The Realm of Literacy

Great sporking, I liked it! Zoey is basically a mass contradiction in terms: she'll call everyone else out on their behaviour to the point of sanctimony, but no one better dare call her out for anything! Oh no, everyone must bow down at her feet to the point of being sycophantic, everyone at the House of Night is! If Zoey actually had and valued true friendships in this story, her friends would be calling her out on her being 'destined' to be High Priestess or whatever, because that's what real friends do! They'd be telling her 'Woah, don't choke yourself on all those smug fumes, because you're being real high on yourself.' even Damien, who I like as a character, is reduced to a sycophant in this chapter! >.< and I hate that Zoey absolves Erik of anything else 'cos, hey, he's 'hawt,' it's fine!

And why does Erik like Zoey anyway? For people to actually have chemistry, they actually have to have some sort of connection, a mutual understanding and find a common ground. Here, I have seen no evidence of that. It's just the Casts shoving the two hot leads together Just Because 'cos only hot people should ever get together (so forget you, Elliot, you have no chance! :D). Zoey didn't even take up Erik's offer to go watch Star Wars with him because that's 'ewww, ttly geeky, y'all!' :D That scene could have started laying the foundations for their relationships.


I think you should start keeping a Sanctimony Count in this story, because it's just choking me now! :P
