While I don't really like the stories of the October Daye books - I'm not a big fan of mysteries - I do love some of McGuire's characters, especially anyone who's a Cait Sidhe, the king of the Cait Sidhe, or just a regular cat. This author is a serious cat person, which I love seeing in a book that'...
I was really hoping we'd get more answers about Toby and her past, and see her resolve some of her current issues. But her daughter and former fiance are barely mentioned; neither are the events surrounding the disappearance and return of her liege lord's wife and daughter. All we get instead is a r...
My thoughts:It's Friday and I will try to make it short, you know I always say this but never quite managing making it really short ;=)Anyway, yay, one more October Daye book for me to read. I really liked book 1 and wanted to read more. The series is just so dark and she doesn't always save the day...
I love the writing, the characters and the world building. I don't like wandering around in circles while people are being killed just because she didn't ask the right questions. The "mysteries" were so obvious to me, that the plot became when is Toby going to figure it out instead of what's happeni...
Sylvester, Duke of the Shadowed Halls has called October with a problem. His niece, the Countess of Tamed Lightning, isn’t answering his calls. He would check up on her, or send one of his top officials – but the neighbouring duchy of Dreamers Glass would take that as a move against them – and war w...
I'm listening to the audiobook. I also have the paperback. Wow, was the book book depressing or what! All of these vital, seemingly immortal people dying. To me there was way too much focus on whether people were alone or not. The two people that were the bad guys, the author was trying to get...
Initially an improvement on [b:Rosemary and Rue|6294549|Rosemary and Rue (October Daye, #1)|Seanan McGuire|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348390125s/6294549.jpg|6478937], especially due to the integration of unusual beings from folklore enjoyable--the Bannick cleaning scene was a fun interpretation o...
OY. Waaay less than stellar. A muddled plot & muddled detecting is all you’ll find here. If I was her liege, I'd order Toby to retire from detective work. People around her drop like flies. I cringed at the body count. She pontificates throughout the book about how she's a professional and everyone ...
**Synopsis** Toby Daye is a half-human, half-fae changeling and has been considered an outsider from birth. After getting burned by both sides of her heritage, Toby has denied the fae world, retreating to a “normal” life. Unfortunately for her, the Faerie world had other ideas… Now her liege, the Du...
I really wanted to like this one. I did. But it was bloated and Toby was a terrible detective. Let me explain...Toby gets a visit from Sylvester, her liege, just as she's starting to pick up the pieces of her life from the last book. He wants her to check on his niece, January, over in another kingd...
