A review by yourfriendryanj
Carpe Demon by Julie Kenner

2.0

Ok, so let me start off by saying I'm not 100% sure how I got this book on my Nook. I know I downloaded a sample because it was billed as if Buffy grew up and had kids, but I'm not sure when that turned from a sample into a full novel.

And that's the type of book this is. One you have to make apologies for.

Honestly, the idea here and the world it's creating is interesting. I also like the characters in it, though it is drawing heavily from Buffy. However, this novel focuses so much on the mundane moment to moments of being a mom and so briefly on an action that I got board almost halfway through and just gave up.

I'm writing a review because if they made a Carpe Demon TV series, I would watch it. I feel like there's an excellent world for a tv series in there. I just need to know more about the fight with the demon in the first chapter and less about the rigatoni she's cooking for a dinner party
