If you read and love paranormal stories, you will love this series.The 1st book is the building blocks for the series, I noted some of the comments on book 1. personally I had no trouble with the scenes ,I had no problem following scene to scene as for the names being spelt wrong. I didn't notice because I was too engrossed in the plot.By the second book I had grown a keen interest in vintage clothing, black and white films and encouraged to make up my own cocktails. needless to say this book takes off with the mysteries left behind from the 1st one.Resurrection of ( jury's still out )the love of her life C.V, Mr Quick with his magic slobber, nemesis Lillith who can only be glimpsed in the mirror and last but not least the anti hero who can raise dragons but doesn't know whether kiss her or kill her.Looking forward to 4th book. The weakest book so far in this series. I wasn't sure what the main plot point/conflict was supposed to be, with so many moderately important storylines combining, diverging, resolving or disappearing. Still, Delilah remains a strong yet vulnerable heroine, and her "dog," Quicksilver is a favorite of mine. The Ric Romance was downplayed through most of this book, which took place in a fairly short timeframe. Hopefully the next book will strengthen the series.
