 EcoWitch-Cum-Slayer to the Rescue...Again!

Frankie Rosenberg has enough on her plate, let alone saving the residents of New Sunnydale…again. Her grades have lowered since becoming a slayer, she has a complicated romantic relationship with this hot demon nicknamed Grim, and her best friend’s sister keeps calling her childish nicknames that rub her the wrong way. And now demons are flocking to the Hellmouth and acting erratically. The bright side? Cacti can be used for vegan leather!

I cannot express how much I adore this series as someone whose experience with Buffy the Vampire Slayer only derives from the spin-off Angel. This is such a fun, action-packed YA paranormal series. You’ve got all the monsters, sharp dialogue, and modern-day pop culture references…what more do you need? In this sequel, we actually get to know ecowitch-cum-slayer Frankie so much better, and I grew to really care for her. She is so unique as a slayer, and that uniqueness becomes her strength in this novel. I also continue to be impressed by the strength and trust exhibited by the Scooby gang as a whole. Multiple times, I was worried that the Scoobies would be frustratingly duped or forced to distrust each other, but Kendare Blake writes a refreshingly supportive group of friends with common sense.

I freaking love this series with all my heart, and I am dying to read book 3 once it eventually comes out. SERIOUSLY. SO. GOOD.
