Alright so this is going to be a quick review because I don't have much to say about this series as a whole. I don't even know if I want to continue on with it. My sister recently got these books as a gift and she apparently really enjoyed the first one, so I wanted to see if they were any good since I did hear a ton about it on Booktube. When I finished the first book, I was greatly disappointed. The characters were pretty flat and the plot was very generic. But yet I continued with the series so I could get more books towards my 2015 goal. The second book was again pretty dull but it did interest me more for some reason. And my favorite character is introduced in this book so that was a plus. Then the third book happened and I actually really liked this one. It was a definite game changer for this graphic novel series. It was action packed, the characters went through some minor character development, and this book was just way more enjoyable than the previous two. I don't know if I'll continue with this series. I probably will if my sister gets them so I can read her copies, but I definitely won't buy them on my own. So it might be a while until I read the fourth book.
