Undead and Unwelcome
by MaryJanice Davidson
I couldn't put this book down. I started reading it on my lunch break and thought Well, I have to say Betsy sure is a hard character to like at first, and man - reading her thought process is IRRITATING! When I got home from work and got cleaned up and into my jammies I found myself picking the book back up even though I intended on knitting and watching the Olympics. Pretty soon I am sitting in bed and flipping the last few pages of the book. Sometimes books will do that - they will just sneak up and get you!
I love Vampire books - and I think part of what I love about these in particular is that you don't have these dramatic tortured souls running around. They break the mold just a little bit. (I would say the mold was broken by Buffy the Vampire Slayer - but Angel was awfully darn brooding and tortured so... yeah.) So after reading umpteen vampire books where the 500 year old master Vampire is still weeping and afraid to love because someone he loved in the French Revolution died in a really bad way, it's sort of refreshing to read about The Queen of Vampires who loves her footwear and her smoothies.
Not that they don't go through situations here. In this one Sinclair and Betsy head to Cape Cod to return their dead friend Antonia to the Werewolves and face the very real possibility of a Vampire/Werewolf war. While this is happening Betsy's sister (daughter of satan - literally) wigs out and starts killing people. Good Stuff.
