“Quote-Tastic Monday” is a meme hosted every Monday on Herding Cats & Burning Soup. Head on over there to see what everyone else is posting about this week.
Yes, yes, I know. It’s not Monday. Let it go people. I’m on Christmas break.
I have three other books that I should have already reviewed. I had every intention of reviewing them before I STARTED ANOTHER BOOK. So what happens? A new Innkeeper Chronicles title is released. All of my good intentions went the way of intentions everywhere at this time of year. In other words, I ignored them.
I used the second book in this series for my Quote-tastic Monday back in November. I had just discovered the series at that time and, obviously, could not wait for the third book. It’s an amazing series. There are aliens (of the outer space variety), vampires, werewolves, and of course, Innkeepers. What I find funny with this post though is that the two quotes I highlighted to use both deal with Dina’s relationship with her sister Maud. There are lots of exciting things happening in the book: alien invaders, interstellar travel, things blowing up, and romance. But what struck me was the sisters. So, here goes,
Maud is in the beginning of a relationship with a vampire warrior. Did I mention the vampires are from another planet too? Anyway, they are having a difference of opinion and he has done something particularly stupid.
My sister did that narrow thing with her eyes that used to make me run yelling for Mom . . .
And yes, he survives.
Later, Maud and Dina are talking about Christmas presents and Dina wants to know what Maud is getting her.
“I’m not going to tell you and I won’t let you snoop either. You were always a terrible sneak, Dina.”
“That’s a lie. I’m an excellent sneak.”
I love it! The only problem with this series is that there are only three books. This is definitely one that I could binge read. I highly recommend them. As you can tell, I think they are wonderful.
