I'm afraid that the latest books I've chosen to read all suffer from the same problem: Identity Crisis This tends to happen when a story you're reading is supposed to be something else entirely, but the plot and characters end up taking a completely different path, leaving the reader com...
I'm always leery of starring a book years after I read them because I don't want to overshoot/undershoot based on a fuzzy memory. What I can say is that C. E. Murphy's trilogy was one of my first urban fantasy series and it stuck with me enough that I can still remember the books five years later. C...
I bought this book on a whim and am so glad I did. I really enjoyed it more than I thought I would. The story was fast paced, with loads of fun characters, lots of funny moments along with serious, and I really enjoyed the tension between Margrit and Alban. For me, it was just a fun read. And I love...
3.5 rounded up to 4.I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book as the Negotiator trilogy isn't one that I hear mentioned very often in my book reading circles in comparison to her more popular Walker Papers series. So I was a bit nervous about starting it; wondering if the reason there was n...
I'm listening to the audiobook and also have the paperback.Was it me? I just did not get the attraction to Alban. I have this strange fascination with gargoyles so you'd think that mysterious stranger plus gargoyle I'd be all over it. But he seemed to be begging Margrit for time, attention, to "h...
An interesting first book of a series.The urban fantasy books I've read in the recent months usually feature vampires, werewolves or some sort of shifter as the hero so I must admit, it was gargoyle aspect that drew me in. (Not to mention that I'm a fan of the old Disney Gargoyles series.)The switch...
This book started a little slow for me. I was over halfway through before I cared much about it. The mythology and world-building drew me in, but I didn't care about the people for the most part. Margrit only became interesting once she started spending more time with Alban. There were so many diffe...
A lot of UF features a strong female protaganist who can fight with magic, swords, teeth and occaisionly claws. Heart of Stone is different. Margrit Knight's strength lies not in the physical or magical, but the mental. As a lawyer with Legal Aide, she's learned the value of determination, stubborn...
I can't stand this woman. Running in the Park at night doesn't make her brave, just TSTL, specially when she probably does it everyday, at the same time and running a similar route. Has it never occurred to her that a group of thugs can ambush her? What would her 'speed' do for her there? And that i...
