THE ATLAS COMPLEX SPOILERS

ik it’s hinted that he’s alive when james wessex sees platinum blond but i still get irrationally angry every time i think about callum nova’s potential death. he wanted to die of high cholesterol not stupidly being shot by tristan’s dad because he stupidly made a deal he wasn’t even going to go through with.

if ur gonna let callum think all those happy eureka! thoughts right before his “death” and then end up killing him, it’s not bittersweet, it doesn’t fulfill his character arc, it’s just lazy writing. olivie blake wanted her readers to be upset, to immortalize her series with “oh what a great series” but this is NOT the poppy war or six of crows. bc those books had enough of the characters’ actions and fast paced plot to keep the reader engaged and it made the deaths kinda worth it. callum’s death wasn’t worth it.

and then she writes a cheap way out, one that blake hopes to keep people talking about her book more, one that gives her an easy way out if she gets accused of burying the gays (which she does THREE times in the series). she adds the platinum blond to the security camera and she hopes her book will live on with a #ambiguous! just like iwwv did.

i just don’t understand if 1) that was her plan all along in which case it was a terrible idea or 2) she got heavily influenced by social media and the fact that the TV show is in the works (which ugh reading the book it’s so obvious she was thinking about the show the whole time)

and also it sucks that she never told us what callum/tristan did in book 1 when tristan said “i see u” and callum let him in??? idk if she even knows what happened herself tbh

The Atlas Complex Spoiler (My thoughts after a couple hours reading it)

Now that I think about it, the final book doesn’t really explained the whole library or how it woks(?) Or maybe I’m just that dumb (probably).

And I would be a liar if I didn’t think about that last sentence, who is the voice behind it, Atlas’s or the library’s (at this point, y’all probably know that I’m really dumb)

Now about Atlas’s death… the fact that 50% into the book I didn’t even question it is just straight fool of me (you got that right, guys) bacause I thought Atlas was really on holiday or take a break or something. Because when Libby’ asked for forgiveness to Tristan, I thought it was about Ezra’s death, BUT IT WAS FOR ATLAS’S AS WELL. (this was what shocked me to the core, the plot twist that I was SO oblivious to it).

But what I really like is seeing this caharcter again for the last time, their interaction, their thoughts, their wittiness.

olivie blake should have never give me that last crumb, now I'm going to eat her whole marzipan house and live rent free in the space between delusion and canonical events

like: "a glimpse of platinum blond winked before the lens." ???? that useless pathetic blond man is totally alive and peeling oranges for the love of his life tristan caine.

[kaleninya]

Listen, there’s a LOT of things to be said about the actual ending of Atlas Complex, but Callum Nova unequivocally served cunt and comedic gold right up to the last second.
