I think it's my 3rd or 4th time reading it?
Anyways I still think Mielle deserved what she got. Sure she might have been influenced by the adults around her, Emma particularly, but just how great was the influence? If Emma had been truly important to her then she would've tried to protect Emma, save her life at the very least. But she didn't. Why? Because she cared more about her noble reputation. Same with how she pushed her father down the stairs. She showed no guilt, no remorse, in fact she even thought her father should've testified against Aria or say that Mielle didn't push him? You know what people call someone like her? Entitled brats.
Of course, Aria's no angel or Saint but she isn't as horrible as she thinks she is. She started with wanting to use the people around her (Jessie, Sarah, Anne etc) but she never did anything that would hurt them for her own benefit. Everyone FL hurt/destroyed deserved it. Mainly because they didn't deserve to be nobles. While Aria did seize the Roscents property, I would say it's better in her hands than in the Roscents hands. Better as in for the common people.
