  Considering it would take me forever to say the different things that I loved and hated about each one of these books I will just try to pick out the things that carried through the whole series that I liked or didn't like.

Cons:  
  I had only one main major complaint against these books.  In each one a Christian begins to fall in love with a non Christian.  While everything always ends up alright at the end, I still it frustrating because that is not what always happens in real life.  

Pros:
  Each book is well written making it a pleasure to sit down and read one.  The basic overall story of the family itself and how they became a family is very unique which makes for an out of the ordinary setting.
  While this may seem silly, I love how all the males in family are very chivalrous and protective of the females.  That really raises this series in my eyes.       

  Even with the few problems it has, I would give this series five stars.  It is definitively one of my favorite reads of all time.

  Recommended for ages 16 and up.
