I'm about 67% done with Reserved for the Cat by Mercedes Lackey. It is one of her "Elemental Masters" books and certainly one of the best of those.
I hadn't read any Lackey in awhile but some of her books, mostly Elementa Masters, became available as eBooks from the library here recently, so I gave them a try. I couldn't get into Wizard of London and abandoned it. Unnatural Issue was okay and I finished it. This one is better than either.
It is loosely based on Puss in Boots but it is a little Paris Opera ballet dancer who goes to England and pretends to be a famous Russian ballerina and it appears to be set around the beginning of the 20th century, maybe the end of the 19th. It is a nice diversion as the last thing I read was The Strain, which was uber-gruesome.
