carolynf 's review for:
Rosemary and Rue
by Seanan McGuire
This is another book that was on my TBR list long enough that I developed a completely inaccurate idea of what it is about. It is NOT a book about two female PIs named Rosemary and Rue who solve crimes together. It is about a half faerie PI named October who is cursed by a dying faerie to solve her murder. Rosemary is for remembrance, and rue is for regret.
The story was very engaging and I thought the overlapping worlds were very well done. People who like the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher or the Felix Caster series by Mike Carey would probably like this series as well, although when October Daye does magic you don't get a whole recipe like in those other series. She just calls up power and gets a bad headache after. But she definitely has a tendency to get over her head, and gets out of it again in completely unexpected ways.
