And once again Caite has delivered. Bravo!!! Well said. I agree. Reread? As in take away time from a book that is screaming to be read because it has been on the shelf for a few months, years? Not this reader. See you next Monday.

But I totally understand why she did it, and the series is better for it (not to speak ill of the dead or anything). I do like my thriller series, but I do get frustrated when I hear of great ones that are seven, ten, twenty books into it. There are a number of them that I am completely invested in, and have read them all.

When Elizabeth George had the audacity to kill off one of her major character's wife, some people were so distressed, they vowed not to read any more of the series.
