No More Booklikes, BYE

2.5 stars-** Spoiler** Oh I am so close to quitting this series. I get very little excitement or joy out of it anymore. It just falls flat for me. No, not just flat it pissed me off.

The first 40 % of the book was dull, political babble. Ethan and Merit had a few moments of love but it was just, meh. There was a weirdly placed murder that got me away from the house drama. Why was it weird ? Well, major developments are happening, the house is going under and another house comes to them for help before they really try to help themselves ? I didn't get that.
I was so grateful when I made it to 60 %, Merit was sneaking off, playing Sherlock, and being a green eyed girlfriend. At least things were happening. Then it all went to the toilet, with a major flush. Ethan,(aka) Mr. Wishy-Washy, turned on a dime and betrayed her/their "love" by being a complete jerk. He ignored, he talked down to her, he stayed out all night, he turned on her in public, he doubted her without a conversation. (This is not the kind of man I call sexy) What did she do about it, she took it. When he was over his hissy fit she opened her arms and said it was ok.?!?!?! No, this is not the first time he has turned on her. Really ? What is this ? She used to have one hell of a backbone, when did it wither?

Best part Jeff- he was awesome. ^-^
