Patricia Briggs’ Mercy Thompson series is easily my favorite paranormal series. I have to say, this wasn’t my favorite book in the series by far and I did keep on picking it up and putting it down again (rather than read obsessively) but I’m by no means done with Mercy’s adventures. I think maybe Briggs is a little at a loss with her character now that she’s settled down and doesn’t *quite* know what to do with her next. Anyway, it’s not a great book, but I liked it.
