Meh.

I’m not loving this story line. The first book was okay. The last one I didn’t love and not really this one either. I wish I was the kind of person to just move onto something else, but I always feel the need to see things though. Oh well. Only one book left. I don’t want to leave spoilers so I’m not going to get into what I don’t like.
