Katy Lohman's Reviews > Cravings

It was enjoyable reading, but I don't think I need to reread it.

Since Laurell K. Hamilton's story was part of a novel, I could just get the novel. (Which I will do.) This story, however, is not really as good for an introduction into the world. Those who don't know the characters might get lost. Those of us who do know, and love, the characters, will have quite the ride ahead, as does Anita, when she tries to control the ardeur, and it proceeds to knock her around until something big happens that no one expected.

MaryJanice Davidson's vampire story was oddly humorous, despite having a bitter, bite-your-head-off heroine; not to0 my taste. It did have a good ending, and I liked the vampire queen.

Eileen Wilks' story had the most intriguing characters, with the male lead a mystery being I would never have guessed a character to be. If I were to keep this book, it would be for this story. I sure hope there are more stories with Molly and Michael in them, and more with Cullen. So many questions about the world, too...

Rebecca York's story is a straightforward paranormal romance with a thriller sub-plot. It could very well be a full novel. As a short story, it felt very rushed. As a novel, it would have more room for the drama to evolve, and for the characters' feelings/relationship to grow at a decent pace. I liked Antonia, but wanted to shake Grant until he got his head straight.
