Terri ♥ (aka Mrs. Christian Grey) (mybookboyfriend) | 43 comments This is on my list along with Vampire Academy's as one of the best series I've read. I loved all the charaters. I loved Mark from the begining but had a soft spot for Jace. And Faythe was totally a kick ass girl like Rose.

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments I liked this series, it was fun and Fathye really changed over it.

I just read a story in Chicks Kick Butt  by Rachel Caine that featured Abby. It was great to see this side of her.

I agree that this is a great series. I think the series was the perfect length with a messy ending (just how I like it!) and leaves the door open for spinoffs. Though, I liked Jace much more than I liked Marc...


Terri ♥ (aka Mrs. Christian Grey) (mybookboyfriend) | 43 comments Jace/Marc, they were both great in their own ways. I love how they handled each other in I think it was the fifth book. Too funny. Anyway, another great series that came to the end. Although, I could have read more about her, I respect the author for her vision. And ending the series when it was good and not letting it get bad before ending it.

I agree that she ended it rather well. She didn't let the series get too long which could have been very bad. Some authors should follow in her footsteps and end their series asap.

However, IMO I do think that some books in this series were just a holdover to get to the last book. Looking at each one as a standalone, some just had no purpose except for adding one more book to the 6 book contract. When a book starts in one place, goes 300 pages and ends up in the same place I don't find that useful or contributing to the overall series. That bothered me.
