Twisted

This series is getting more and more twisted as it goes along - and more interesting. The characters are engaging, the plot intriguing and the world complex.

I am absolutely loving this series. I love how the characters have grown. There have been many moments of gut wrenching, nearly sobbing, ready to throw the book if it actually happens, then pick it back up and continue earnestly moments. The cliff hangers are absolutely brutal. What's gonna happen to Malcom, how will his father retaliate? Is what Lillian just told Rory true? And is Debrah right? Ahhhhhhh!!!!! On to the next one!

3.5. The plot thickens a lot in this book. Glad the characters are finally growing more too.

It is starting to slow down now, but I assume it is a pacing choice.  Big excitement in book 1-3, slow in 4 (and 5, I'm at 35%), and then I assume it will pick up again straight through to the end.

This book felt a little boring. I don't know if it's because I have read 4 books in this series back to back but this one one felt slow and anticlimactic. And that's crazy because she was accused of murder. That's kind of a big deal and they were all acting like it wasn't. It was just a weird situation and I don't think the characters reacted like they should have.

The last book doesn't come out until October... The thing is, I read so, so many books that I sometimes forget about smaller series like this that I have started. I should have waited to pick this series up until it was finished because I will probably never pick up the last book. I will honestly probably forget all about this series by time October 23 comes around.

Thats not to say that I haven't enjoyed this series, because I really have. It was kind of a surprise to me but I really enjoyed them. It's been a long time since I have read physical copies of books so quickly. So that right there says something because I could not put them done. I do recommend. I just read so much that I forget things.
