ok, so I liked the overall story and the direction the series is taking but I have a few issues with this installment. First of all, I don't mind my romances having some angst... but I like to part of the angst, not looking in from a totally different perspective. It should draw you in and make you feel it rather than being an all knowing observer fored to do nothing but alternate between rolling you eyes, growling, and yelling at your e-reader.For example, Bryn managed to misinterpret EVERYTHING! I get that she has severe self esteem issues (for no apparent reason so far in the story) but I mentally challenged monkey would not be as oblivious as she is. Ditto for William.Secondly, I feel like some pretty important things have gone undescussed while other less important things have been discuss at length.And finally.. this book tries to hard to be a YA read. I don't understand why though, I mean in the first book it was the same way but then all of the sudden John calls Bryn a whore (seemed so out of place when all of the characters say "darn"). The in this book they are constantly saying things like "I'll kick your you-know-what" and "Let's get away from this cluster f-bomb" I am not editing, that is how they said it. Who talks like that?Sorry that this is vague but it is the best I can do without spoilers and to me, a review that includes spoilers is not so much a review and more like a book report. I will be reading the rest of the series because while some of the dialogue and character's comprehension levels bother me, I like the story being told and want to see how it ends. Let's hope the final installment is better.
