I use the Goodreads app on my phone to track what I've read and what I want to read. If you've not checked out Goodreads, do. There's book lists, groups, reviews, and more. You can also follow what friends and others are reading. I mention this because I follow what Felicia Day reads. I start following her because I'm a geek and Felicia seems to have the same kind of sense of humour I do. That is if one can make these decisions based on roles an actor chooses... Yeah, I know. Weak logic. Bottom line is, I'm a geek with a girl crush on Felicia and thought I'd try to read some of the titles she's been reading. Which leads me to Unholy Ghosts by Stacia Kane.
The story isn't all that uncommon in the urban fantasy realm, bordering on paranormal romance... Woman discovers there's more to the world than she thought. One of the persons involved in this revelation for the heroine is a man who she must resist (for the first half of the book anyway). You know how it ends.
That aside, I had a great time reading this book. Stacia Kane created a world of demons that do not behave quite the way you expect them too. It's those changes, or twisting of the known, that seems to be a reoccurring point for me. That new viewpoint in an otherwise redundant story.
Not necessarily a glowing "review" of the book. Which makes me a bit sad as I really did enjoy the book. So, if any one does read this blog and is unsure about Unholy Ghosts, my advice is to pick it up, read a few chapters and make your own decision.
