GAH! Why do I allow myself to keep reading these books! 
 Seriously, I'm severely disappointed and yet have to read the next book to find out what happens. How is that even fair? 
 I get so attached to specific characters and despite the absolutely horrendous writing, poor story, and disgustly obnoxious other characters I still have to find out what further happens. 
 This book felt very forced. The storylines came out of nowhere without any history or reason or information. We were just supposed to accept a story with no information, which was hard to do. Twists that had no logic and were just a convienence to the author were unacceptable. 
 I honestly feel like this story was meant to be a three book series, it got a sudden boost somewhere along the lines and the author tried to milk it and stretch the story out as much as she could. When you write such a long series you NEED to have an outline, general points that you meet, and LOGIC. Somewhere along the lines, probably between book 3 and 4, this series lost that. 
 I would not recommend this book, nor this series, nor this author.
