A Brush of Darkness (Abby Sinclair, #1)

TORN BETWEEN 3 and 4 STARS! ugh. I dunno. Can I just say the book probably deserves 4 but I just didn't LIKE the main character? She made SUCH BAD DECISIONS sometimes. That said, a sexy Incubus love interest (and setup for love triangle in book 2) is a GOOD thing, I loved the dirty-ass unicorn, I mean...yeah, that part was amazeballs. I felt like the beginning was kind of shaky, but it evened out. There was something just a WEE bit Gumbo-y about the world-building, like "throw all the UF shit in a pot and then a world it will make". I just felt like I wanted a bit more cohesion in the rules of the world. BUT, it def started to congeal towards the end, I did really enjoy the character relationships, and I wanna see what happens in the next book. (Abby, I will virtually slap you though, hehe). Soo...maybe I'll change it to 4. Urban Fantasy fans will like this series for sure. Yeah 4. I'll read the next one soon.

Wanted to like it but didn't like it. Didn't think the relationship between the main character and the incubus worked - didn't feel the love at all from her side. And some major issues in the world building. Even the unicorn felt a bit gimmicky by the end.

You have a chip that just lets you download these books directly into your brain, don't you? I know redheads have, historically, been able to make me feel pretty small, but never so effectively at so great a distance by the sheer volume of what they consume and create.
