There is a lot of push and pull between Elisa and Connor. I liked his POV moments and I can see myself liking him more and more as more of himself is revealed. Connor came off as kind of a playboy/bad boy. I am glad that WILD HUNGER brought her back there pretty quickly. I was a little surprised to see that she didn't live in Chicago. You can definitely see some of her parents in the things she does, but I felt like her personality and thinking brought a heavier feel to the book. On the other hand, I love Merit and Ethan and I kinda didn't want to follow someone else.Elisa is Ethan and Merit's daughter, so I was expecting her to be pretty bad-ass and she definitely was. On one hand, I love the world of the Chicagoland Vampires and was excited to jump back into it.

Martin, but another oft-cited offender is the Kingkiller Chronicle series from Patrick Rothfuss. Of course, the big example here is A Song of Ice and Fire from George R.R. However, over the years, many have been burnt over some series whose authors spend a great deal of time on the next entries, leaving fans to meander on over to other series that are also…unfinished.
