Review: I'm done with Addison Moore

I'm getting to a point where I'm actively going to stop buying series unless it's clearly sold as a standalone trilogy OR each book in the a series can also function as a complete stand-alone.  I've enjoyed this series overall but all 7 (and a half) - now 8 not-so-good books could have been so much better if they were condensed into one decent book. it seriously gets my goat when I've finished book 7.5 in a series (yes THIS series) and the tale is still not resolved.  It makes me realise that the author is just milking me for every cent they can because they think I'm enjoying the series and will potentially keep buying books into perpetuity as long as they don't resolve the story....Perhaps I'm being too harsh but it leaves really a bitter taste for me when I've read book 7.5 (at least the author had the decency to be too embarrassed to call it book 8 in an unresolved plot) and now have to wait for the author to finish writing the next book.  It tells me she's going to keep stringing me along as much as she possibly can.  If she had resolved it in a standalone trilogy and then released another standalone trilogy with the same characters at a different place in their lives I would feel less exploited and far more inclined to support the author's future work.As it is I can say with absolute certainty that Addison Moore will not see another cent from me.  Heck in some of the books in this series virtually nothing even happened!  I was clearly caught in a trap for beginners by this author but rest assured, it won't happen again.  Not only will Addison  Moore not see another cent from me but in future I will always be weary of buying series of books anything other than standalone trilogies from ANY author.  Now that I have learnt that there are some authors here on Amazon who are just out to "stick it" to their readers I will be far more weary even if they get good ratings.  Addison Moore gets one star on every book in this series for teaching me a valuable lesson.  Addison Moore is a shameless charlatan and I was taken in by her, I implore you, ignore the ratings, this series is going to cost you a lot of money and it's really not worth it.
