I’m reading The Diabolic

[feotakahari]

If this weren’t YA, the girl the MC is absolutely devoted to and would kill anyone to protect would be the love interest, and I’d be here for it. But in YA, I’m afraid it’s going to be the guy who pretends to be an asshole to hide how empathetic he is. Then again, I suppose a high-empathy person pretending to be low-empathy would be a fun opposites-attract with a low-empathy person pretending to be high-empathy . . .

Edit: The girl’s dead. The guy just proposed a fake marriage. Fuck!
