I'm not a love-triangle person. Never was, never will be. Adelice spends a fair amount of time figuring out her relationships with brothers Jost and Erik. I really wanted her to focus on the dangers around her instead of worrying about Jost's or Erik's feelings. 
 And while a LOT happens in ALTERED, I still have a ton of unanswered questions. I'm disappointed that I still don't know how or why Adelice can manipulate the Weave. I don't know how the Weave affects Earth and Arras, and why it's there in the first place. All the twists and turns in ALTERED brings up a new crop of questions, and I'm wondering how many will get answered in the last book. Lastly, though there's a lot of action packed into the book, I still found myself bored at a few points, and wanted Adelice to get up, quit moping over a boy, and do something.
