I always seem to be the last to jump on a series bandwagon, so I’ve made peace with the fact that a series has already come to an end by the time I start it. Kate Daniels, though, is hitting particularly hard. Kate and Curran are such wonderful characters, have shown such growth, and put... Continue Reading →
I'm so lucky to have Birdie Bookworm as my blogging buddy. When we realized the release of Magic Triumphs was coming right up, I proposed we revamp our discussion schedule and read this instead. She was instantly on board, and I am so glad! I could have done a re-read alone, but it wouldn't have... Continue Reading →

In fact, I'd go so far to say I was dreading this particular installment and... Continue Reading →
I am a romance lover first and foremost, and boy does the Kate Daniels series feed my ever-loving soul. There's no denying that Kate and Curran steam up the pages, but even aside from that, this book was action all over the place. The dynamics between the characters are stellar, and I know i say this every... Continue Reading →
While this re-read is making me love the Kate Daniels series even more, it's also making me realize how little I retain as a reader. There was a part in this book (the last 10 percent or so,) that left such an impression on me the first time around that I was sure it was the bulk... Continue Reading →
We're up to Magic Strikes, the third book in our re-read discussion, guys. Can you believe it? I feel like it's flying right by, and to top it off, these feel like brand new books to me.
