Just throwing out a random character analysis on simon since I noticed a few things that I don’t really see people talking about: (SPOILERS I GUESS)

-Simon’s introverted nature aligning with his hobbies of staying in his room; painting miniatures and writing books.

- Simon specifically mentioning the fact about people bringing casseroles to a funeral and him getting visibly angry/annoyed when Hazel wants to hold a proper funeral

- Calling the cat by the first name and going to her when he needed something.

-Simon mentioning how the cat abandoned him, i.e., left him behind.

- Him getting angry at Amanda for treating him like a child, and getting angrier once she started counting down. Physically throwing a tantrum when she did.

-His reliance on his close knit-relationship with Grace and the only other person he was close to was the cat.

-Him arriving on the train when he was young, probably around 10 years old.

-Kind of a minor one, but him being insistent on killing Tuba and showing little remorse when he did. Tuba, who was blatantly a mother figure to Hazel

And most important of all, Book 1′s subplot of Tulip learning to adjust to her new family dynamic with her parents divorce.
