If you've read this author before, you know what to expect. If not, it's a good series to start with, you'll definitely put this name down on the 'to always try' pile. It's a fun, easy, fast-paced series. It's something perfect to read when you're looking for something light and enjoyable. Just like you'd get a pizza if you don't know what to eat and aren't in the mood to think too much about it. [image]
The characters are well-built and the plot is interesting. There's not much of a world-builder, but it's not something you'd expect from this type of series, it's just too short and fast-paced for that.
All in all, it's worth reading (or at least giving it a try). ...more
First off, I gave it 4 stars not 3 because it was better than I expected. So maybe it wasn't all that memorable or edgy, but it was cut3.5 Yay! [image]
First off, I gave it 4 stars not 3 because it was better than I expected. So maybe it wasn't all that memorable or edgy, but it was cute and fun. Even more, it made me smile from time to time. I know, I know, these are not reasons to give a book 4 stars, but I can't help it, I feel the need to reward it for making me curious. [image]
Anyway, it's a pretty normal romance. I can't say I liked it at first, the female MC was pretty annoying, but I grew to love (ok, more like "like") her. Fast, cute, fun read. Give it a try, prove me wrong. [image]

Like it happens with any good junk food, at one point you need to say stop, no more. I like you, but I need more substance in my life. [image]
It's exactly what I said right now. Really fun series, I've enjoyed it, but I need a break again from this genre.
If you've never read alien smut before though, it's a good series to start. And if you like this genre but haven't read this one, then it's worth trying out....more
I admit, I haven't been the luckiest lately when it comes to books, so this makes me enjoy this read even more.

I admit, I haven't been the luckiest lately when it comes to books, so this makes me enjoy this read even more.
It's a good start of the series; the heroine is really kick-ass, the other characters are fun and with varying personalities (this isn't something that's easy to find, they're usually all kind of the same), and the plot has a lot of potential.
What I enjoyed was that the action started right away, there were boring parts. I just hope this won't become a downside (worldbuilder might be missing later on).
Eh, still, it's a nice, fun book at the moment, definitely worth a try....more
Overall, a fun series. Interesting characters, fun plot, good (almost really good) writing style, and decent world builder.
What didn't work Oh well...
Overall, a fun series. Interesting characters, fun plot, good (almost really good) writing style, and decent world builder.
What didn't work for me was all the sex (yeah yeah, don't get out of your chair yet). [image]
The issue, when you have 40% of the book filled with sex scenes, is that it gets damn boring. I mean, in 300 pages, 100 pages only of really detailed descriptions... That's a bit much for me. I ended up skipping a lot of pages in the last 3 books.
Still, the series was fun and worth a read. I really enjoyed the author, style, plot, characters....more

Was it wow? Nope, not even close.
But it was well-written and it made me want to read the next chapter. And the next. And the next.
Overall, the characters were annoying at times and idiots at others, and I can't say that I liked them too much. The plot was fun, yes, but it had some gaps. The world-builder wasn't great, although it was interesting.
So, the question is, why did I like this series, right? Well, I have no idea. Maybe it was the writing style, or the plot, the fast-paced action, maybe it's because I just love circus books (I really do!), or maybe just because I was in a weird funk. I don't know.
What I can say is, I would definitely recommend this series if you're in need of a pizza and you don't have hight standards at that moment. [image]...more
Still, it was a pretty good series (yes, writing the review for the whole series). I had fun, it kept me curious, and I liked the side characters. Definitely worth a read, if you're looking for a light, easy, Saturday relaxation. ...more

I got a bit bored while reading this book; if the first one in the series was finished in 2 days, this one I barely managed to finish in 1 week. Plus, it's pretty predictable. I mean, I know what will happen next, just as I kinda' knew what would happen in this series.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad read, but maybe the series dragged on a bit too much. Maybe a book or 2 less would have been perfect....more

Something unique to this series: the love interest has existed before the books started. This means that the plot doesn't focus too much on the love interest, but on the actual action, which is really cool and new and I like that.
There was no feeling of boredom or of meh throughout the read, and I could barely put the book down.
I'm definitely curious about the next part....more

So, what can I say? I can't really remember too much from it (and that says something as well, I'd say). I was yawning the whole book, the book wasn't engaging at all. The characters felt sloppily written (is that a thing?), and the plot was typical.
So, yup, I'll have to keep on looking for my book with a hunk on the cover. [image]...more

I really liked to see a new idea for the world-builder. I haven't read many series where the complete world was in darkness. It was a very welcomed surprise, well done, new author I like!
For some reason, I didn't have high hopes for this series. So imagine my surprize when I picked up the first book, read it in half a day, and got the rest of the series on the same day.
Yup, definitely catchy.
I liked the overall plot although well, the ending of the series was a bit meh (it's the reason why this series doesn't get more than 3.5 stars). I'll write more about this in the review for the last book though.
Anyway, yup, really good series, worth a read. And I'm gonna go see what else this author has that might be interesting, she's definitely on my list now. ...more

I expected a looot more from this author, from this series, and from this universe. Not sure if Debbie Cassidy got bored or what happened here exactly, but I think this is the first series I read from her where I get no feelings from the books (boredom doesn't count).
There was no chemistry between characters and I did some skimming of the books, which is very unusual for me when it comes to this author.
The world is pretty good, and the MC is decent (although kinda flat), but that's about it.
It even managed to surprise me a few times, which is a rare occurrence, so well done, author!
Why no more than 3.5? Ther3.5 A good series, all in all.

Why no more than 3.5? There were some things that were a little bit annoying and some other stuff didn't make sense in the end, but oh well. Still a series worth reading. This is what I call a junk food series, fun and enjoyable, but it doesn't last long and it's pretty forgettable, in the end....more

I've already read this author before and have been looking for other series. I was really happy to see that this series is just as much fun as the previous one!
A fast-paced plot, really fun characters, and a great writing style. The world-builder is pretty good and the story behind it all is engaging.
