I know this series is deeply divided between people who lurrrrrv it and people who hate it, and I'm definitely in the lurrrrrrv it camp. It's interesting, because the main character isn't particularly likable, but she's so interesting and has a glimmer that she could get her act together eventually and actually be a tough, yet likable person... there's some decency about her. The spelling of her name annoys the crap out of me, though: "Faythe."
