I've read A Fistful of Charms, now I'm rereading A Game of Thrones, which is for a buddy read. I'm Also reading Alpine for you, an old time like comedy and cozy mystery.

Here's my review for A Fistful of Charms:-

For some reason Ivy, one of the vampires in the book, says, I mean exclaims "Shut up!" very often. I wondered from what old horror movie or literature has the author taken this tic and made it her own.

But as you see, I've given the book 3 stars, which is not to be sneered at. I think that the book lacked fiber. It lacked fresh ideas. Yes, the heroine, Rachel, does not travel to the ever after , nor does she invoke a demon. Like Hercule Poirot would say, she has other cats to whip.

The adventures seem episodic. The encounters seem rehashed. I'm thankful that Rachel didn't sleep with every hot man she meets. But there is enough here to keep me puttering to the next book. I didn't empathize much with the vampires. I think no one in history has. Oh wait.
