Now this is a surprise. Puppy play in an urban fantasy book without written by a male author. I have to admit, other than a few male authors who write BDSM, I tend to avoid reading male authors because I just don't get their writing voice. It grates on me. Unless it's a truly gifted writer like ...
It took some time for this book to pick up. Dakota sure attracts the guys. That was a bit surprising to me mainly because she is unconventional in her look (mohawk, tatoos, 6'2")and also mentioned (more than once) her bisexuality. I liked the shout-out to Borders in this one. (I miss Borders, mo...
This book really has me on the fence. In reading books in the urban fantasy genre, I tend to look for two things: interesting world-building and good characters. Frost Moon does have some appealing world-building – the alternate reality called “Edgeworld” where the vampires, shifters, and magician...

There was a lot of suspension of disbelie...

Man, this was one of those books that threw me for a total loop - fifty or so pages into it, I was so thoroughly put off by this book that I wanted to quit. In fact, I did quit for a little while there to read Holly Black's much better White Cat, but that's a rant for another time.Anyway, by the tim...
