Amazing series! Slightly confusing but good! I began this series last year, but this year had to reread it, and now it makes more sense! Love this!

I liked the first two books of this time travel series, but books three and four really slowed down. I was excited that "Caught" the fifth book was again a better book. I was interested in that book. There are 8 books total in this series.
