- Latest Review: Wise Winston's Walk by Jim Trebbien
When I first read the books, I also fell in love with them! When I received the fourth book in this series as a gift, I decided to re-read the first three. However, by the time I was near the end of the fourth one, I was getting a little bit tried of reading the same thing over again. Next time, I might have to take a little break in between, I think.

The third book was less than satisfying. If it hadn't been for Gideon getting his two cents in, it would have been a blunder and a 3-star read at best. Getting his point of view saved that book as far as I'm concerned. I think I gave it 3-stars when I reviewed it.
Then rumors start that the fifth and final book was going to be out in June of 2015. Then it was said we wouldn't have to wait "as long" for the fifth book. I read the last book on November 24, 2014. Well, here I am again waiting.
Every now and then, Day throws out a snippet as if we're starving animals desperate for a morsel of food. I find that to be egotistical on her part and insulting to her readers.
In my opinion, she should have had at least half of the next novel done before she released the previous one, if not had the entire series done and ready for release at timed intervals.
She's not that great and I'm not the only one who is angry. I know after I read the final book, I will never read another thing she writes.
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I'm with you when it comes to wrapping it up. I would can the whole thing today if I didn't have so much time invested in it.DLiteReader wrote:I loved this series for the first 3 books. The WAIT...OMG...THE WAIT.. I have ready so many other books in the time I'd waited for the next book to come out that once it did, it was good... not great due to the fact that I kept thinking really there is like 10 pages left and I'm not feeling a finale...Another book... NOPE I'm done... I can't stand when authors stretch it out... Is not a muscle folks and I've stretched too far. SNAP..Not even going there for the last book. CAN it, WRAP it Up..

I think Sylvia Day is so full of herself, she can't see straight. I know how much time it takes to get a book out and before she released the fourth one, the fifth one should have been under construction. All of this waiting is BS. After I'm done reading the final book, I am done with her forever.

I haven't read the last book yet and I will but I did take a look at the reviews. I rarely do that before I read a book but considering the price of this, I wasn't sure if it was worth the money. Overall, it is making three stars and some of the reviews are pretty hostile.TracyW wrote:I love this whole series. I am looking forward to buying the final installment (this weekend hopefully!) One of my favorite differences in this series v. 50 Shades of Grey was the shared problems between Gideon and Eva. To have similar childhood traumas that helped them understand one another but also caused problems. Itbwas a constant source of passion and conflict that kept the plot moving along.
I'm angry with Sylvia Day anyway for dragging this out so long and making people wait and wait. That's a sign of a big ego and being too comfortable with your fan base. I will do my best to keep my personal feelings out of it and remain objective but I was annoyed with the fourth book.
I've got too much time invested in this to stop now. I will read the final book just to finish the series. After that, I will never read another book by Sylvia Day as long as I live.
