In broad terms, there are three types of "reminds me of".

The weakest level is when you don't think about another story while reading, but you see comparisons when trying to review the book. Of my recent reads, comparing Ann Aguirre's "Grimspace" series with Sara Creasy's "Scarabaeus" series would fall into that level.

The middle level is when you see elements of one story in the other story. If the writing is good, this level of "reminds me of" tends to fade as you read the books. Linda Robertso ...more

A lot happens with Mona Lisa in this book. Her love life takes a truly dramatic turn--shocking. Seriously shocking. Entrée growing love interest, Demon Prince, Halcyon. Against all odds, being the "demon" Prince, he is a serious contender as a romantic interest.

I am not quite sure why, but these books are compellingly hard for me to put down once I start them. I enjoy the characters, though not always the character interaction. There is a ton of violence and the main character being thrown this way and that against her will, but overall I still enjoy the characters too much to really be bothered by it.

I would seriously not recommend these books for a hard core feminist, however, the sex scenes are decent, and the magic is fun.

Shelves: paranormal, romance

Sadly enough, book two didn't make this series any more unique with Sunny's own voice. This still has the same imitation of the authors I mentioned in my review of the first book. Still, when one has few choices to read and pre-Goodreads, Netgalley and Edelweiss ... you read what you can get your hands on. ...more

This is the second version of the Monere series and I found this one to be quite a bit more violent than the first. I enjoyed it but parts were a bit tough to read as I am a bit squeamish...lol.
