Oh I HATE him. I really HATE him

Alex and Mrs. Jones at Ian's funeral.

Can you imagine having to live up to John Rider? (Even in his death, he still haunts the narrative) I don't know, maybe there was some resentment from Ian, always trying to be better but never the best. And then suddenly, John and Mary are dead, and he now has custody over his nephew who looks and acts so much like his dead brother at every turn but now has to swallow any feelings he had about John, negative or otherwise cause he has to take care of Alex cause they're all they have of each other now.

proper gentleman

i love that Alex is truly incapable of not getting into trouble. every opportunity he has to show someone up or piss them off he takes it 😭😭

Alex Rider + Hugs with Alex

Ready for the ball!

i can appreciate that his most secure method is to see what works without thinking things through 🙌👑

finished ark angel. this book was so crazy and i wanted to post a billion things more, but settled for appreciation of how alex’s snark never changes

honestly it is no wonder MI6 has been able to take advantage of Alex twice already, considering how every adult in Alex's life continues to fail him :[

fighting for my life trying to finish ark angel with that 1 person waiting behind me 😭 i want to believe it’s the same person who has been waiting for every other alex rider book i’ve checked out, too. we are in tandem 🤝
