Book

Undead and Unsure (2013)

While I have enjoyed most of Betsy's adventures so far, I can't say this one thrilled me. I was seriously thinking about not finishing the book (quite a rarity for me to consider such a thing) when we suddenly heard the story from Eric Sinclair's perspective (Sink Lair, king of vampires, Betsy's...

Book

Undead and Underwater (2013)

This anthology is three novellas. The first "Super, Girl!" would only get a 2-star rating if it was a stand-alone work. A superhero who has to eat staples and dirt or anything handy to maintain her super abilities is a little off-putting, though I'm happy for her that she found a true love that f...

Book

Undead and Unstable (2012)

I believe it was said that Unstable is the 3rd in a mini-trilogy of sorts & of that I am glad. This story line was a wee bit hard to swallow for 3 books, but it wrapped up & alls well that ends well. I think. I am still not sure I like Sinclair as quite so mushy & emotional & open. I think I like...

Book

Kein Biss unter dieser Nummer (2014)

Although not as light and fluffy fun as the first few books in the Undead series, it is probably the better of the current story arc. It has gotten so crammed with characters or with the could be confusing story of parallel dimensions and time traveling that the humor of the original books is nea...

Book

Undead and Unwelcome (2009)

Vampires and werewolves, a classic tale. I was prepared for eye rolling here. We met the Wyndam werewolves in the short story "Fiend in Need," and I actually liked them and would love to read their series in the future, but I just wasn't sure how this story was going to play out. It was nice to s...

Book

Faeries Gone Wild (2009)

I picked this to read basically for the story by MaryJanice Davidson. Turns out, for me, hers was by far the weakest of the four stories here. "Tall Dark and Not So Fairy" seemed like she wrote it in her sleep..or halfway drunk. My favorite story was "Dust Me, Baby, One More Time" by Michele Hauf...

Book

Wer zweimal stirbt, ist länger tot (2000)

The end of the last book was awful. This one starts out weird and kinda terrible. It has more redeeming parts than the last one and there are certainly still some humorous things cropping up, but I'm starting to wonder why the series is going in this direction because it's not as fun as it used t...

Book

Undead and Unwelcome (Undead #8) (2009)

In this installment, Betsy, Sinclair, Baby John and Jessica go to the cape to pay their respects to Antonia, who gave her life to defend Betsy. The werewolves give them a luke-warm reception. Meanwhile, Mark is having his own problems with Betsy’s devil-spawned sister Lara. The story wasn’t as i...

Book

Man stirbt nur zweimal (2010)

Well i'll start by saying that it was a bit weird that every other chapter consisted of Marc's side of the events, but it was entertaining.Betsy finlly takes Antonia back to her Pack for proper burial and is forced to face their murderous stares..Betsy finds out what makes the werewolves antsy ar...

Book

Undead and Unfinished (2010)

Now that was more like it! Betsy back to her best and probably the most interesting book of the series so far in regard to plot line. I couldn't put this one down and just needed to constantly know where the story was going to take us. I am officially hooked again and now have a million unanswere...

Book

Vampire et déboussolée (2013)

This book started off rocky but by the end it reminded me of what I enjoyed in this series. This book started off rocky but by the end it reminded me of what I enjoyed in this series.

Book

Drei sind zwei zuviel (2012)

Initially, I didn't think I would finish this book. I had not read the first book in the series, so I read reviews about the first book on Goodreads before I understood that the premise of the book is that Cadence has Multiple Personality Disorder, and the book fluctuates between her 3 different...

Book

Cadence Jones ermittelt:: Drei sind zwei zu viel (2012)

Was not very impressed with this book, I am usually able to read MaryJanice Davidson books very quickly. This one took almost two weeks. I don't like taking that long to read any book. It just seemed much choppier than the first. It was an okay effort but fell flat. I think she's going for m...

Book

Outta the Bag (2010)

This short story is a prequel to Me, Myself and Why and sets up the odd but intriguing idea of an FBI agent harboring three different personalities. Poor Mr. Better, stuck trying to figure out what the beautiful but very scary strange girl with the runaway cat and not get himself injured (or more...

Book

Undead and Unwary (2014)

I've always been a big fan of the Betsy series, but I feel that the story lines are getting a little too flaky. I enjoyed the book, but spent a lot of the time wondering what was going on - not always in the fun way, either. Betsy is getting much more scattered (who could have thought that possib...

Book

Dying For You (2012)

Really, I think this should be a 3.5. I will go ahead and rate each story separately. The Fixer-Upper: I would give this story a solid three. It was a good concept, but I still had issues with the ending. Paradise Bossed: Unfortunately, I would give this story a two. This was by far the weakest o...

Book

Really Unusual Bad Boys (2005)

Trigger Warning- SuicideI don't think that suicide should have been included, especially given that the cover and blurb don't even hint at it. I honestly feel like Davidson could have written the story without including it (surely just having Lois realise she hated her life and wished she was any...

Book

Doing It Right (2007)

Two novellas in one book and FUN with a capital F!The First Novella "Thief of Hearts" is about an E.R. doctor named Dr. Jared Dean and Kara - who is better known on the streets as The Avenging Angel. They have a chance encounter and their lives become entwined in a screwball "it can only happen i...

Book

Under Cover (2004)

~4/5[Also available on my blog.]This book is made up of three intertwining short stories, and I kind of loved them. I even kind of wish Davidson’s other stories were a bit more like this. And, oddly enough, I kind of think that Davidson shines a bit more in short stories than in full length novel...

Book

The Royal Pain (2005)

In a world nearly identical to ours, the North won the Civil War, Ben and JLo got married, and everyone dresses well to attend the Grammys. Oh, and Russia never sold Alaska to the U.S. Instead, Alaska is a rough, beautiful country ruled by a famously eccentric royal family, including oldest daugh...

Finally another mermaid, ...

Book

Undead and Unwed (2004)

Ohhh what a pleasant surprise! I tried this book because I really liked the title and I ended up really liking it!We meet Betsy Taylor. Yeah, her full name is Elizabeth. So... its Elizabeth Taylor. Don't say it - she's already heard it all! But THIS Elizabeth Taylor is a recently laid off se...

Book

Sure, her mother and her best friend adjusted to the change amazingly but even with that support, Betsy cannot seem to stay out of trouble. When Betsy learns that she has a half sister, she is draw...

Book

Valentine's Day Is Killing Me (2006)

I read this of course for Maryjanice Davidson and ended up liking the whole book. It took me awhile to admit to myself that I like romance novels. I read this one when I was still heavy in denial. With it's pink cover, cutesy cherub and being about all things Valentines day. I was certain I would...

Book

Undead and Unemployed (2004)

Book

The Royal Mess (2007)

In a world nearly identical to ours, the North won the Civil War, flannel is the new bling, and Russia never sold Alaska to the U.S. Instead, Alaska is a beautiful, rough-and-tumble country ruled by a famously eccentric royal family who put the fun back in dysfunctional. And the tabloid darlings ...

Book

The Royal Treatment (2004)

Hysterically funny read! If you're looking for The Thornbirds or The Tudors - don't stop here. This is a book for those of us who worship at the altar of snarky dialogue. And for those who love a heroine so far south of Cinderella that she wouldn't have gone to the ball unless she was really b...

Book

Book

Undead and Uneasy (2007)

3 1/2 starsI read the first two books in this series back in 2004. I know, that was ages ago. I loved Undead and Unwed so much I gave it an A- at All About Romance. I loved the sarcasm and the over-the-top superficial heroine and the in-your-face sensuality all of which wasn't overdone yet back ...

Book

Undead and Unpopular (2007)

“This place drives me nuts sometimes: nutty vampires, a bitchy werewolf, a zombie, a grumpy billionaire, and a vampire on a hunger strike.”Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? Well, sadly, the book isn’t that thunderous and comical as you may think from the quote above. Yes, all of the aforementioned creatu...

Book

Sleeping with the Fishes (2006)

I started and finished this the same day; heck, it only took a couple of hours, all total, to read this foul-mouthed, vapid, empty piece of garbage. I wanted to like this book, despite a friend's warning of its awfulness rattling around in my head. It had such potential. There are all manner o...

The Silver Moon Elm (2007)

Scaly skin, family fights...it's tough being a teenage dragon. Jennifer was just starting to get comfortable in her own skin, scaly as it is. She should have known that, as half-weredragon, half-beaststalker, things don't stay normal for too long... Following through on a promise made to her moth...

Danger, Sweetheart

Rake stared at the older woman who had been waiting, along with their mother, in the kitchen when he and Blake got home from school thirty seconds ago. The kettle had boiled; there were two cups of tea on the card table along with the plastic sugar bowl and spoons. “Our father’s dead?” “I’m afrai...

Book

Undead and Unforgiven (2015)

Not literally. Which was too bad. I was also thinking about kicking his shins, but I’d have to get in front of him first, and he was a speedy sucker. “I can’t believe you’re pulling this Fred Flintstone shit again.” “I cannot believe you insist on comparing real-life probl...

Book

Thief of Hearts

“Who the hell is that?” Carlotti asked, perplexed. He was right to be perplexed, Kara thought. This wasn’t a neighborhood where one knocked. Certainly the police wouldn’t bother. And anyone who belonged in this warehouse was here right now. So who was it? “Girl Scout cookie time already?” she ask...

Book

Dead Over Heels

Well, that was her prerogative, and it wasn’t like he didn’t have it coming, leaving her like that for his stupid career. He got the shakes every time he thought of how stupid he’d been, how he’d thrown happiness away with both hands and never even looked back. Stupid Con! Ree had been right all ...

Book

Undead and Undermined

Because I’d never fed on Nick/Dick in this new reality. And for the first time, instead of being weirded out or scared by an out-of-the-blue change, I thought maybe that was a really good thing. How often in life do we get a do-over? “Are you married? Was I there? What did...

Demon's Delight (2007)

It perfectly explained Chris Mere, the big grabby rhyming kissing dolt.And the bastard was strong.

She’d tried her very best to beat the hell out of him, and he’d...

Deja Who

Leah braved a peek at Archer, who didn’t seem a) horrified, b) revolted, or c) bored. Just interested, and concerned. “The ones where I’m not an impotent observer, yes.” “What are you talking about, impotent? You—” “It means—...

Book

Undead and Unworthy

After Wendy's, we'd ended up going back to the mansion and telling him and Tina what had happened. It was the first night of the full moon; Antonia was running around somewhere on all fours.

Fish Out of Water

For the hundredth time, she questioned the king’s wisdom in making her the go-between between surface dwellers and Undersea Folk. The king’s argument—that she was the only half-and-half on the planet—had seemed so logical at the time . . . Clearly he had paid no attention to her poor interpersona...
