I needed a little light reading in between all the stuff I've been reading and reviewing lately so I decided to read the first two books in MaryJanice Davidson's Undead series, Undead and Unwed and Undead and Unemployed. The series is a blend of chick lit (which I rarely read because I have little patience for most of it) and paranormal romance (which I've never read before).
I don't have terribly strong feelings about the books. They were light, quick reads. It was a little hard for me to relate to Betsy because her character is a little over-the-top. For me, she fluctuated from being sympathetic to completely unsympathetic. I won't include my main complaint about Betsey here, because I can't explain it without including a spoiler for book 1. I definitely think that the supporting characters are the best part of the books.
I wouldn't be against reading the other books in the series (as fluffy, down-time reads), but I'm not going to run out and buy them.
Yeah, I gotta agree about that series. Betsey annoyed me senseless in places, too.
ReplyDeleteI have Undead and ... what's the second again? That one's on my shelf somewhere... I've SO got to get caught up (but I got three RABCKs this week!).
Howdy!
