Great humor. Interesting story. This was the first book I have read of her's and I enjoyed it. These days it's hard to entice me to read a series (too many wonderful books to read by too many wonderful authors), but I'd think about reading another one!

We are the granddaughters of the witches you could not burn-Unknown

Wow! This book was so freaking good! I was, unfortunately, losing hope and interest in the adventures of Charley Davidson and co. Like I have said in previous reviews of this series, I was getting burnt out by Reyes. I was so tired of reading loooong paragraphs dedicated to how orgasm-inducing his looks are. After this book, I am still not the biggest fan of Reyes—I was getting really creepy, overprotective Edward Cullen-vibes in this book.
Getting away from Reyes (because God knows he gets enough attention in the book), I honestly did not expect to enjoy this random amnesia storyline as much as I did. It was really hard to put down because it was really fun reading about lost and confused Charley in NY.
However, this book seemed a lot different than previous installments in the series. For the majority of the book, we weren’t following Charley, but rather Janey Doerr. Maybe because of this fact it kinda felt more of a Stephanie Plum-esque storyline. But whatever! I still looved this book!

This book did not do it for me. Combined with the disappointment I felt about the previous book, I will have to reconsider whether I want to read any more of this series.

Huh, Charley with amnesia. Like a reset for the series, at least for one book. It was a nice reprieve from the investigation into the prophesy. And yes, once again I read a book in a day.

Wow, another fantastic book in this series. I was a bit hesitant starting this 9th book based on how the 8th ended and the description. After the having already read 8 books in this series, it sounded like we were basically having to go back to the start with Charley, Reyes and the gang. Luckily, that was not the case, and instead got a bonus of experiencing Charley and Reyes fall in love again and to learn even more of their roles in this and that dimension. Great book, can't wait for #10!!

Just reread in preparation for the 10th book coming out later this month. The books are so good that I have a tendency to rush through them and forget some of the details. I love this series and all the characters! I can't wait to see what happens next.

It took me a while to get through this one because life got in the way, but I really enjoyed it. I loved the change of scenery and pace, and how well characterized Charley is. She might have amnesia, but she's still herself and it's delightful. I also really appreciated how well Jones used our knowledge of the world and of the rest of the cast to signal what was happening off screen, even when Charley couldn't put it all together.

Can't say I like when Janey is being a bit flaky. Will I help or will I stay invisible and safe? But even with that it was nice to have a more "happening" book this time. The last few chapters were sad and happy. The stuff about promises and Gods was confusing but makes the desire for more in this series so much stronger.
