I love Verity so much, and finally meeting Alice was a SUPER treat! Loved this one!

This one is so great. I love the reality show behind the scenes stuff, and also Alice and Malena and Pax.

Back in the InCryptid world and once again with Verity Price as our narrator. After 5 books and multiple short stories in the series, I find myself hungry for a new POV in the series, as much as I loved Verity in the first few novels I wasn't entirely sure that she needed another book dedicated to her and Dominic (more exciting is the news that the next 2 novels are dedicated to Antimony!).

We're back in the dance world, unable to let go of her Valerie persona, Verity is returning to the screen for Dance or Die, All Stars to see once and for all if she wants the dance life or the InCryptid life. In true form, she's quickly pulled into a multi-murder and the beginnings of a snake cult sacrificial ceremony.

The true star of the novel is however, Alice Healy. I need more stories about her STAT.

This book is so FUN! Verity heads for Hollywood to appear on a dance reality show and has to combine all her time on camera with stopping a snake cult. I liked how much and how well she works with others here: Dominic is a constant and (surprisingly) welcome presence, and Malena and Pax are great additions to the team. That is not to forget Alice, Verity's grandma, who shows up to be super badass. I had an absolute blast with the book, and the wonderful Aeslin mice were a sweet bonus!

This one gets 4 stars for the mystery being less obvious than some of the others in the series.

Wow! Middle got a little slow for me, but wow did it pick up! I was able to guess two of the villians, but the others were a complete shock! I love how I'll be screaming or crying in one sentence and laughing the next. Love this series! I also really wanted to see all the dances she does...

Still enjoying this series very much. I find myself more worried about the mice through the various hazards than anyone else, but that's not new, the mice are adorable. It was fun re-visiting Verity, but now I'm definitely ready for more of Antimony.

Verity's back! I loved seeing a take on So You Think You Can Dance, and all the drama backstage. The stakes are raised beautifully, though I'm not sure about the decision made at the end.
