Grave Peril by Jim Butcher
4.0
I liked this book. I was surprised that Michael was such a prevalent presence and I found I really liked him. Susan is growing on me, this whole godmother subplot is intriguing. Ghosts are always an Achilles heel with me. I think the series might be gathering steam. We shall see. I didnt like the out of the blue problem solving, but the villains of the book and the stakes were great. We’ll see how the plot develops.
I will acknowledge the issue other reviews have taken with this book, that Harry seems to be coming across a bunch of sexy sexy ladies, be they friend or foe or side character, and pass it like a ship in the night. I don’t care if the ladies are hot & described as such, especially dealing with vampires - I mean it might make me roll my eyes or skim forward a bit, but really wasn’t too distracting. The women are still major players in the plot, and because Harry is loyal to his girlfriend, it never gave me skeevy vibes.
