I think I prefer her romance novels. The writing style is fun, conversational and approachable, but stretches a little thin sometimes. Sometimes a humorous aside is just distracting from the stuff that's really interesting.

4.0

Not my favorite from Kingfisher, but that’s probably because I was so dang scared the whole time. Fantastic writing, as ever, and great characters with bright, light moments of levity. All of that was overshadowed by the  Lovecraftian terror, but I think that was the point.
