Once Bitten, Twice Shy

The continuing adventures of the freakishly beautiful supernaturals
3.5 stars This is book 9 in a series. It’s really not the place to start. If you want to join in at the beginning, start with Angels’ Blood.

I haven’t read the first one, but […]
It’s OK to be Genre Fiction, I Promise
This review is for the audiobook version of The Quick, by Lauren Owen. This book wasn’t what I thought it was going to be. I don’t think that it’s what it thinks it is either.

The blurb described the book as being about a woman, Charlotte, who goes to London after her brother disappears and discovers a few […]
