Elite
Elite: A Hunter novel | Mercedes Lackey
Hunting monsters was supposed to be the hard part. When Joy came to Apex City, all she cared about was protecting the Cits from the dangers lurking outside protective barriers. She understood the need for the secrecy surrounding her Hunts—no need to cause a panic by announcing just how real a threat the Othersiders pose. But as she quickly discovered, the conspiracies of the city run much deeper. And a dangerous new covert mission leaves Joy with a target on her back once more. Under the orders of her uncle, the city's Prefect, Joy begins patrolling the abandoned tunnels and storm sewers under Apex Central. With her large pack of magical hounds, she can fight the monsters breaking through the barriers with the strength of three hunters. Then she starts finding bodies. Psimons are turning up dead in the bowels of the city with no apparent injury. Reporting the incidents makes Joy the uncomfortable object of PsiCorp's scrutiny—the organization appears more interested in keeping her quiet than investigating. Joy's situation grows more precarious and her relationship with her Psimon boyfriend Josh begins to fray. Long-held tensions between PsiCorp and the Hunters seem to be reaching a breaking point. While infighting threatens the stability of Apex City, Othersider forces are gaining strength and momentum outside the borders. Joy desperately seeks answers to figure out who her real enemies are before she and everyone she cares about are locked into an all-out war...

A great second book, which almost never happens in a trilogy.
Joy became an Elite Hunter to escape the constant demands of an Apex Hunter (their entire lives are on screen and viewer Rankings mean more than saving people) but as an Elite she must navigate even more treacherous politics, and avoid exposing her hometown and the people there to the corrupt leaders of the various factions in Apex while protecting her Uncle.
5/5 stars

Second book in the series! I recently reviewed the first. One thing I didn‘t say was how great the world building was. There are monsters from all folklores, though slightly changed. All the people act like humans and the MC is shown not being strong all the time (something I wish I saw more) Also, no love triangles, but still a little romance. This isn‘t as much a review of the book but I didn‘t want any spoilers! I would recommend it!

It's cold and rainy and I can't sleep. So I let my book ADD win and bought this gem that I've been longingly staring at for months. I didn't want to like this series but I really really do! I will say that if you start reading the first book, Hunter, stick with it, even though the beginning drags on a while. It picks up and then you're done and wanting more! #currentlyread
