Ravenous by Sharon Ashwood
5.0
Before I get down the business I'd like to quote the very first sentence of the prologue 'cause it made me laugh out loud: "Being the evil Undead wasn't fun anymore. For one thing, it was increasely hard to get a library card".
Ravenous takes places in the a world were all the supernatural creatures are out of the closest and lives among humans. Vampires, werewolves, ghouls, hellhounds, witch are all at the party. Honestly after reading the first few chapters I was scared to feel strangle by the overload of supernatural creatures involved but it wasn't the case. Every creatures fits perfectly within the mosaic Ravenous is, hat's off to Sharon for pulling this off.
To make a short resume, Holly is a witch, she's working with Alessandro, a vampire, to get rid of ghost nuisance, but she's gets involved in more then she bargained for. A demon is in town and she's got to do everything she can to put it back to hell before it destroys everything on it's path.
I really love the characters Ashwood created because they are all so real, they have shady past with their very own demons (literally and figuratively), their weaknesses and their dreams. Holly has some major problem with her magic due to some events she lived as a child, but as no memory of what happened and it's interesting to see her struggle and evolved through the entire book. Her love life is also very complicated, which adds a little spice to the story!
Ravenous is a great debut novel, if you haven't put your hands on it and you love Urban Fantasy with a spoon of romance and a touch of sexuality you'll love it, so go get it!
