Well, this got me to read to the end so it wasn't completely terrible, I guess. But it was incredibly cliched — though to be fair I hardly predicted every twist, even if I wasn't really trying — and I found the ending disappointing, beyond cheesy.

Also if I'd read each part separately, I probably would've quit after the first.
