Oh boy, Ch. 41 was the final straw for me and I'm gonna drop this now.
I know lots of people dream about a grand, fateful love - "the one" that will make us happy - but stubbornly clinging on to the first person you fell in love with, like Linox does, is not healthy. If you need to kidnap someone in order for them to spend time with you, you need to let go - not actually through with the kidnapping. Go see a mental health professional, son. This ain't the way.
As for Amy, goooooooood...! I just wanna smack her. No one gets to decide what makes someone else happy. Linox told her over and over what would make him happy, yet she refuses to listen and stubbornly clings on to the notion that she knows his needs and wants better than himself. Which is stupid and arrogant. When she doesn't listen to him, her "self-sacrifice" just comes across as a shallow attempt at playing matyr in order to make herself feel better, and I can't stand it.
The author clearly wanted a dramatic love story, but with each new complication I just get more of the feeling that these two shouldn't be together. If you wanna draw out a love story that's not very interesting on its own, it usually works better to let the surroundings and/or circumstances be the separating factor, rather than the character's stupidity. At least that's my opinion.
