Technically, it actually doesn’t have a name, it’s just a bunch of italics, but whatever. It’s a prologue, and I know perfectly well that it’s a prologue.

Introduction I love Ancient Egypt. Ancient Egypt is honestly my first folkloric love. While I first cut my teeth on Greek and Roman myth, it was with Egypt that I really started to like it. The cosmology, the focus on order against chaos, and just the fact that everyone loves Egypt, but not many people …
Last part was awful. Truly and completely awful. But don’t expect anything that even resembles a reaction against what we saw. So, Zoey and Neferet met one another again, and Neferet really must have moved quickly or Zoey must have been a lot more lost than she’s letting on. Or the Casts just don’t really …
Last chapter, people talked, we met Neferet, our villain Dumbledore expy villain, and there was some talking about how special Zoey was. Also, her name is now Zoey Redbird, because that’s way cooler because it’s more Native American and therefore more…special. This is the sexual assault chapter. I hate this book.
Hey there everyone and welcome The Negative Reader! Here is where I host my sporkings, snarks, essays and other literary nonsense and have a good time while a stare into the abyss of bad popular literature. I hope you sit down, have a cup of tea and enjoy!
Alright, last chapter, Zoey was a complete and total idiot, nearly got herself killed, hit her head, and had a dream about Nyx who, for some reason that’s beyond me, has decided that Zoey is the specialist little snowflake to ever fall from heaven, so she’s going to be Nyx’s ‘eyes and ears’ in the …
This chapter was physically painful to read. It offends me as a writer, as a folklore nerd, as a Lit major, and as a human being. I’ve been actually putting off sporking it, because I wanted to maintain a professional demeanor when doing it, and I hate it just that much. At least Granny Redbird …
Yes, I’m getting slower. I’m tried of collecting degrees. Welcome to another session of ‘chapters that really should have been cut, but the authors were too lazy to do so’. I understand that the Casts want to have some characterization before things get interesting, but every chapter should do something to advance the plot, and …
Did you miss me? Welcome back everyone. Last chapter, nothing much happened. We had Zoey be a twit to her boyfriend (?) and her mother and pack a bunch of thongs while shaming her brother for a hobby that she doesn’t like and her sister for…essentially doing what Zoey wants to do. This chapter does …
My Internet is working again and I’m ready to take some pot shots. Welcome back everyone! In our last chapter we met Zoey, her ‘friend’ Kayla, who mostly vanished from the plot afterwards, and Zoey was turned into a vampire. She also whined a great deal. In this chapter we are taught that men and …
