+ 1 read + 1 read (2014)
Re-read April 2016 - I feel like this is probably a 3.75 stars or so? Originally read Aug 2011 (no review) - 4 stars Brief notes/review from re-read: Book #3 in the series was where I got up to first time around back in 2011, so I was hoping by re-reading these I could continue on and read more in the series, as I was told some of the later ones were better...plus I remembered these as being really good the first time around. Unfortunately, for the moment, I've only managed to get to Book #3 again. I think I'm probably not enjoying them QUITE as much as the first time around, although they are still entertaining and I will most likely continue on with them at some point. Whereas Book #1 was werewolf focused and Book #2 was vampire focused, Book #3 seems to revolve around a mystery in the fae world. It's quite good to see all these different aspects, as it builds the idea of the world and the different groups of people quite well. I think this one has some of the the same problems as the last two books though... there's a very slow beginning and lots of things described but when you look back not really a lot actually happens in a large early part of the book. Then it starts to pick up and there's lots going on crammed into the last 20% or so. Although I don't want to spoil anything I think people should know that there's some pretty traumatic stuff that happens in this one towards the end - triggers and all that. Major spoiler: (view spoiler) The romance subplot is moved on by a snails pace and then sadly, the satisfaction that should have been felt at the events at the very end are completely overshadowed by the fact that I was still feeling sick from what had happened previously. I know people deal with things in different ways and Mercy seems to like to ignore things for the most part, but (view spoiler) I as a reader just wasn't ready to appreciate this moment. Also - fade to black? Really? After all that waiting that's what we get? Urgh fine! Oh and we don't hear from Stefan or the vampires at all in this one...and I kind of missed them!
