I don't have a ton to say about this one. I read the first installment in the series years ago, and sort of liked it, but didn't want to spend any money on the books. I keep a vague eye on them, but I haven't actually seen them go on sale. I don't feel like these UF series have a ton of rereading po...
Note: Even tho this is Book 2 in the series, it works fine as a stand alone. Toby Daye is a PI and a changeling. Her liege lord, Duke Sylvester of the Shadowed Hills, sends her to his niece’s domain to see what is up. Toby and her sidekick Quentin come across far more than they expected, the pile of...
I enjoyed this installment, but I saw a lot of negative reviews for it so I was a bit weary going into it. A lot of people were complaining that this book was "too long" for the content and I can totally see that, but I definitely think listening to this series on audio would be preferred if that's ...
Tough one to review, this one. I liked the story, the characters and they mystery but I think it was too fat. Could have been much leaner. I have the same problem I had with Toby in the 1st book - she seems too young for her supposed age. There's a lot of repetition as some other reviewers have ...
I need to clarify my adding this book to the transhumanism bookshelf. It really ought to have it's own category of transfaeism, but the fae really act so much like humans that I just couldn't find the real difference.In the end, I decided to let the characters climb their own trees.The book was soli...
Its weird trying to review this in retrospect, keeping in mind this second read-through while also reaching back to my feelings when I first read it.My main thought, both times, was how much more solid this book felt than Rosemary And Rue. Toby felt more in control and like her actions were what led...
Rating: 2.5 StarsA LOCAL HABITATION is a disappointment after the promising start of ROSEMARY AND RUE. While Toby is a changed woman from both books - her acceptance of her role in Faerie a relief - the plot of this novel is its ultimate downfall. While ROSEMARY AND RUE could be slow, it kept me gue...
A Local Habitation is the second book in the October Daye series, and while it will make sense on its own, I would recommend reading the books in order. October "Toby" Daye is a changeling, half human and half faerie. Unlike many other changelings, her magical abilities are quite weak, and it takes ...
Not quite as good as Rosemary and Rue but still a good story. October Daye is sent by ylvester, duke of the Shadowed Hills, to see what's happened to his niece January O'Leary, who he can't get into contact with for a while. This should be a routine assignment, but it turns into a locked in myster...
