I just don't like Aryal. Quentin was okay, but nothing to really write home about.

I also don't like that Aryal can be a complete bitch for a year to Pia, two years to Quentin, and then just decide not to be a bitch anymore and there are no consequences. Pia should hate her. Dragos shouldn't like her so much, given how shitty she is to his mate. And the bitchiness is just fucking petty. Pia stole A PENNY. She even left a penny in exchange. It is bizarre to hold on to utter hate over that, especially now knowing she did it to save her own life, and she also has saved Dragos's life several times. Pia has done more than enough, by now, to earn some trust and respect.

And then, when she does decide to stop being a bitch to Pia, she asks her if she'd at least consider cutting off the cheerleader ponytail. So, is that the reason she hated Pia then? Purely superficial, petty bitchiness? Gross.

Then she's inconsistent. Despite loathing Pia over a penny, when she finds out what Quentin did, she literally does not care. To be clear, I'm not talking about the Pia thing he did - I think he did the best he could in a bad situation there, and while it was the wrong call, he needs to let it go. I'm talking about the petty criminal stuff. So she hated Pia with fiery passion for A PENNY but doesn't care about this?

Real consistent character, here. And by consistent, I mean consistently a complete asshole.

Bleh.

I read it because I wanted the progression of the series. I'll never read it again.
