Eat Prey Love by Kerrelyn Sparks

No.  I am so disappointed by this book.  Carlos has always been one of my favorite side characters and I have been looking forward to his book ever since we first met him and I hated it.  I HATED Caitlyn.  She could not have been any more desperate.  I have no idea why any woman would ever throw themselves at someone the way she did.  It was embarrassing and she just kept doing it.

 And her freakin daddy issues.  Yeah so your dad was/is an asshole. BFD.  And you find out your sister didn't actually run away like you thought.  Instead of freaking out maybe just enjoy getting to know her?  I dunno.  That's what I would do.  Its not like you can change the past.  And it's not like you are actually going to do anything to your father so STFU.

The dialogue seemed forced.  And a lot of it was awkward and incredibly cheesy.  I understand that a lot of the lines were suppose to be "sexy" but good god they weren't.
There's really nothing more to say.  I did not enjoy anything about the book.  I wanted so badly to stop listening to it.  I am really hoping the the next one won't be so awkward.

Also whoever hired the narrator for the audiobook did a terrible job.  She talked like you would to a child. It's part of the reason I hated the book so much.  Who wants to listen to love scenes with a whiney voice? NO ONE.

Forbidden Nights with a Vampire by Kerrelyn Sparks


Oh Phil.  I feel so freaking bad for you.. Vanda is Terrible.  With a capital T.  Phil has always been one of my favorite side characters and honestly I have never liked Vanda but I though eh maybe she won't be that bad once I know her back story... But it really didn't help.  I hate her more.  I know she was suppose to have anger problems but all of that just came across as childish temper tantrums.  The whole book I kept thinking oh my god Phil is perfection what the hell does he see in her.  Ugh.

Last week I read Shadows's edge and hated Jenna the main character and I though there was no way I could ever dislike a female lead as much as I hated her but Vanda is seriously close.  I am being super harsh.  She just drove me insane.

I wasn't even going to finish it but you learn some good information about the vamp war so I glad that I did.  But I will forever but sad for my lovely, sweet Phil being stuck with that crazy Vanda.

Secret Life of a Vampire by Kerrelyn Sparks


I liked it.  For sure I didn't love it.  I could not stand Laura.  Like at all.  She was terrible.  Jack was amazing and way, way too good for Laura.  But like with the last books it was funny.  I laughed a few times.  It's really the only reason I keep reading the series because I really don't like the females.  I don't think I have really liked any of them.  Maybe Emma but the rest so far have not been that great.

I loved that Jack didn't give up.  Even after Laura was a complete brat.  The whole Apollo thing was just sick. but again I just didn't like Laura.  I don't like how she handled finding out that Jack was a vampire.  She already knew that he had red eyes and that he could teleport.  She was okay thinking he was an alien but not a vampire?  That just didn't sit right with me.

All I Want for Christmas is a Vampire by Kerrelyn Sparks


I did not like Toni.. I tried. Really I did.  But I just couldn't.  She got better by the end but I struggled with her for the whole book. If it wasn't for Ian I'm pretty sure I would have hated this book.  Well that and there were some pretty funny parts of the book.  I did laugh a few times. I wanted to punch Toni's room mate in the face.  Not only because she was a complete brat after they saved her but because of the way she treated Carlos!  ugh I wanted to to cuddle that guy up.  I hope he has a book at some point because I am in love with him.

Ian was adorable and clumsy and he did embarrassing things that made me love him even more.  Toni eventually gets better.  After she falls in love with Ian.  I almost didn't finish the book because of her though. I really freaking hope there isn't a book for Sabrina. I seriously hated her.  I have no desire to read any more about her.

The Undead Next Door by Kerrelyn Sparks


I put this series down a while ago because I didn't really connect with any of the characters and a lot of the dialogue seemed so childish.  I liked Heather.  Did I connect with her? No.  But that could be because she has a child and her mind works differently than mine would. who knows.  I got a little bored with the story because she kept rejecting him.

Jean-Luc was one of my favorite males from the series so far.  I loved how he was with Heather's daughter Bethany.  The short scene where he played with the crocodile and her barbie with her was adorable and I fell in love with him right there.  If I were Heather I would have grabbed him and taken him to the nearest closet, or couch, or bath tub or whatever.  That would have sealed the deal for me.  I don't really understand why she kept rejecting him after that.

I am excited for Ivan. I am so glad he found a way to age and I am excited to read the next book where he finds his love :)
