People usually know before reading book six whether they'll love the series or leave it. Many seem to get hooked either with book 3 or book 4. What I find the most interesting is that many, like myself, who got hooked with Summer Knight - book 4, weren't that thrilled with Grave Peril - book 3.
Also book 2 seems to be universally "tolerated" - I don't remember anyone saying they "love" that one. Unfortunately it has caused a few to prematurely give up (but they can usually be convinced to try again. ). Its an odd duck in the series overall.
That is interesting. What I love about the books is Harry. If I remember correctly he is prominently featured even before Summer Knight

For me the charm is not what is written (about), but how.
