Books: My Thoughts on Dark Prince (Dark 1)

Dark Prince by Christine Feehan My rating: 3 of 5 stars While I really enjoyed the latter half of this book, the first part had a lot of content I believe could've been excluded. I have to believe that the extra 100 pages that were removed when this book was first published had to have come from the first half of the book. If that is the case, I probably would've enjoyed reading the original published edition more than this edition.

Books: My Thoughts on No Ghouls Allowed (Ghost Hunter Mysteries 9)

No Ghouls Allowed by Victoria Laurie My rating: 5 of 5 stars More like a 4.5 - rating has remained the same on re-read I really enjoyed this one. Hard topics covered in this story, but I think it's MJ's relationship with her father that really got me the most. I think it's mostly because of my relationship with my own father. The investigation was interesting as they all are, but this installment really helps you get to know MJ's family and I appreciated and could relate to a lot of her struggles with her father.

Déjà Dead by Kathy Reichs My rating: 3 of 5 stars Was surprised to discover that this is very different from the TV show. Almost everything you know about the TV show is different besides the character name and profession. It was an interesting case though. I'm hoping now that I've gotten over that initial shock of how different this was to the show and that I know this Temperance better, that the next installment will move much better for me.
