It's not just her personal life that's in chaos. Doug, Georgina's co-worker at a local bookstore, has been exhibiting bizarre behavior, and Georgina suspects something far more demonic than double espressos. She could use an assist from Bastien, an irresistibly charming incubus and her best immortal friend, but he's giving Georgina some highly distracting come-hither vibes. Georgina is going to have to work solo on this one-and fast, because soon, Doug's life won't be the only one on the line. . .
My thoughts:
I am confused, did the way she works change? I felt the whole demon thing fell apart.
The book was also totally boring, nothing happened! I mean omg, so boring! She did absolutely nothing. Sucked off some guy in a bar, talked to coworkers, spent time with her boyfriend.
And do not even get me started on her relationship with Seth. He must be a saint. I get that this is her work, but uh no you didn't.
I was very disappointed by this instalment. Dull, lifeless, I did not even like her. I will not read more. Calling it quits now. Total second book syndrome. Sometimes I still read book 3 after one of these, but now, nah.

My co blogger loves this series! I've read the first book and I liked it. Sorry this was so disappointing though for you.
ReplyDeleteThe first book was good
DeleteI was thinking about starting this series since I liked Mead's VA books, but I don't think I'd get on board with this and if it's boring I'm definitely out. Thanks for such a helpful and honest review!
ReplyDeleteI liked her thorn queen series, but her VA, no no no
DeleteAh dang, sorry to hear this one didn't work for you.
ReplyDeleteIt happens
DeleteI'm so sorry you had such a bad experience but what do you want, Richelle Mead is no genius...
ReplyDelete*snort*
DeleteBut you are correct, her VA series was so bad
Nothing is worse than being confused. >_<
ReplyDeleteYeah
DeleteI really liked this series in the end! I can't remember this book at all so I can't say more but if you keep reading I hope you find them better!
ReplyDeleteTo buy one more, no thanks
DeleteOh no. I know with this author sometimes you have to be patient. I still haven't picked up this series,. I want to.
ReplyDeleteI fear I do not wanna be patient
DeleteI read Vampire Academy books but haven't tried anything ele from her. VA din't exactly encourage me to try...
ReplyDeleteOh those were baaaaad
DeleteI've never read her stuff. I always see mixed or mediocre reviews.
ReplyDeleteI have never been blown away
Delete"Sucked off some guy in a bar"
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! I actually remember that part, but don't remember the specifics tat book. I listened to all of them close together, so it's all a blur. But I loved it and how it all pull together in the end.
I just could not get over some things, she was flaky
DeleteHope your next read is better for you!
ReplyDeleteIt was :)
DeleteHmm, this series is on the list to read at some point, but I don't think it will be any time soon. So many other good ones keeping me busy right now. I don't blame you for pulling the plug when it just wasn't doing anything for you- too many books out there to slog along with ones you don't like.
ReplyDeleteI know right, then there are those I have meant to read, and actually liked but never bought more of, will focus on those instead
DeleteI still need to try some of her adult books. I know her YA is definitely not for me.
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
Oh those are baaad
Deleteyeah the story of the series didn't take the path I wanted. it's nice but I was quite disappointed
ReplyDeleteYeah, it was like that
DeleteDisappointing for sure.
ReplyDelete:/
DeleteOh yeah - I can't read relationships like that.
ReplyDeleteI guess better to know early int he series before you've invested too much time.

At least I had not bought more so...
DeleteOh, so sad. I love this series on audio and devoured them.
ReplyDeleteI know :/
DeleteThat's too bad this one disappointed.
ReplyDeleteOh no. And this is the...second (had to look again). Bummer that it dropped so fast in the series.
ReplyDeleteYeah, such a shame
