Succubus Nights
Having had an attack of the meh's about the first novel, the second took me by surprise with just how good it was. Far more entertaining and it seemed to hang together better. It started to address some of the flaws that the first book had and it was good. Georgina Kincaid was less irritating and supah speshal and was far more likable.
The pacing was good and I really enjoyed.
Succubus Dreams
With good vibes from the second book I really looked forward to the third one, and was disappointed.
Maybe it's like Star Trek films and only the even number books are entertaining.
What got me, was the lead character's attitude and the drama she generates. Obviously the protagonist has to generate drama but meh it didn't do it for me. I found her annoying and in a number of ways incredibly selfish.
Also the relationship with Seth. IDEK I can only assume that Richelle Mead thought that the readers would think it sweet that Seth Calls her Thetis and in a way it is a creature from mythology who was a shape shifter and so is she. But I've been on the recieving end of someone bestowing a new name upon me and it wasn't done to be sweet, it was done to manipulate and control.
I don't think the relationship was written particularly well.
So for reading the first three books in the series I'm unlikely to read any more.
