  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

These were interesting stories. I liked the themes and ideas and all around enjoyed reading them (I wish Lucas's and Karina's would have been a full size novel, I admit)... but I failed to really get into any of them. None of them made me *feel*... but they were a fun time distraction.

Nocturne: 4.5 stars
Ascension: 3 stars (so boring, I can barely remember what it's about as I'm writing this)

Ilona Andrews' site says that this short is their "most controversial" and YEP I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY. Yeesh.

This is a anthology that has a story by Nalini Singh that takes place in her Guild Hunter universe. It's called Angel's Wolf. The characters aren't any of the mains from the series but it's still one of the best shorts I've ever read. I find that the only shorts I'll read are ones that relate to series I'm already reading. It's the only way I can read one without feeling like I'm being short changed on story. This really was a heartbreakingly good story and I generally hate anything that makes me cry.

I read this book solely for Andrews story Alphas: Origins. I enjoyed this one, Henry a side character was great! Lucas the main "hero" (he's more of an anti hero). I see him as the more aggressive 'grrr' alpha male that's prevalent today. But he's an alpha male with a conscience. At least in my opinion. I am kind of on the fence about him. But it is hard to fully draw out a character like Lucas in only 100 pages. I think I would have had a better opinion of him if this was a novel. But I did enjoy this bit and if the Andrews team were to say write more, I would have no qualms about reading more.
