I think I officially dislike this series.

I feel like Leon and Max have an unhealthy relationship. And I don't like reading about sex, even as vague as it is in these books. I just don't like Farrell.

I enjoyed it.  

I'm a little frustrated by the way Mary immediately accepts a supposed break up without a fight and goes straight to I'll leave you before you can leave me.  I get that it's a defense mechanism in response to trauma, but still.

It's also a little frustrating to not really have a sense of how much time has passed or how old the characters are.

The shift to slowly being more active participants in history is an interesting one.   I hope we see the emotional/psychological ramifications of it.
