Board Thread:Magnus Chase & the Gods of Asgard/@comment-32364251-20171218232652

BTW, I haven't read Ship of the Dead yet and don't know anything about it because I've been trying to avoid spoilers until I read it.

With that in mind, I actually despise Alex Fierro. I don't know why, but I just hate the fact that he/she/they are the most revered character or whatever in the books. They just show up in the second book and are special because they're a second child of Loki??? Sorry but I'd rather Samirah be Magnus' love interest. I know she's betrothed and has a lot difference from Alex and maybe isn't really focused on anymore in the books but I'd take her over Alex anytime.

Also, I'm completely supportive of LGBT+ and diversity and common sense, but I think that Alex is only liked now because they're genderfluid/trans and that makes that super special or something. It's not like they're the first ever LGBT person in Riordan's books.

Sorry for the rant,I love Magnus Chase and everything I just really don't like Alex. Please don't hate  me ;')
