I have to say again that Dorian is my all time favorite character in this series. I dont care if he has motives for his actions he is the most honest and forth coming character in this book. I understand him and know that while he loves Eugenie his main concern is in getting more power. We know what he wants and that makes him easy to understand. Loved what he did in the end of the book though it will bring trouble in the next. Yet while I love Dorian Im so tired of Kiyo already and this is only the second in the series not sure what I want to really say about him other than seriously he cant love her that much after what he does in the end of the book. I just dont understand how he validates himself his actions are so hypocritical its not funny he can kill in defense but not for love really that makes no sense. And he can live in both world but Eugenie can, oh and he can embrace his whole self but Eugenie is not supposed to. He acts like he being part gentry is something she can just turn off like her powers are not a part of her when they are as much a part of her as his fox is him. Seriously him not wanting her to use her magic is so hypocritical its not funny I just cant stand the way he acts. Im not sure I really felt that sorry for Eugenie at the end of the book I mean sure it wasnt exactly the best thing to happen to a person but then she goes yo-yoing again between Kiyo and Dorian really I wouldnt have expected that after everything. Sad to say I wasnt impressed with the way Eugenies character acted in this book. I think she should have figured this out much sooner than she did she should have been paying better attention or at least listened to Dorian when he told her what to do.
