Why do I bother with this series? If I hadn't received this book for free, there is no way I would have bothered with it. The writing is fine, but the stories are just so BLEH! I think the author is trying to develop the characters and their relationships, but if that's the case, why spend so much time describing the heroine's outfits? I don't care what she's wearing! And the sister heroines make me want to throw up - they are so smug and stupid. For example, if you were going to hold a man More...

Because I am a glutton for punishment I am going to read book #2 of this series. Witchling was the first in the series and it drove me a little crazy. This one can't possibly be worse, can it?

The heroine of this book is Delilah the shifter who turns into a cute little pussycat and does some Private Investigation work. She's beautiful, thin and 6' tall and because she is half fey is preternaturally beautiful but I can live with that because at least she's not sporting double D's and More...

Wow. Just wow. As a sequel, Changeling doesn't disappoint. At all. Witchling, the first book in the Otherworld series is a very entertaining read. This second book, however, will blow you away. It's fast-paced, hot, funny ... and oh did I mention the Were-spiders? *shudders and grins* That's right, creepy little spiders, and honkin' huge spiders.

Yasmine enjoyed writing this book and it shows on the way the words just flow off the page. Even though there is so much for the D'Artigo s More...

I find this book (and probably the whole series) a little hard to review. On one hand, I like the characters, and the world is very intriguing. The blending of different mythologies is just plain cool. On the other hand, the writing seems to be a bit awkward in a lot of places. Maybe it's a structural issue? I have trouble putting my finger on it. Just as an example, descriptions are thorough but don't always flow well or help move the story forward with their placement. I like this serie More...

I liked this book, and I like the series. However I have a bit of a problem with scenes that just seem to be thrown in for the heck of it. Specifically, sex scenes that have no place in moving the story along - and don't even make sense! There was no good reason to have the character sleep with a second person "just because". That one act left me with a WTF? feeling that changed my perception of the whole book.

I hope the author doesn't make a habit of this because I'd re More...

Second in the Otherworld paranormal romance series revolving around three sisters, agents of the Otherworld Intelligence Agency (OIA). The series is based in the Seattle area.

<h2>My Take</h2>
I've decided that Galenorn is a drama queen of a writer with no depth and little tension, but a sense of humor. That said, I'm upping this story to a "4" strictly for her originality...definitely not for the writing.

Galenorn tosses in little tidbits to make the More...

Changeling / 978-0-425-21629-3

The second in the Sisters of the Moon series, "Changeling" switches the narrative point of view from the older sister Camille (seen in "Witchling") to the middle sister Delilah. This point of view change characterizes the series - each book is written from a different sister's point of view and every three books, the cycle begins again - and underscores the essential role that character development fills in this charming series.

This brilliant novel is the second in the Sisters of the Moon Series. I absolutely loved the first one, which was in the POV of Camille. This is in the POV of Delilah D'Artigo, who happens to be a half human, half-Faerie, werecat PI and member of the OIA .

The story continues, and we catch up with many of the characters introduced in the first novel, plus a whole bunch of new ones. It sucked me in as soon as I started reading it, and once I got stuck into it, I couldn't put it down. I More...

What to say, what to say. Let’s see. Well, first of all, this book was told from the viewpoint of Delilah, the middle D’Artigo sister. Delilah is a werecat. On nights of the full moon, or when she is especially stressed out, she changes into a precious little golden haired tabby. That’s not to say she’s a pussy. (Sorry, couldn’t resist, hehe.) Delilah has plenty of fire, which is good, because she’s going to need it.

Not even as good as the first, which is really saying something. The first sister, Camille, was a fun character, and despite the bad writing and cliche characteristics given to her by Galenorn, she was somewhat interesting. Her numerous boyfriends gave you something to think about, anyway.

Delilah is nothing like that. Galenorn repeatedly tells us that she's gentle, naive and ultra-sensitive, but then she turns around and has Delilah tell us that she's not quite as soft as she let on. More...

A few things bothered me about this book. First I understand that the main character is a Were and that she changes into a house cat. BUT I felt it was borderline Bestiality when she mentioned "f*cking" Tomcats when in here cat form. Another issue I have is that her boyfriend is in her thrall, whom she stole from her sister, well kind of. Her sister seems to be an Anita Blake wanna be with multiple boyfriends, who seem to not mind. WTH? Beyond those little things I still don't underst More...

Whoa...go Delilah, rock with your cat self! Ok so this one didn't have as much sexual drama as Camille but it was really good. (I knew Camille would end up sexually with Smokey! Gonna be interesting...I wouldn't turn him down.) But I thought the relationship that Delilah has with Chase was way better than what she could have with Zach, but am curious who her animal connection will really be with. And holy smokes the thing with the Autumn Lord is intense! Of course we have all the sisters Camille More...

Delilah D'Artigo is a half human, half-faerie shapeshifter but because she's half human she doesn't shift into the traditional "were" form of a wolf or a larger cat like a panther but instead into your typical housecat. Her human job is being a private detective so when the leader of the nearby werepuma pack hires her to find out who is killing off the pack's members she takes the case. Whoever is killing off the werepumas is not only killing them but removing their hearts and leavin More...

I'm giving this series another try. Hopefully this one will be better than the other one.

Ok after a few weeks of not really being interested in the story, I quit. The story is ok, but I've found that if I have to set the book down for any reason, I have no desire to pick it up again, and it's just not interesting enough to read in one go.

In Changeling, Yasmine Galenorn avoids the thing that annoyed me most in Witchling; namely, the infodumping. Having set the scene in Witchling, Galenorn is free to spend most of Changeling on plot and character development. There is some exposition, but it didn't strike me as excessive. It was just the right amount to get me caught up after two years' absence from Galenorn's universe.

Changeling is written from the point of view of Delilah D'Artigo, a sister of Witchling's heroine. Wh More...

It's interesting to read a story where practically -all- fictional, magical creatures can co-exist: Fae, Witches, Were's, Vampires, Elves, Dragons (you get the idea)...even if not always happily. The characters are a little shallow, but that's explained away by their nature. It's obviously set up to be part of a series (as it's the second book with an open tie in for the third), but it's written well enough to stand alone. I hope that as the series progresses, so too will the depth of the cha More...

Continuing the story from the first book, the D'Artigo sisters are still in trouble. This time, the POV is from the middle sister, Delilah. She's a shape shifter & the problem involves other shifters.

It's pretty well done & entertaining. Sexual tension & some fairly explicit sex, but not so much as to be too distracting from the story. It's actually used fairly well to give some extra punch to the story in places, which surprised me, since I don't usually care for it.

This one was much better than the first one. I was still not THRILLED by it, but it's encouraging considering that I've bought the whole series...that they are at least getting better.
I'm not sure if it's because the author doesn't have to go into so many explanations as in the first, but this plot was most definitely better.

I was originally going to give this book a 2, but the ending warranted pushing that to a 3. This series is one of those "I don't have anything else better to read, but want to just read something" books. I can see that the author seems to be still somewhat of a novice storyteller, and agree with most everyone else in saying that there is WAY too much description of what the characters are wearing, and she almost seems like a "naughty kid doing something she knows is taboo" More...

The fae creatures have revealed themselves to human society, so they don’t have to keep that part of their existence secret; but, the fact is that they were assigned to what they call Earthside because the OIA has little to no confidence in their abilities as agents.

Excellent second book in the Sisters of the Moon series by Yasmine Galeorn. Just loved it. Galenorn launched directly into the story of Delilah D'Artigo, second born of the three half-human, half-fae D'Artigo sisters. The mistakes of the first book in the series, Witchling, were not repeated in this book. You did not have to wade several chapters of background before the story started to develop. This story took off from the first page and didn't let you go until the conclusion. Although More...

I really liked this book much better than the first. It was in the perspective of Deliah, the sister that changes into a tabby cat. This book starts out with Deliah in her were form out in the woods when she senses another "cat" in the woods with her. She tries to get a higher point of view and gets her tail stuck in some burrows. She has her ego lowered when she gets help from a mouse, to let her out.

A series that follows 3 sisters from the Otherworld (the land of the Fae) on assignment on Earth. Each book in the trilogy (the series seems to be a series of series made of trilogy) is written from the perspective of a different sister; where the last was told of events previous to this book from a witch's perspective, this book is told from a were's perspective, and the events after this book's will be from a vampire's perspective.

I really love this series of books. This is the second book and is about Delilah, the shape shifter. In this book the sisters are battling more evil and each is coming stronger into their own powers. This book is focused on Delilah yet still manages to include a good bit about the other two sisters and their friends & lovers. Toward the end it does give some suggestions that the next book will have to do with the third sister Menolly. The beginning was definitely amusing and a very good start to More...

In short - great book. Yasmine Galenorn hooked me with Witchling and continues to hold me in her firm little grasp with CHANGELING. What makes this story so good? It's difficult to put my finger on. It could be Ms. Galenorn's ability to pull the reader into the story with her vivid imagery. It could be her great characters and the developed personalities each has. It could even be the action and drama that she fills the pages of each book with. Let's see - which is it?
