Dark Bites

 Yes, I know that its another Sherrilyn Kenyon book and you are most likely getting sick of the book by now. But I can't help but love her work. And since I'm being honest, I almost didn't get this book. I thought it was going to be one of those novellas that I tend to skip and miss a chunk of the series. But thank the lord that I did not or else I would be sad. I'm actually pretty excited to officially start this book. I usually go into this series without reading anything about the book. I like to keep the mystery alive when it comes to the dark hunters. From what I can see this book is going to have a lot of mini stories, meaning that I'm going to be done with this book pretty quick. I think. I guess it all depends how much I get pulled into the book. Don't you think it's time for me to crack open the cover and dive into the world of the dark hunters? Or, should I wrap up my last book first? Either way, I'll keep you posted on what is all going on. Maybe.

 So here is the rundown on what is going on with this book. From what I've said before, this book is a whole much of short stories put together. The first story is the legend that was mentioned in Styxx and it's actually nice to see what actually went down that caused Bethany to be reborn and what not. Also, I was kind of curious on how Apollo tricked her into killing her lover, now I know. The cheating jerk. Anyways, it took me a while to figure out what was going on with the second short story. Basically, it's another one explaining the ways of being a dream god that has the law to not fall into love or feel any emotion whats so ever. But the story is interesting because it basically tells you that no matter how much you try to feel no emotion, there is always going to be that one person who makes you feel at least something. I think we have a theme here at this point in the book by the way. Just saying.

I'm two more short stories into the book and about halfway through. I'm starting to think that there is going to be at least two stories for each quarter of the book. But for now, I will give you a little input on the two stories I had just read. The first one is about a were-panther who was taken from her home and is on the run from the enemy. And, while she is out looking for help to return home, she just so happens so find her mate. Didn't like it at first, but ends up accepting it and lives happily ever after. Read the book to get a more detailed story. The next story was pretty short. It's about a young dark hunter during Christmas. I say young because he has only been a dark hunter for a little over a hundred years. Like he still has direct descendants still alive. He even runs into his great granddaughter and gets consumed by loneliness. It takes out favorite demon Simi to lift his spirits for the holidays and realize that he has a new family. Once again read the book to get a detailed story. That is pretty much about it. Sorry for not making a longer post. Maybe next time.

I read about three stories since the last time I posted. The first one is about Dracula's daughter and how she had this whole misunderstanding along with her husband. They try to hate each other, but can't help to feel the love for the other. It takes them almost dying to finally give in to their feelings. The next story is similar to one of the earlier stories I read in the series, but I can't remember the title of the book. Maybe one of you can refresh my memory. But the story has the squire fall in love with the dark hunter they are in charge with. Really wish I could remember the story it reminds me of. The last story and the one I just wrapped up is about Fury and how he found his long lost mate. They weren't mated yet, only due to the lies she was told about his kind. Another story about misunderstanding and only believing what you want to believe. But I have to be honest here, I'm actually glad that I'm almost done with this book. Nothing against the book, I enjoy the little stories that explain certain things that have been going on in the series. It answers some of those unanswered questions. But I'm ready to dive back into the series and just have the whole book focused on one person instead of many. Maybe this is why I avoid short story books.
