Original Review 5/16/14:
3.5 Stars

These books leave me so confused! This book was like a cross of an early Sookie Stackhouse and an early (But Lighter) Anita Blake. And whereas I enjoyed both of those, it's NOT what I've come to expect from Jacqueline Carey.

I LOVED the Kushiel Series', these were deep and multilayered, and vibrant, and the characters were intimately painted. (Not to mention 3 times as long).

I feel almost as if the author thought "why am I spending so much time on these deep long ...more

AUTUMN BONES is another unexpected ride, full of ups and downs and a lot more twists than I thought I could handle. I was unprepared by how much I enjoyed this sequel. I am quickly becoming addicted to anything and everything Daisy related. She’s one of my favorite heroines this past year!

This 3* rating is a "there stuff I like and stuff I don't" 3* rather than a "meh" 3*. So, what do I like?

Very good. I like Daisy, especially how she makes mistakes and isnt all-powerful but can kick ass when needed. Love triangle was a bit ugh but overall a good read.
