In my opinion the storyline is pretty good but some things get tiring to read. At first I thought her writing style was poetic and I absolutaley loved reading the first few chapters of the first book, but then it started getting repetitive. There are a bit too many flashbacks for my taste, like we know about all of jullietes trauma and all that jazz. I think the writer was just trying to fit in extra words with a lot of these crossovers from the past and in my opinion they weren't needed. The story is actually pretty good though. I am up to the last book right now but I don't think I'll finish this series. Also some of the charecters are really well wrote, like kenji lol.
