Again, we can't give halves, but I felt a little better about bumping this one up to 4 stars. I felt like this book had a lot of promise. That is until I hit a certain chapter (that I won't say where it is but I'm sure you'll feel the same when you hit it.) I guess, the best way to explain is that I wasn't AS irritated about being strung along and getting little answers as I was in the second book. I heard the next book is the final book and I'm a little scared that we'll never know what ever really happened between them to make this all happen in the first place. I have to say, though, this book made me want to actually purchase the series instead of borrowing it from the library.
