I would think though that the storyline in the first book would be continued on in this book. Strange way to do it, but the author must have her reasons. I need to finish that first one, I got it because of Jane Eyre, and yes, the cover. And the fey. Oh, those fey! Maybe I'll wait for the whole series. I'm such an impatient waiter. Do you think it steals from the enjoyment of the book if you're not waiting with the rest of the series lovers for the next book??BURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-20485456220999557482013-12-02T18:03:23.668-07:002013-12-02T18:03:23.668-07:00Oooh, I had to go back and look at the previous bo...Oooh, I had to go back and look at the previous book through your link.

I hate being left with more questions than answers, so I might just skip this or wait till the rest of the series releases before giving it a try.
