Let‘s do another author binge.....I have everything before Obsidian Butterfly on my kindle.

I really enjoyed this Anita Blake installment - lots of blood and gun fights as always but I really appreciated there was a change to the pace, the language and syntax has really improved compared to the first book in the series. The setting in New Mexico was refreshing and the references to Aztec culture gave a new freshness to the overall story.

Status: I own this one in hardcover, and sadly it was the first book I thought of for the prompt gory...which is pretty telling since according to GR I read it back in 2010! That probably should have been my hint to abandon the series then, sadly I think I read another 15 books before finally calling it quits. 🤦♀️

I can‘t find the physical book, so I switched to audio version.

I swear, I haven't dropped off the radar again. I just spent a good chunk of my week sick. Got bad enough I even took a whole day off work, which I rarely ever do. Pretty much recovered now. On the bright side, I got some reading done.

I haven‘t been reading much lately so to get back into the swing of things I picked up one of my old favorites. Badass female lead, assassins, zombies, and crime drama. What more could you want? It has a fun fast paced story and focuses mainly on your friendly neighborhood Assassin Edward. There are a few cringe worthy moments in the book that I didn‘t recall so trigger warning, but it is considered horror. A solid 8/10.
“Edward wonders why I am so sympathetic to the monsters. The answer is simple. Because I am one.” I really liked seeing Anita off working on her own with Edward & no Jean Claude or Richard in sight. But there was one child abuse scene that could have been left out.

Four books with bugs in the title... all of which I enjoyed (to varying degrees). 😃
I have always enjoyed this book. It's quite a different take from the others. First off, we're in New Mexico. It's nice seeing Anita in a non midwestern state. But secondly, the novel has a big focus on Edward which is awesome. He's such a great character, I love the focus on him in this book.
The sad part is, there isn't an Anita Blake audiobook for the next 7 books. I'm already dying a little without having Kimberly Alexis to listen to.
