I read this book a while back, and did enjoy this book, the characters were well written and I enjoyed the story. I did struggle with the start, it was a bit slow. But as I got further into the story I did really enjoy it. I have now read all 4 books, and re reading again. The second time round there is something about the first book that I struggle with through the first part, but overall I still thoroughly enjoy this book and have grown to love this series :) I love the characters and how they are written and their development along the way.
