I usually hate smart-ass obnoxious heroines.
They are fun at first but in the long run they tend to be bothersome. So one
would think that by book number 4
in the series I would be hating Sabrina Kane, the
infamous vampire/mage protagonist. She is funny, she can kick ass, she is
pretty selfish even though she goes through the process of realizing there are
others to think of, too. If you think of it, many series with female
protagonists have a Sabrina.
But here, somehow, it works. Sabrina has all
the qualities I hate in the other self-centered bitches and still can get away
with it. Not sure if I am going through some process of less hating/ more
accepting or whether the author finally found the balance between annoying and
enjoyable. It’s a light read and I can’t wait for the next book.
Oh, but one thing is evil here, I’ve just
realized – the cliffhanger. Books in the series should never ever end so
because it takes our free will away. Don’t judge before you know the whole
story, right? So instead of judging just one book and having a noncommittal
relationship with the rest of the series you must buy the next installment for
sure to know how it’s gonna end. Aaargh.
GENRE: packed with action
FANGS OUT: you may actually like the heroine
FANGS RETRACTING: cliffhanger
TOTAL SCORE:
