My Thoughts
This is one of those series that you just can't put down. Don't get me wrong they are nowhere near easy reads, but you are engaged in the story from the very first book and won't be able to put it down until the very last one. You will feel a range of emotions as you get deeper into the life that is all about Tori. This is her story from beginning to end. It's in your face from the start. You want things to get better for Tori, but you can't help wondering when the bad will bypass her so she can get on with her life. What you learn is that the only way that she can save herself is to fight the ones making her suffer for both herself and the people in her life. And damn does she fight. This series is beyond what I expected and I absolutely loved it.
I give A New Life Series 5 hearts!
