Okay, so this is getting super complicated and slowly I am becoming frustrated with who all knows what and what's the end game.

I'm still trying to figure out how you never remember a twin?! Like you forget a whole half of your person...how?

I'm hoping the boys get their act together by the next book because this is starting to spiral with all these secrets. 

Also that disgusting man is just horrible..ugh. I can't wait till he gets his, hopefully it's fiery!!
