Evie has spent most of her life working with IPCA - the International Paranormal Control Agency - bagging and tagging such creatures as vampires, hags, and others. Her ability to detect paranormals has served her well in see what others don't. But, when a mysterious and hot paranormal shows up, a king she's never heard of before, Evie begins to question the agency and what she knows about herself.
Things I Liked:
Um, Evie of course. She's so awesome - so kick-butt and sarcastic and just plain fun. I wanted more from her. Much more. The story was pretty fun, but honestly it was the characters that had me coming back for more. Lend was interesting and Reth was full of surprises and I liked Lish a lot too. The paranormal angle was so refreshingly fun and not-nauseating and so spoofy fun that I think I fell in love with paranormal romance all over again. Thank you Kiersten White! Fun quote:
I sighed. I hate the vamp jobs. They think they're so suave. It's not enough for them to slaughter and eat you like a zombie would. No, they want it to be all sexy, too. And, trust me: vampires? Not. Sexy. I mean, sure, their glamours can be pretty hot, but the dry-as-bone corpse bodies shimmering underneath? Nothing attractive there. Not that anyone else can see them, though. p 2Things I Didn't Like:
I think I got a bit hung up on what was actually happening in the story. I'm not sure if I was just confused or if I was just as in the dark as Evie about IPCA and other paranormals. Either way, I'll be devouring Supernaturally as fast as possible.
Read-alikes:
I don't know, maybe a bit like The Darkest Powers series by Kelley Armstrong
