I read this one a week ago. I wanted to let it breathe so my thoughts on it cooled down. Well, here they are:
After many very good chapters the story gets boring because it focuses on the shocking value from the plot twists, adding nothing to the strong points of this work, but giving away what made it good.
The characters are the most affected by this. And in a series where the strong point is that one, you have little left.
This is the one where the story points to coming to a conclusion, but it's already too late. Four or five inexplicable plot twists too late.
The story has never been feasible by any standards, but at least it was interesting enough for a while. It jumped the shark long ago.
