Succucus Blues

 7/31/22

Well I finally started my next book. I've literally only read four pages of this book. So far I have a main character, which I'm assuming is a succubus, and she is full of attitude. I think I like this character already. Also we start the book with her dreading an assignment she was given. I guess to help a thirty something year old man in helping them finally getting some spicy action. So far that is all I know. I never read what the book is about and I tell myself that I should. Yet, I still don't do it. One day I will learn my lesson. I guess the only way we are going to learn about the book is to read about it. Oh, I almost forgot. The cover of the book I have is completely different than the one on goodreads. If there is a way to change the version you are reading, I still haven't figured it out since they updated the website. Eventually I will figure it out if you can.

Well this book is taking me forever to read. I will not be surprised if I DNF the book. You also know that I'm not enjoying the book when after a few chapters, I just want to take a nap. I think we might be getting our first one star with this one. If this book does end up being a one star, I will not be reading the next book. Don't get me wrong, there are some elements in the book I like. Like the whole mystery of who is harming and killing all of the immortals but it isn't playing a big enough part to keep the book interesting. I'm at the point where I'm not sure if the book is a mystery, as romance, or something else. I don't even know how to classify this book other than adult supernatural fiction. I am hoping that I don't DNF the book but if it doesn't pick up soon, I just might.

I tried. I really did. But after reading two more chapters and almost falling asleep on the couch, I decided to not torture myself anymore. As much as I wanted to read this book, I just can't keep reading it. This was a book I thought I'd like because I liked a similar book series to this one called the Riley Jenson Series by Keri Arthur. Both have mysteries going on, both are supernatural books, both have strong lead women that don't like to go by the rules to get the answers they want. But sadly this book is a little dry to me. It is so boring and nothing really happens. Yes the main character's friends get attacked or have the fear of being attacked, but like I said before, the book doesn't focus on that enough to keep the story interesting. Instead the story just focuses on the main character and how she is fighting her succubus urges while trying to live a normal life. I would have to give this book one star because it was boring and dry to me. It probably has potential but I didn't like it at all. I'm sure that someone would like this book and I would recommend it to them if they like the slow mystery like books. With a hint of romance. But this book is just not for me at all.
