One Book Away From an Episode of Hoarders
I enjoy horror, thrillers, urban fantasy, steampunk, science fiction, mystery, speculative and dystopian fiction, humor, and paranormal romance (I like more plot than smut in my fiction, although I'm definitely not a prude) among others.
about me In October, every October, I marathon 100+ horror movies so I'm not as active that month or November either (NaNoWriMo).
My rating system is as follows:
1 star - I'd like my time back, thank you.
2 stars - I didn't care for it but I don't feel cheated. I'm not likely to subject myself to any of this author's other works.
3 stars - I enjoyed my time in the story and will more than likely read another book by the author some day.
4 stars - I really enjoyed this story and will definitely be interested in anything else the author writes.
5 stars - The real world didn't exist while I was reading this. I will likely maim anyone who interrupts me while I'm devouring everything in this author's bibliography
So, its been a little while since I read the first couple of Dresden Files books so it took a little while to recognize that there seemed to be some back story missing from the series. On the positive side, It didn't take long for the humor that I love in this series to pop up. "We've both got into the blue beetle. He got into the red door, I got into the white one." made me chuckle out loud. I thought Thomas was a pretty interesting character. I still love Bob. I even liked Michael, but this story didn't really draw me in. I started reading Saturday and I put the book down during Bianca's party. Sunday, still reading Bianca's party. Monday... yep... still at the party. Considering I read a lot of 500+ page books in one sitting, I think it says something.I had to force myself to finish this one, its not my favorite. Even so, I might read the next in the series. I really enjoyed the first two and tbh, I'm kinda curious about what's going to happen next.
