i like Pierces's series but...

from someone who is current on all of Pierce's series, i find that the stories can get really redundant and repetitive. the main characters need growth. they all experience way too much in life to be so stagnant. with this au pair series, does this young lady learn from her experiences at all? she's brave and intelligent one minute but completely absent minded and spineless the next. develop more around the anxiety or leave it alone. develop more around the sleep walking or leave it alone. at this point both these factors are just a nuisance to the character and to us the readers.

Same story, different title

I very much liked the 1st book in this series, but as you move through book 2 and this book, book 3, it's like listening to the same book with a different title. I'm personally disappointed. I haven't decided rather to return the book or not but I won't be listening to anymore books in this series should more come out. I still love Blake Pierce and I'll continue to buy his books. Just not from this series. The narrator was fantastic and I'd definitely buy books read by her again!
