the whole thing about marianne being forgiven and why a lot of the readers aren't able to accept that ending is because we were never given a reason to think that she can be forgiven
we've spent so much time and so many chapters seeing the effects of what she did to the main character and how hard it was for the mc to even think about accepting the love of her new family because she was traumatized of what happened with her previous one, and now we're supposed to just accept her apology?
if she was a sympathetic character and given enough establishing plot points throughout the story maybe we would have considered it, but most of us right now are just dealing with the fact that this seemingly unforgivable person just had their apology accepted, it's unreasonable, and this just seems like she managed to brainwash everyone for one final time
then again, i'm reading this for free so who am i to judge?
