I was 100% invested from the first book, so I needed to keep reading all of them. The grammar and spelling is atrocious. So much so that it's a real struggle to read and probably took me a lot longer to read because of it. The ending gad so much more potential. I was really disappointed.

He describes himself in this book as a blond hair, blue eyed boy. In reality, he is dark,overweight and cross eyed. Hardly the cute boy image. Interesting is he adopted numerous boys in adulthood. This is a work of fiction. Any research into the writer reveals as much.

so hard to believe this is true, what a brave person. My only downfall is the spelling mistakes, you have to guess what some words should be. Would also like to know what happened to the rest of the group?
