The covers for this entire series are beautiful and I love the premise. But I hate love triangles. Especially love triangles that turn into love hexagons and dodecahedrons. So... I'm not going there.

I saw the reviews were just so-so but it was on sale at Audible so I said, "Why not." Pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the book. I figured out who was the bad guy pretty quickly. He was my #1 suspect from the beginning, but still the book was good. I'm planning on reading and/or listen...

I am really feeling conflicted about this story. There are things that I truly dislike, but then I find out that those are related to the bad guy ... so I feel like it's the 'right' thing because it's the bad guy after all, and he needs to be killed. Okay, this will sound confusing, and since I cann...

Anna Strong used to hunt the undead now she is one of them. She is trying to hunt down the rogue vampire who turned her. She also has two men in her life, one human and one Night watcher.It's pretty predictable, fun, but predictable.

Liked:* Anna is a pretty cool character. * The vampire mythology is intriguing, and I would like to learn more (which I suppose will come as Anna learns more in subsequent books).Liked Less:* While I liked Anna, I felt very distant from the other characters. They were very one-dimensional to me so I...

This has the potential to be a pretty good series, but the author really needs to watch her substitution of possessive nouns for plural nouns, or get a good copy editor who will catch those errors for her. I was up to 15 when I quit counting.

This was pretty meh to me. Could've been better, could've been worse. Sort of like an old Sillouhette novel in terms of easy/quick reading and it runs smooth enough to get a 3 for readability.However, I find myself not really caring about Anna. I mean, I cared and was on her side up until the sudde...

This book was just weird from start to finish. I have read approximately a bajillion vamp/werewolf type books and series, and usually each one has a certain element in the mythology that makes them stand out. There is just NOTHING that makes this series stand out. Not the lead character, not the sec...

Synopsis: Anna Strong can't face herself in the mirror not because she left her teaching career to become a bounty hunter or because she's torn between her boyfriend and a new suitor, but because she's been turned into a reflection-deficient vampire. After being savagely attacked by one of her marks...
