review 1: While I still can't decide if this series is urban fantasy with romantic elements or romance with urban fantasy elements (its a real genre buster considering that it definitely reads with more of a romance feel yet lacks that whole definitive, end of story HEA conclusion of romances, instead carrying the story forward over multiple books like a UF), what I can decide on is that I have thoroughly enjoyed the entire run. I've read this is the last book in the series, yet there is a lot of unresolved plot at the end of Ritual Magic. The Big Bad - not defeated. The minion of the Big Bad - status undetermined. I'm curious if the plot will pick up again - just maybe not with Lily & Rule being the central characters? Maybe Cullen and Cynna? If not... I have to say I'll be disappo... moreinted. These unresolved major plot elements are why I can't give this book a rousing 5 stars. Otherwise, I enjoyed the plot arc of the story, especially the exploration of Lily's mom's character which lead to an exploration of Lily as well. The action was, as usual, exciting. The character interactions were, again as usual, excellent.I would definitely recommend this book - but only if you've read the rest of the series! Otherwise you would be very lost and also miss out on the subtle elements that made the book a good read.
review 2: I have to say that I love this series because so far, Eileen Wilks hasn’t descended into the lazy and terrible excuse for writing that some of my other (ex) favorites did. *cough*Laurell K. Hamilton*cough*. She hasn’t run out of fresh ideas and always manages to keep the reader interested even though there have been so many books published in this series. I’m hoping she proves to be one of those authors that stays relevant by writing for as long as she has something to write about and stopping the series when there is nothing further to talk about.This book begins when Liky’s mother suddenly and inexplicably loses her memories after 12 years old. So essentially, she is a 12 year old stuck in the body of a 57 year old woman and is understandably confused and terrified. Lily finds traces of magic on her mother and when she finds that the same thing has been done to dozens of other people, begins to investigate the magical cause of the problem. The ghost of Al Drummond makes an appearance in this book, helping Lily with her investigation and we are also graced with appearances from all of our favorites including grandmother, Benedict, Arjenie, and others. I enjoyed seeing more of Lily’s mother’s past and what made her the way she is and I liked seeing the newfound development of her relationship with Lily. less
