This book was a bit of a disappointment - I still enjoyed it but I expected it to be better. It has all the right elements: great, likeable characters, interesting plot line, a well written setting. But Marcy seemed a bit self-centered, a prone to crying a lot. The "love triangle" isn't going anywhere and I'm tired of hearing about how gun-shy she is, so the lack of forward momentum in that area makes for a lack of interest on my part. I won't say I've given up on this series, but I won't be eagerly awaiting the next book either. When it comes out, I'll give it a read and decide then whether to keep on going.
