Odd Portent Starting to get a little of her history so upped to a 5 star。 Still an unusual lack of history or back story for a series and it makes it hard to really become attached to any of the charecters。 But the story line holds my attention enough I can overlook it。。。。 with a few grumbles。

0 stars for the simple fact that the author uses racial slurs。

Beyond the dead man lumberjack sitting on the slab, Sophie finds herself embroiled in trouble with the largest werewolf pack in San Francisco。 A few shifter related deaths have crossed her path as well as the Alpha (who is a major dbag) getting into her business and making things difficult for her。。。mostly due to the fact that he can't stand that she's human。Are all these cases connected? Can Sophie and her friends solve these crimes before the killer or the werewolves make an even bigger mess of her life? 。。。more
Dew,
Second verse, as good as the firstThe AU is fantastic。 It’s original without being obtuse and the commingling with the realistic descriptions of SF lend the book a rich landscape for the characters to inhabit。 The big reveal of Snow White’s identity left me wanting to read further into the series and I sincerely hope that it’s not going to be another 18 months before the next installment。 However, if that’s what it takes for the author to create these fun and funky mystery novels, the wait is wo Second verse, as good as the firstThe AU is fantastic。 It’s original without being obtuse and the commingling with the realistic descriptions of SF lend the book a rich landscape for the characters to inhabit。 The big reveal of Snow White’s identity left me wanting to read further into the series and I sincerely hope that it’s not going to be another 18 months before the next installment。 However, if that’s what it takes for the author to create these fun and funky mystery novels, the wait is worthwhile。 。。。more

No longer sad about the wait for Book 2I read and re-read the first book Sophie and the Odd Ones, originally not knowing when the sequel was coming and then anxiously awaiting it。 I love the characters, the setting makes me miss The City by the Bay so much, and the Mythicals are just as machiavellian as you would hope。 Can't wait to see where this goes。 No longer sad about the wait for Book 2I read and re-read the first book Sophie and the Odd Ones, originally not knowing when the sequel was coming and then anxiously awaiting it。 I love the characters, the setting makes me miss The City by the Bay so much, and the Mythicals are just as machiavellian as you would hope。 Can't wait to see where this goes。 。。。more
