I really shouldve just stopped with this series but other peoples glowing reviews made me feel that the payoff would be worth it to continue. For me, it was not. I found the characters behaviors random and that the leads were overly harsh with each other regularly. There also seemed to be some mistakes in the plotting, but its possible i just misunderstood something.
