....And Then The Fandoms Came

I love Eve Dallas, and Roarke and Mavis and Peabody. I love this series, and anytime I get to settle down and read a book from it, I get so happy. Buying the first few books for my Kindle when they were on sale (not knowing whether or not I WOULD like the series or not) turned out to be a great purchase.

But that being said, I was a little bit disappointed in this book, and that is why I just changed my stars from 5 to 4, because it seems a little bit repetitive now. In book after book, and this is only book 4, it's basically the same formula. Murder happens, Eve investigates, Mavis (lately) is involved somehow, and of course Roarke is somehow involved. Been there, done that 3 other times now. It would be nice to mix up the formula just a little bit, because that one is starting to get a tad bit stale.

Not that it was the exact same thing. The murders were new, of course, and technically it was a brand new story, so it was just fresh enough to keep me interested and for me to give it 4 stars. Initially 5 stars, in fact, in the after glow of an exciting finish, even.

And just because the formula is the same, is not enough to deter me from reading at least the rest of the books that I bought for my Kindle. I spent my money on them, so I might as well read them and see how they go, and I'll see how it goes from there. This book was certainly good enough to keep me wanting more, and hopefully the rest will be the same. And as I've already said, I love the main characters. They definitely keep me wanting to come back for more, because they are so interesting and well written. Reading about them is like coming back to old friends. You just feel like you know them.
