This is one of the dumbest things I've wasted my time with.

This one leaves you hanging, though - it's definitely just the first third of a complete story.

The characters were cardboard and acted like they were in high school (they were around 30 by the way). I had t ... (continue)

It was cheap and the plot sounded interesting. It's ok.. I'll keep reading for the sake of finishing the whole story.
