This wasn’t bad.
The world building was good, and the storyline was something that I haven’t read a lot of.
However I had a hard time connecting to the characters, and because of that, it diminished my investment in the story.
This could be a case of me not the book, but I don’t know.
2.75 stars? Eh.
This had potential. The writing is decent, but the characters really leave something to be desired. I couldn't really connect with and therefore give a shit about anyone. The romance was weak. The plot was only okay. Honestly, I finished it last night and I'm already forgetting what happened. WTF was the MC's name? Uhh.. something Greenblatt.. damnit. Anyways, Greenblatt was an okay character. She didn't really do anything overtly stupid or have any particularly irritating behaviours. I would have liked for a bit more depth, depth of character and depth of story, depth of setting, etc. But, again, the writing is decent, and from what I can tell, at least under this name, this is the author's first novel. I would be interested in seeing how things evolve going forward, because there is potential. Unfortunately, I can't really recommend this book unless you're getting it for free and don't have anything else you'd rather read.
From just the cover alone I knew this would be my type of book. Female lead, with demon summoning powers, add in the Fae and Ash who may just have a different set of wings. The world building was perfect and I was fully invested in these characters. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series
The world building in this book is very good. I love how the lead character is a strong female with a very altruistic heart. Her life is constantly in danger yet she strives to help her friends. The characters are multifaceted and engaging. I'm eager to read more about this character.
A unique storyline. Great heroine, nice mystery, villainous demons, fast paced action. Side characters were fantastic, I liked everything about this book. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book from Netgalley.
I loved the female heroine great dialogue and unique world building with a little romance, action thrown in. I can't wait to read more.
Summary: Years ago, a mark appeared on my inner wrist--The Kiss, they call it--and it makes me a summoner. I can summon, well, things…entities of power, including demons. Which, I did, until recently. I quit, because I summoned a demon on behalf of a client and things went south. I fixed it, but now I owe that demon a favor and I don't know when he's going to call it in, or, what he's going to ask.
Now I work in a fae bar, trying to stay out of trouble, waiting for the hammer to drop. But trouble tends to follow me. And my upstairs neighbor, Ash, seems to be right in the thick of it. He's gorgeous, with sexy curls, kissable lips, and a body to match. I can't believe someone like him even glanced my way.
Fun, romantic, action and sass. Love the main character. She is smart, snarky and brave. I like the magical world in this book. It's original and fun.
Thanks to the publisher for providing an arc.
