Charlotte (184 KP) rated Bolder Guilt-Edged (Zack Bolder #3) in Books
Jun 11, 2021
Warning: contains suicide and references to baby deaths/abortion.
Although this is third in, what looks to be, an interesting series it can easily be read as a standalone. There's a little back story on Zack Bolder, our main character, which is woven throughout this story.
I like that we're taken to Australia, it makes a change from the usual backdrops.
I found Zack Bolder likeable with a well written character.....a good depth to him without feeling as though you might drown. And Wellbeck, the strong, sarcastic detective, is quite an interesting character.
The working/personal relationship Bolder has with Wellbeck is just as good, they interact well together, bounce ideas off of each other and have each others back.
With adult themes throughout (not to mention creepy demons etc) I would recommend this for a more mature audience.
Charlotte (184 KP) rated Evolved (Beyond Human #2) in Books
Jun 26, 2021
I thought the first book had some sad moments.......Sheesh. Evolved has picked up a while later and is just as good as the first.
The heartbreaking events keep happening, the danger is ever present and tolerance of the evolved is low.
Hadi is relying on drugs more heavily than before for more reasons than one. You can't help but feel for him.
James is in a different country and has his own demons following him..... including his feelings for Hadi and the events they came through together.
It's nice to see a closeness between different personalities how they each click in place. A mismatch type of family, just like the rest of us.
As with Hellfire, the first in the series, this is for adults. The themes of death and drug use are still there (drugs being the main one). Again my heart was smashed and the cracks are far bigger.

Sep 11, 2020 (Updated Sep 11, 2020)
A good idea on paper perhaps but this is a big step down from the first. Largely due to the setting but really missing Samara Weaving who barely features this time round. Which is a real shame. You definitely need to see the first to get a lot of the in jokes from events of the first. Definitely one sequel that doesn't come close to the original.
Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Jordyn (A Daemon Hunter, #1) in Books
Jan 12, 2021
I liked the beginning, how she went after the demons and just being within metres of her makes them combust. And Emrys' introduction was kinda fun.
I think it was just everything else. We didn't seem to get much information on anything else though, or I was having that much trouble with the style and plot that it just didn't register, and I just lost interest.
I found Jordyn quite annoying/immature and Emrys wasn't really in it that much for me to get an opinion on him...
Admittedly it was a freebie and had been on my kindle for a long time...and I only really tried to read it now as part of an a-z challenge in one of my groups.
It just wasn't really up my alley at all.
