Thank You

Well... It's over. 'Call Me Six' is finished!

So I'd like to start off by saying thank you to every single one of you that have made it this far (because I know that sections of this book have been rather tedious). So THANK YOU!

This book has gotten more reads (37.8k), votes (2.82k) and comments (780) than I ever could have dreamed of... YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING! 

I know that one detail (how Uriah is the father) has confused a lot of people so I'm gonna try to explain it the best I can right now. So at the start of the book (before Michael) Tris never used to actually have sex with them - she'd just get them wasted at Harvey's, drag them home and then make them think they had sex. After she actually had sex with Michael though, she slipped into a more destructive phase and went back and started to actually have sex, raking up a total of six potential fathers - which included Uriah.

Now I understand how this section was potentially confusing to many people - and I'm sorry about that - but I didn't want to just blatantly say "Tris started to screw everyone". And it is very subtle but the quote where her new ways are mentioned is in chapter 51, "The drunken facades turned into sober flings...". So... yeah.

And then onto my next point, a question quite a few of you have asked: Did Michael rape Tris? Yes. But this issue is going to be addressed in the next book. Actually it's going to be VERY important in the next book. I'm not justifying rape of any kind and it is always wrong but these characters are supposed to feel real - and in reality, not everyone that is a victim of rape is aware of it, it takes time and acceptance for a lot of people to realise what happened. Tris is a teenager with an already hectic life, receiving shit from many people and seen as a slut - in her mind, the control she lost was the last straw - she could handle it as long as she was governing it - so, when she did sleep with him, she felt like she actually was the monster people made her out to be so had no regrets in actually becoming a 'slut' because she thought there was no resurfacing from the dark hole society had buried her in. Does that make any sense? Oh well.

Any way... Thank you (again)! 

If I'm not following you then comment HERE and that issue will be resolved. (:

There will most likely be a few months break before the sequel comes out because I have final exams starting very very soon, so, sorry about that. But I will make sure to keep you updated on when the sequel will actually come out (you never know, I might change my mind and start it sooner).

Thank you everyone!
