These books are good and keep my interest. I'm invested in the characters at this point. I do have some cons though. In the interest of disclosure, I feel readers should know the first 3 books stop at 80% where you then can read full chapter excerpts from other books. These books are integrated with other series books by this author which makes the reading order not work well. I have only been reading this series in order. When I began Shade, I could tell right away, I had missed a thing or two. It starts off in the future where one main character is married to a character from another series....say what? It's a bit confusing and the author does not specify the time frames. It then goes into the "now" time frame for Shade/Lily's story. FYI...this book has a couple of word for word chapters from the first 3 books until 30% of the book. It does finish further along at 94% with the usual excerpt at the end. In reality, you are not getting a full book with each one. I did like the epilogues that went out in time a long way.… (mere)
