[Jesse Towne · Rating 2 out of 5]

I really did not enjoy the style of writing for this book. Plot lines seemed almost forced. Towards the end I did feel it got a little better. I would not seek out other books in this series voluntarily.

I wish I hadn’t committed to this series because I’m bored with it. I’m not a quitter but I will take a break.
