About book The Arrangement 13: The Ferro Family (2014)
I read all the way through to this point without writing anything, so I have no idea now where one started and another one ended--thus the combined overall review here. I thought this story line had some potential. And obviously, I kept reading to find out where it was going to go. In the last few, maybe 11, 12, and 13, I really thought it was wrapping up and I was going to be content with the ending. BUT THEN I READ THE END OF 13. Forget it. I am finished. No way that closing scene went along with how I pictured Sean's personality developing. Okay, so I was holding out to review these until the last book... but since she keeps this story going... and going..., I figured I'd write my opinion of the series thus far. So, I kind of have a love hate relationship with this series. It started out very strong, then it just got annoying, or to the point where I want to indignantly say "really?". Some books I would give 4+ stars, some I'd give 1 or 2. So I'm leaving this rating somewhere in the middle. One thing that I can't complain about is that the books definitely keep you reading. Maybe it's because she releases only a few chapters at a time (or so it seems), and maybe it's because she cleverly ends EACH one on a stupid cliff hanger. But, that's getting really annoying right now. I mean... REALLY? Do you really need to break these up into 15+ books? I know this is a fan based series, where she keeps writing if the fans want it. I can understand that... but now I feel like the plot is channeling something of LOST in order to keep the plot moving forward. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if she were abducted by aliens and then the wakes up and it was all a dream. Okay... so it's not that bad, but I had to get a little rant in. I just want the series to be finished with already. Or atleast... when a book comes out... it takes me more than 1 hour to read it. Yep... these take me about an hour to read. So, anyways... rant over. With all of that being said, I will still keep buying these because I'm curious to know how this ends... so I guess in a way, HM Ward knows what she's doing. (Sigh)
