3.8 AVERAGE


Thoroughly enjoyed this. Review to come.

June 2015 Re-read.

When I read this the first time I was my first foray into UF. It took me awhile to figure out the world and I think that's why I only gave it 4 stars. On this re-read I am already well versed in this world so I was able to sit back and enjoy. It's really interesting to go back and see how far Kate has come in the series. I loved this book on my second go around and just like I thought it would I immediately want to dive into the next one.

3.0

Probably give this 3.5 stars. It starts out a bit rough and uneven, but fleshes out towards the end. Pretty good entry into the urban fantasy genre. I grabbed the first 5 or 6 books for cheap off an amazon sale, so we'll see how the rest of the series progresses.

The world building is top tier and the FMC is a BB with a sense of humor. Definitely got sucked into this series and have reread, listen to and then listen again but dramatized. Good lore and the vampires are mindless, murdering corpses which is kinda refreshing lol.
