I enjoyed all 6 books but feel that the lead character, Rae, is often times childish & impetulent. Difficult to imagine her really understanding what real love is at 16-17 yrs of age.
Very interesting. You don’t want to put it down till you finish. The momentum kept building. Good reading
generic
Amazed!
More for the teen set. I found myself wishing she was more suspicious but liked her as a character. Only just into the 3rd book.
A teenager girl version of Harry Potter. Definitely targeted to teens with the same poor attitude towards adults that many of the genre have. Decently written if you can get passed all the teen angst, woe is me, adults are stupid and don’t understand, bull that seems to be required nowadays.
Definitely one of my favorite book series! One of my favorite writers!
Good story for younger audience.
