Fair enough for the fifth book. I know there is supposed to be a second girl but  I didnt think Ransom Riggs would just disregard her or even just plainly make Emma exprience emotional damage from all of this, even though it was not her entirely fault that she fell inlove with Abe then with Jacob.. as if he didnt love Emma so much with the first 3 books. Riggs wrote Emma so well and she just like threw her off away from the pages and Jacob is unexpectedly not empathetic with her as if suddenly all the time they spent with three books following inlove jsut because he is falling inlove for another girl in for a few pages in short 3rd book of his. I could care less who Jacob ends up with but can we at least give Emma a proper treatment


I swear if Emma ends up loving Enoch and Enoch loving her.. idk what to do… such a terrible ending for such Emma
