there was 0 reason for this book, I said this in my review for book 3, but you know what about 50% in all the plots had been closed out nicely would have been perfect place to end, instead nope we have half the book left, I would be fine with this is it were a standalone. but this is the 4th book in a series to suddenly add 2 new plots that would have normally taken a whole book and a half in the rest of this series is pathetic. 

I read this series to read the Carter kids series and I do plan on reading it at some point but this book/series has put me off chole Walsh's other books.
