I found this under “paranormal romance”. There are romance elements but I’d say this is more of a screwball paranormal novel with some tense plot moments. The writing was to-the-point and there are a lot of bizarre and funny scenes. Edie made some terrible decisions so it could be hard to relate to her, however she felt like your gal pal who’s a hot mess at all times but who you love anyways. Anna and her character development were lovely. Grandfather was my fave. Jake I could’ve done without, he felt like a “the plot requires me to exist” character. I liked the world building and wish we got more of it. I didn’t really understand how all this paranormal activity could be going on, yet the majority of the world had no idea vampires/shapeshifters/werewolves/etc existed. 

I did not know this was a series before I started it, so the ending (being somewhat unresolved) was annoying.

Fuck Asher and you know what, fuck Ti too. I was rooting so hard for him and then he up and left like a coward.

Pros:
I like the variety of supernatural creatures and their interactions amongst each other
The mystery and stakes of the plot interested me and once I was hook it kept me

Cons:
The author writes like she HATES people with substance abuse issues (drugs, alcohol). They are constantly objects of the main character's scorn, butts of jokes, and victims of meaningless violence. It happens so often and so much (will not spoil) that it distracts from the story and makes me (someone with these issues) feel pretty crappy about myself.
This reads like the author doesn't have much writing or even READING experience. it's like she read one or two medical dramas or perhaps watched some Grey's Anatomy and thought "Hey I could do that!"
