he Accidental Demon Slayer was a surprising book to read. So many Urban Fantasy books tend to stay well within their standard parameters of action and fantasy in an urban setting, but this one spruces it up with a lot of humour that made this book fun to read, as well as keeping it from ever being boring.

This was an interesting read. I like Angie Fox's writing style it's really easy breezy, but this story didn't hold my attention like her southern spirits series. It was still enjoyable just something felt off for most of the book. I'm not sure if I will be continuing on with the series or not yet.
This book deserves a 3.75. It was a very interesting idea, but the heroine bothered me at times. She seemed to be a very typical Fantasy Romance leading-lady. With this said, I will read the second book.
Another light-hearted romance featuring the impossible. I was totally sucked in by the JRT on the cover. Who talks. Ms. Fox does an excellent job of giving a hyper terrier a voice.
This book owes a lot to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and I won't lie, I kept picturing Sarah Michelle Gellar as the main character. However, for me, this added to my enjoyment of the book instead of detracting.
I accidentally read book two in the Demon Slayer series first so I had to go back and catch up on book one, The Accidentally Demon Slayer. I loved book two so much I couldn’t wait to see how Lizzie and Dimitri met. But for some reason, this story just aggravated me. I can understand that slowly a story will be explained but how Lizzie’s grandmother and her grandmother’s biker friends kept information from her, I was more frustrated than intrigued. I am blaming my mood more than the book because I loved book two so much so I want to continue reading the series, but this one just didn’t do it for me.
Entertaining
Entertaining read. Cute characters and a little off beat. Lizzie discovers on her 30th birthday that she's a demon slayer and goes on the run with her grandmother's biker coven, a Griffin, and her little dog, too. Mayhem ensues as they try to save the world from the demon Vald.

Let me just first say that I love the dog Pirate, he is the bes part, funny, and always talking. And just look at the cutie there on the cover, I am not a dog person but I am a pirate gal.
Lizzie lives a normal live, she has a job, a home, friends, no man though, but as the is about to turn 30 she is ok with it all. Then she is contacted by her grandmother who she has never met, and suddenly there is a demon in her toilet and they are on the run. She is told she is a demon slayer and now they are out to kill her. What is a girl to do, run and fast. Her biker grandma, pirate and Lizzy heads down the road, where they soon will meet hunky Dimitri.
Lizzie is nice, and I like her. She is taking this demon slaying business as anyone would, not good, and that is understandable. Her grandma is crazy, who could not like an old biker chick who wears the clothes and listen to the music. The talking dog, well I do love him. Then there is Dimitri, a griffin, and a good looking man. All alpha, rough and I would sure fall into his arms. There is an attraction between Lizzy and him at once, and I sure like it.
I like the gang of biker witches, different and they fit the story. Then there are the werewolves, and gotta love those too. I am sure more paranormal beings will show up the next time. In this we see imps, water nymphs and of course demons. Nasty demons from hell and they should stay there.
Much action there is not, she is still learning and mostly trying to keep her head down. But there are some fighting. There is also hot romance, I promise you that. There are some laughs and funny situations promised. All in all a good book with a mix of everything, it will be fun to see what will happen in book 2. Lizzy and pirate is a good team, and I do wanna see more of Dimitri.

This book just didn't click with me. The pace was too frenetic, I think. And life is to short to read books you don't like, so...
