Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews
3.0
Second time through:
Since I've read the whole series, I obviously wasn't as confused with the world building here. The problem is, I just think this book is a bit of a mess. The series definitely gets better starting with the next book, and then just continues to go up, but even knowing and loving this world, I just really don't love this first book.
First review:
I liked this, but it felt like it was not the first book in a series. Like it was at least the second or later book. There wasn't really a whole lot of good worldbuilding. I don't need to be spoon-fed details when I read, but I would at least like to be introduced to a world, instead of just thrown into it.
There definitely was some interesting things going on here, though. So I will continue on with the series.
