Gillian Key: The Hateread - Key to Justice, Chapter 2

Gillian Key: The Hateread – Key to Justice, Chapter 2

There’s one word that summarizes this chapter. These books have two speeds: terribad and bland with some almost not bad sprinkled on. This chapter is the latter. It is short but manages to be boring AF at the same time. We’ve reached the point in the story where Gryphon is so clearly trying to pad the narrative to fill a fourth book. As a result, she spends time on a couple of things, like…

Gillian Key: The Hateread –

As I stepped onto the caboose of this bullshit train and considered all that had come before, it hit me. I always assumed Key to Redemption was a reference to Perrin until I re-read the biologically impossible and in all ways offensive last chapter, in which Gillian regains her virginity. Gryphon is talking about Gillian. She’s supposed to be this sexually liberated person who chooses her…

96%. I hope to everything this is the last chapter. We start out in Drangal’s head, and I guess we’re still meant to think this guy is just some schlub and not the villain we’ve ostensibly been chasing for three books. The narrative gymnastics continue, though this time it’s with all the grace of a mating giraffe: Csangal had not been in the area for over a century but he was certain that the…

89% of the way through the book, and the plot, having blown its wad a hundred pages ago, continues to be flop flaccidly around like this poor guy’s trunk: This chapter begins with some supremely awkward writing. Aleksei needs healers, so Gillian runs off to find some, meeting Luis, Oscar, Trocar, and Finian along the way. It’s two pages of “hey, I need healers! Oh look, healers!” that could be…

Gillian Key: The Hateread – Key to Redemption, Chapter 20

It just occurred to me that the title of this book actually makes sense, given Perrin’s redemption and all. Too bad the book itself is utterly beyond redemption. Gillian, Daedalus, and Trocar go to the village inn to meet Dracula the client, and we’re treated to a paragraph of POV from Sexual Harassment Panda Daedalus telling us Aleksei should be “on her ass” about smoking. Nah, that was Tanis’s…

So while Gillian and Perrin were banging in an alleyway, they were being spied on by an unnamed vampire. Dracula is “Gillian’s mystery patient.” Wait…what? I have a vague recollection of a mystery patient, but it sure hasn’t been mentioned since. Oh, ew. The man she’d coupled with was a monster, yet she had been docile, compliant, a lovely receptacle for the semen that the Vampire knew had been…

Right, so, Aleksei invites Pavel, Kimber, Helmut, and Trocar to share in Gillian’s trauma help Gillian get over her trauma in five minutes. I just have to point out that Pavel, Kimber, and Trocar were also there and may also be traumatized by the event, but whatever, let’s not care about the effects of plot events on anyone but Gillian. There’s a couple of paragraphs about what’s going on in the…

Another day, another sex scene, so fair warning. Gillian is being massaged by a”strikingly handsome, naked man” after fencing practice. Wait…fencing practice? And which man? It’s Perrin, apparently, and four paragraphs later, we find out that “several weeks”  have passed. What an awkward time transition. We’re given a review of Perrin’s background in the story as if we’ve been asleep for the past…

The “Ripper Busters” head back to the castle. Apparently it’s “dangerously close to dawn.” This would be an interesting moment of urgency if it were actually followed through. Aleksei, Perrin, Daedalus, and Helmut (remember those two?)  come out to meet them and they seem upset, though Gillian doesn’t know why. Uh, presumably because everyone is dragging up to the castle covered in blood and…

At the beginning of this chapter, we have some explanation for the inappropriate flirting between Gillian and Aleksei: She was grateful for Aleksei’s little bit of loving levity back there. It had helped get her head in order, calmed her anger, and made her realize how thankful she was that Aleksei was really, really trying to understand her and her many-faceted life. He wasn’t happy with her at…

Are we finally going to get some action and real conflict? Are we really?? Brings a tear to my eye, it does. Gillian tells everyone there’s another body nearby. What? How the fuck does she know this? I flipped back several pages to try to figure it out, but I can’t. Is this a publishing error or has Gillian randomly developed prescient powers? Gillian asks Aleksei to summon someone who can track…

I don’t know how we’re going to follow the circus that was the previous chapter. I really don’t. Let’s find out! Gillian’s clothes are shredded, so Aleksei gives her his shirt, which is long enough to be a dress. They discover Tuuli has returned to her fey form but apparently doesn’t mind being called “Moose” because objectification is fine and dandy. Tuuli’s curse was broken because she’s “loved…

my little sister meows anytime the n word pops up in a song and it never fails to make me laugh because she does it extremely loud whenever we're in the car with my sister's boyfriend who thinks it's okay for him to say it (no matter how many times we fight about it). it pisses him off and he tells her she's ruining the flow of the song. she just shrugs and does it louder next time. she's 11. theres nothing better than seeing an 11 yr old ruin a 23 yr old douchebags day

This is good. Very good. Congratulate her on my behalf plz

[Image heavy post and very NSFW] Y’all, this is a must read. Walking back toward the house, Gillian reflects on the dimensions and texture of Perrin’s wang when she realizes she has other patients waiting. Remember her other patients? Me either. Then “her empathy registered a weirdly hollow shift in the rightness of the world.” I can’t decide whether I like this phrase kind of maybe a little bit.…

Fair warning, image heavy post. Well, here we go with the “who’s supposed to protect who” argument. Gillian notes they’re outside the compound (idiot), and Perrin is alarmed that she might be in danger. There is nothing I can say about this that I haven’t already said. Repeatedly. So let’s please, please get to the lame sex. Nope, we get to see him push her around first. Awesome! They go back to…
