I think it would be confusing if you haven't read the others, Debbie. In fact, I'm not buying it yet because I still need to read the 4th and 5th ones. I never read any until last summer, when I read the first 3. I really like the series, but they are long, involved books, so you really need some time. Maybe if you enjoy reading, you should hold out for when you're on the road and read them all. In the meantime, I think donating it to the library, even if they have a copy or two already would be good. They probably have a long reservation list to get it.
