Patricia Briggs

Ace, 2008

Love it too!

+ Read On The Prowl first
+ Briggs struck gold again

I just recently read where people were saying to read On the Prowl first, so needless to say I read Cry Wolf before I ever heard that! I don't agree with those that say there isn't enough back story! If you read the Mercy Books, you know this falls right between the first two and it the world is ...

Mira, 2007

Nice twist on the paranormal

+ Pretty good

I am a fan of vampire and werewolf fiction. However, I really liked the originality of this story and purchased book 2 in the series. I am saving it for jury duty :) The story really makes you picture the people and their surroundings, so that you feel you are watching a movie when you read this ...

Berkley Books, 2003

To love this book is to love being enveloped in a story

+ very dark
+ A Book with a Bite

This book is Robin McKinley's emotional masterpiece. What other reviewers seem to fail to acknowledge is that in reading this book, if you have ever been able to identify the times in your life you pulled the covers over you head after the alarm went off and those feelings associated with being ...

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2006

I Loved It, Here's Why You May Not...

+ Chill out and dream a little! Good book for people who LOVE details!

This book is not a lot of things: linguistically complex, rich in description, full of well-developed characters. Lovers of vampire lore will find that it is not particularly dark or detailed - Meyer seems more interested in the way being a vampire might affect your relationships than any other ...
