This is a first-time read for you? I just read this series for the first time myself from late December through mid January and really enjoyed it. The best part was having people here on BookLikes to discuss each book with as I posted my reviews. They were very good about not spoiling anything for me. I liked all the books, but the fifth book was where the series reached the “taking over my life” point for me.
Yes this is a first time read for me, I don't know why I waited so long! I started last summer but this was the first big one in the series so I put it off because of the intimidation! I think this is the book where things really get moving.
I think my all time favorite is the last one! You will remember me when you get there! *wink*
