"Dear Lord, is Fitzpatrick secretly a drooling fanboy who’s getting off on constantly describing his female protagonist’s state of undress? Cut it out!"
Given how she constantly seems to be shoving Nora into some sort of sado-masochistic porn plot, making her as victimized and helpless as possible, I really do wonder.
"If Patch can’t feel anything physically, then how can he feel lust? Pardon my ignorance, but isn’t lust a very physical sensation? Sure, one could argue that it’s also mentally and emotionally-based, but the main thing that distinguishes it from the rest of the Seven Deadly Sins is that it’s carnal and more physical than the others. And even if one argues that lust *isn’t* a physical sensation, at least we can agree that the *goal* of lust is physical. This makes no sense!"
That's a good point. Most of the sequel consists of Nora whining because Patch can't feel her kisses and whatnot. He shouldn't be able to feel aroused at all.
Unless the idea was that he thought he felt genuine love but was mistaking it for brief infatuation. Which is infuriating because it sounds like how Gethesemane wrote off Davy Jones and Calypso's relationship
"*head-desk* This girl has just found out that angels and fallen angels are real and all that she really cares about is whether or not her crush is still dating someone? Good grief."
Oh, you think she's bad about that here? Just you wait until the sequel. Nora has got to be the clingiest, most insane bitch I've ever read, and I'm including Bella Swan in that statement. Yes, you heard me. Just wait until you see what she does when it looks like Patch is interested in another girl. It's damned scary!
