I do feel the same way
I borrowed the first two books from the library. I was considering to buy them, but when I found out it's going to be 12 books, I passed on that.
The library doesn't have the third book (yet), but I don't really care... If they do get it, it'll be nice to read them, but if it won't get in the library, I'll never finish the series. Too bad, because the start of the first book was very promising and got me 'hooked' right away... That just slowly changed a bit during the first book, but threw me off at the second... (OK, it's late, I'm tired, sorry if I'm not clear

)
