Ghost Hunter

Ok, are you ready for this one? I'm reading Ghost Hunter, by Jayne Castle, and the male lead is a librarian! Awesome!

Okay, so Jayne Castle is the pen name for Jayne Ann Krentz. Anything by Jayne Castle takes place in the future in another realm. It's kind of weird, but fun.

Anyway, every city has The Guild, a mafia-type organization that keeps ghosts from hurting people in the catacombs under the city. Yeah, I know, far fetched. But still...fun.

In this one, Cooper is the new Guild Boss of Aurora Springs. When Elly breaks off their engagement, he waits 6 months before following her to Cadence where he can try to woo her again.

But things start to go awry when Elly's neighbor gets hurt in the catacombs, and suddenly they're trying to uncover a drug dealer who's trying to set up Cooper.

Confused yet? Let's throw in her pet dust bunny just for fun. Little predators, big fun.

I liked it. Plus...male librarian. How often does that happen?

Shadow Kiss

Okay, we all know I love teen vampire novels, right? Because I just finished Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead, the 3rd in the Vampire Academy series, and it made me want to throw the book at the wall. In a good way, of course.

Let's see...Mason's dead, and Rose is having a hard time dealing with that. Well, so's Eddie, but that's okay. Adrian has followed Rose and Lissa back to St. Vladimir's, so he's around, drinking and smoking.

Oh, and this is when they have their field practice. Rose and Lissa are not together, but still see each other.

And! The big fight at the end? Amazing. However, I hate Rose seeing ghosts. That's what kept this from being a 4 snowflake book for me.

And Dimitri! Oh, Dimitri...
