Having given up on Hamilton’s Anita Blake series, I figured I would give her Fae books a try. Unfortunately, A Caress of Twilight is no better than the Anita Blake novels. Just like her vampire books, this novel is oversexed for no particular reason. The story is weak and after about a dozen chapter...
Another great book in this series and a reread/relisten for me. Tons of action and we learn lots of secrets from other courts, including the demi-fey and the seelie. Lots of new secondary characters, but none that I love. I'm glad to see Kitto come into his powers. Narration was great again.
I re-read the Merry Gentry series during the summer. I had read it for the first time some time in 2007 or 2008, before the last two books were out. There are elements I like in this series - why else would I re-read it? The way Merry isn't a pampered fairy princess, but someone who tries to make...

Overall Thoughts: It was okay. Just okay. I also can't take this series seriously.The sex scenes are really boring to me. It's like she just copy and pastes early ones with slight changes. There was a fertility ritual for a faerie/goddess, which was actually kind of neat. Also Meredith has sex with ...
The first in this series was mildly interesting, enough so that I figured I'd see if this second book was better. Unfortunately, the cheesy sex scenes found in the first book were even worse in this second. This has to be the most godawful erotica? writing in the history of life. I didn't know wheth...
Upon re-read, there was a bit more page flipping than book one. Merry has started to "school the boys" on how to be a good person, and that's always a bit of a yawn. Also, the police work in this book is a bit out of place. Did enjoy everyone's powers coming on line.
Doing a re-read with Audio - listed to the first one again for a challenge and now I have to continue...looks like it will be a "re-listen of the series"
This was OK. At first I was actually liking it better than the first one, and thought it would end up being a 4 star. But it just sort or petered out. The second have really dragged, and although I love the romance aspect and Merry's interactions with all her men, the plot seemed like an aftertho...
