This focuses on Menolly and her past. She has to face her sire and the string of newborns that he has created Earth-side. Menolly is not my favorite of the sisters, but I do understand her a bit more. And I can respect her a bot more after this. Things appear to be spiralling out of control, but there are also other factions that are coming out into the open as well. It'll be interesting to see what happens next.

Harley Quinn, Vol. 1: Hot in the City

Amanda Conner

DID NOT FINISH

Okay. so. I have the third volume of this and wanted to read this in order. But.... I am not sure what I'm reading. Harley Quinn is rampaging through the comic but she is talking to the artist of the comic about how she is drawn or how the panels look. There isn't an storyline at all. Maybe I just don't know much about Harley Quinn to enjoy this.

I thought that this was an adult book, so was very excited about it. But It's more YA and the characters were annoying. The idea is a good one - What is Sunnyvale became Demondale, with the focus on the villains? But the villains aren't really the villains. It's supposed to be a Buffy-verse novel, but the characters in the book do not resemble the characters from the show. I think that this would have been better if A. it was a YA book and B. It was not supposed to take place in the Buffy-verse.
