So far, so good. I like that it's set in Tokyo, and I like the main characters so far. Although, it does move quite slowly.

It was ok/I liked it but the plot itself took some time to get to the point but then again the story was about her and Nick and have back detail about them and who they were working up to the present to and the bad guy was the focus so mayabe his part was small. I do plan to read the next book in the series.

thanks for letting me know :)




Aaww! George. : (
I had forgotten about that. Someday, I need a reread of this series.

she's annoying as hell when it comes to her morels bout not peeking into her own future which i do think is a good idea but i was kinda hoping she and cal would get together.. i think she'd be good for him especially now that he seems to be going a lil insane :P but he's been a totally douche to her. :(
what do you think of Delilah??


Aaww! Ge..."
Delilah is her own special kind of character, isn't she? I get where she's coming from, I like her strength and determination, but I'm not a big fan of her with Cal.




And the second book in the series Voodoo Dues is a free Kindle download today.
There aren't many authors that can manage snicker to laugh-out-loud humor with dark fantasy but when they do it's definitely fun time!


I wasn't all that interested in the book at first when I began reading it, but then I found that I really enjoyed it and read the second one right after the first. I'm now going to get the third one because it's so much better than I expected.



This is one of my favorites! Enjoy!


Me too. I'm hoping Fair Game really brings it, since River Marked wasn't my favorite Mercy book.


It did for me, I was not a big fan of River Marked.

Whew! I'm glad River Marked isn't turning out to be a trend. : )









I love Cal and Niko! At this rate, you're going to be me to Doubletake.


Now, I'm going to start


I liked River Marked, but to me it just didn't seem quite as good as the previous Mercy books. Meanwhile, I enjoyed Fair Game more that I did the previous Alpha & Omega books. I just wish we didn't have to wait until next year for the next Mercy book!


Currently, I'm reading






Chipping away at the TBR list!

Always love it when people discover October Daye!

I'm about 80 pages in, and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. The writing is compelling to me, but the story is...different so far.

I've finished and have changed my mind about this book. The way I feel now I will not continue with this series

I'm just curious, what has changed your mind?

I don't know how to put up the spoiler hiders! I started liking it less at the point when the narrator changes. I hope that does not give away too much!
The fighting scenes were too detailed in the later part of the book but other important details were only implied like what happens with Georgie or Promise. Also, I like it in a fantasy novel when there is also beauty in the magic, it can be a dangerous, deadly magic but there should be moments of wonder too,or if not that, humour, but there was nothing like that in this book. Not for me in any case. I did like the relationship between the brothers and the premise was original


I enjoyed that one a lot more then I anticipated also


Now, I'm going to start

I thought it was excellent and yes I agree that it was better than the last book of Mercy Thompson but then how can we compare I feel bad about saying that. I can't wait for the next book to come out. I have to wonder how many book are going to be in both Series. The end what the Fae did, I wonder how that is going to affect the Series...
Okay so I finished these





I almost DNF'd this book but I was so glad I stuck with it. I ended up loving it. I hope you like it.

Have you read the Parasol Protectorate? My favorite steam punk so far.

I love that series! I still need to finish it actually, I think I've only read the first 2or 3 so far.

I think I get what you're saying. This series is definitely on the dark and grim side. And in many of the books it's hard to find redeeming qualities in Cal, other than his love of his brother. I've become a big fan of this series, but it's definitely not to everyone's taste.
