Bloodfever
Bloodfeverby Karen Marie MoningThis book just kicked the pants off the first one (Darkfever). I started it thinking that I would struggle through it but instead I could not put it down. There was so much revealed and at the same time more mystery. Action! Humour! Torture! It was great!The writing was better in this second novel than it was in the first. I was never bored with what I was reading, there were no slow parts. Still there is no sex (yay!) just sexually charged moments, but nothing that was IN YOUR FACE.I have to say I extremely like Mac, although I find she does some stupid things and like many heroines (or heroes) in books disobeys orders and ends up getting in some sort of trouble.Mac currently has my dream job - running a bookstore (swoon) and in Dublin of all places (double swoon). Aside from the nightly terrors and murder and torture and injuries and you know, danger of death, it seems like a pretty cool life. If only I could run a bookstore full of old books and new books and magical books and live in Ireland. Ahhhh.Sorry, where was I?You learn more about Barrons in this book, enough to know that you don't know anything about him and you really, really, really want to know what he is. V'lane and Mac have started to reach some sort of middle ground - she gets him to tone down the sexing and you find out he's oddly curious about her to the point that he tries his best, though often fails. Mac also discovers something else in this book, something that disturbs her greatly and yet helped save her life. The consequences of which are currently happening in the third book, Faefever (Which I am reading now!).Gone was the poor foreshadowing that made me wrinkle my nose in irritation with the first book. This one flowed much better and was gripping. I was so happy I came across that display of newly released Faefevers! I don't know what I am going to do at the end of that one though, since Dreamfever is due only in August and in hard cover! It's so very relaxing to enjoy a series and have many of them at the tip of your finger.The Fever series
