I should have DNF'd this book but instead I figured I would push through and wait for the plot to improve and for the characters to grow me on. Safe to say neither of these things happened, and I found myself finishing this book irritable and without much memory of what I read.
Not to mention whatever version of a cliff hanger that was supposed to leave you on with the mystery stalker.
 

The short chapters were ridiculous and unnecessary. Yeah I think I'm done with this series.
