Thanks for stopping by my blog today. :) It's great to meet you. <br /><br />I really enjoyed this book too, though I agree with Becky that the 1st 50 were hard to get through.

The themes are more mature than in her other series and the characters are more memorable. It's very difficult to put this one down.
