Demon Possessed (Megan Chase)
This book wrapped itself around my heart, and squeezed and squeezed and squeezed! It had emotional angst, romantic tension, and life altering decisions that threw everyone, (including me) for a loop. I seriously didn’t see it coming…but then again, I never see it coming 😉 This was THE best book in the series, and one of my favorite books of the year. I would, however recommend that you read the first two before hitting this one, to get an idea of everything Meg has been through up until now, and to develop an attachment to the characters like I did. Following the series properly will allow for the reader to get the best possible “oomph” when they finally get to the part that rocked my world. You’ll be so emotionally invested by then, that you’ll feel every sting.
My Book Reviews
Book Review – Demon Inside by Stacia Kane
Demon Inside
Book#2 in the series (this one) was “good”. But book #3…WOW!!! I read that one straight through without stopping, and I’m still thinking about it.
But I digress. This is the review for book#2, and I shall continue with it. Now when I say “good”, it’s actually more of a description of how I felt when I finished the story. I could easily acknowledge that the story was interesting, but I didn’t feel elated when it was done (like I did with books# 1 & 3). The whole first half was intriguing, and I was having a hard time putting the book down, but at a certain point, the battles became exhausting and were just a little too drawn out to hold my interest.
Book Review – Personal Demons by Stacia Kane
My first foray back in to the paranormal romance world after my “Terrible” urban fantasy-fest last week was hard. It still is. I keep thinking about re-reading the entire Downside series because, let’s be honest. I wasn’t ready to leave their world. Lily and I still can’t stop chatting daily about our favorite parts, favorite lines, what-ifs, what’s coming… But we both agreed. It was time to move on. Now I admit, I haven’t strayed far, since I’m still reading books from the same author. I just finished book one in Stacia Kane’s Megan Chase series. Had I read it before my Terrible addiction, I would most likely be raving about it in my review. But perhaps my “Terrible bias” is holding me back from becoming completely absorbed with Dante (the hero in this book). Poooor unbelievably sexy, suave, cool and aloof Greyson Dante. Actually… nothing poor about him, if we go by the tale told. But in my little “Terrible-obsessed” reading world, he almost didn’t stand a chance (key word being “almost”).
Wrapping Up My “Terrible” Weekend with my Favorite Parts:
Sheeesh, this is gonna be hard. I’ve highlighted all of my favorite parts in each book, but it looks like I’ve highlighted everything! How to choose?
Okay some stuff is too spoilerish for here, so I can omit those…some stuff is too *HOT* for here, so noooo. Whoa! Wonder if I can double highlight THAT…tee hee 😉
So many parts that I’ve re-read just to get that “feeling” again, so here are some of my favorites:
Book#1 (Unholy Ghosts): Since I was just getting to know the characters, I wasn’t attached to anyone in particular, so these are my favorite parts, Terrible-bias-free 😉
What’s In Store For Stacia Kane’s Downside Ghosts Series?
Since I’m dying to know anything and EVERYTHING about Terrible and the Downside Ghosts series, I figured I’d scour the internet for the good stuff – so this will be my own personal “Downside Ghosts Tidbits Page” that I will update and share with you.
And what better way to get some info, than directly from the author herself?
Stacia hosted an awesome “question and answer” session on her website a few weeks ago when I was, unfortunately, still Downside-ignorant and didn’t know enough to participate. However, in my search, I have had many questions answered, because many diehards knew what to ask. So thank you!
