[Sarah · Rating 3 out of 5]

I really enjoy this series but the number of typos and other errors continues to plague it and keep my ratings from being higher. I don’t mid a few but unfortunately this book was riddled with them…names mixed up, incorrect pronouns, missing words, etc…makes it feel as though you are slogging through a muddy swamp to reach your destination. Having said that, I enjoy the story and characters enough to keep coming back. This book felt a bit like a filler or a set up for bigger things to come. There wasn’t as much action in this one but it definitely ends with an implication of more to come. Regardless of the lack of proofreading I’m still looking forward to the next in the series.

OK but I was expecting more.
