First things first, Nava Katz is NOT unlikable. She is quirky! And she is also not particularly good at demon-hunting, what with being thrown into it entirely unexpectedly, hence without training.
As a Buffy-fan and someone who can’t move past a book with the word “demons” in the title, I, of course, had to get this one. And I have no regrets! This is a very entertaining Urban Fantasy with some great sex scenes. Romance… not so much yet. I assume Nava will still have to work out some personal issues before she and her friend with benefits can become more. She’s a pretty complex protagonist and I felt I could relate to her. She has many different sides to her personality, being kind of a badass, but also in some ways scared of being hurt and shaken from past experiences. She feels like a real person, not a cardboard-character that you can describe with one word.
The Narration
This series is narrated by Hollie Jackson. I’m considering a rename of this blog to “Hollie Jackson fan club” because it is dawning on me that I can never go wrong with an audiobook narrated by her. Obviously, her narration is always top-notch, but the stories she chooses are usually right down my alley, too.
Recommendation
I haven’t finished this series so I can’t stay anything about that as a whole. This book is mainly an introduction to the world and life of Nava. But if you’re looking for a fun Urban Fantasy or Paranormal Romance that doesn’t take itself too seriously, has demons, and truly diverse characters without stereotyping, then this is definitely a good choice!
This series is complete and all ebooks are in Kindle Unlimited. The audiobooks all have a Whispersync deal so Kindle Unlimited subscribers can pick them up for a reduced price when downloading the free ebook.
