The characters are us. All of us. These books are addictive. I just keep wanting to read more! This book series is one you start and cant put down. Recommend it. This story grabbed me and wouldn’t let go… it kept me up way too late many nights because I couldn’t put it down. Kept me up all night, in a good way, to finish it. The story is compelling to the point of me not being able to do anything but read until I found out how it ended. Edge-of-your-seat reading that you can’t put down. It was a believable plot with the main character so well defined it was like you knew her.
