Second book in the series

Dr Greta Helsing is in Paris for a medical conference and gets to see far more of Paris' underground world than she intended to.
Includes cute monsters.

TheSpineView I think there are two more books before we get to the book dedicated to Blay and Quinn. It will be worth the wait. 1d

Urban Fantasy set in London with vampires, ghouls, witches,..., and Dr Van Helsing. What's not to like?

Already have the next one in the pipeline.

Happy Pride Month everyone! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The tagged book is my choice for June‘s #QueerBC and I can‘t wait to get to it. I‘ve loved everything else I‘ve read by Zen Cho, although this looks pretty different.

#SundayFunday Hope you all have a safe and wonderful day, and don‘t forget to tag me!

julesG It's good, if a bit weird. I truly enjoyed it. 3d

I'm not sure now that I've finished it that it was worth it.

Things I liked: lots of queerness, Mallory's fibro, the closeness of the main characters, the platonic love between Mallory and Theodore. Forensic science on magic.

Things I didn't like: it felt kinda of... young? The concerns of the trio of girls were very teenage. The real clues started to become so obvious. Obnoxious monologuing to explain a load of tortured clues.

shanaqui It was *okay*, just... I want more than okay for 2h30m of investment (probably more than that for a lot of people; I'm a relatively fast reader).

I'm close to my #BookSpinBingo blackout, anyway!

I am determined to finish this tonight, but I have to pause to scream and clear my mind about how obviously they have the wrong culprit.
