I don't make a secret of the fact that I'm burned out on urban fantasy/paranormal romance.
This book, quite frankly, was a very pleasant surprise. It has its flaws - I don't completely buy into the protagonist's motivations, for instance, when she keeps flinging herself into trouble, but overall, it's just enjoyable enough that I can deal with that. Some good humour, good characters and a generally atmospheric setting. ...more

I enjoyed "The Opposite of Life" very much. It was a reasonably gentle yet gritty read which was engaging and interesting, with characters I could readily relate too; being set in familiar locations depicted very well appealed to me too. I found it a very satisfying read.
I liked the way the story unfolded, the message in the story and that the ending wasn't predictable. It's a book I recommend to my vampire story loving friends and anyone else who likes a good read. ...more

I really enjoyed this book. The main character was intelligent, likeable and easy to relate too and the storyline had some interesting twists.
I love the fact that this book was set in Melbourne and how the author captured it so well!
