review 1: And fate has intervened again on my behalf to help me find another fresh and exciting new series! I stumbled upon on of Painter's books by accident a little while ago and was intrigued. After a lite research I decided to pick up Blood Rights. Which was a great decision, although the cover is so terrible it kills me inside. The premise and world building of this new world is wholly original and vastly entertaining. I mean geisha's for vampires (that kick ass too!) come on how could you go wrong? The writing was fluids and interesting, and the jumping between POV was handled pretty well. The characters were interesting namely Mal and Chrysabelle who were much more well rounded in comparison to some of the side characters. I would have liked to seen a big more of Fi and Doc ... morebut ah well. And of course it would be bad of me to to mention Tatiana - Damn that B*tch is cray cray. The end reveal about her was interesting although I did guess it before hand, but u didn't mind. I am excited to read the next one - and I am right now itching to run to chapters and buy it even though it's well passed midnight- it is to bad blood stores don't run on a vampire schedule!
review 2: BloodRights; Kristen Painter, 2011Hand over heart - or maybe I should say, hand over jugular - when I first picked up Blood Rights, I wasn't sure it was something I wanted to read. First, it's by an unknown author (at least to me). Second, it was on a subject that has been written to death (forgive the pun). And third, I had just finished reading the latest book in Jeaniene Frost's 'Night Huntress' series, and didn't feel like reading some other authors rendition of the same genre - at least not for a week or so.Face it, sometimes a reader can get so caught up in the characters in one series, to read about someone else in another, just feels like cheating. Maybe I'm the only one who feels this way, but I doubt it.With that said, I finally bit the bullet, asked Cat and Bones to forgive me, and began reading Kristen Painter's Blood Rights (House of Comarre). It only took a couple of pages and I was hooked. Whatever emotional attachment I had going for my previous fav's, had to make room for the new kids on the block - Chrystabelle and Malkhom.So much for fidelity.Fast paced. Interesting characters. Plot twisting. Unique addition to an already well established genre. In other words, because of 'Blood Rights' there were several days I didn't get a whole lot of writing done on my own novel.As for spoiler alerts, I'd say it was like reading the modern-day version of Frankenstein meets Electra meets Cruella De Vil meets the Volturi, with Casper the Ghost and Kitty Kitty thrown in for good measure. An interesting crew of characters that hate to love and love to hate, with enough vampiric mystery and suspense to compel its readers to keeping turning the pages until their done.On my readers scale of 1-5 stars, I'm giving Blood Rights 3.5 stars for a great read, and Kristen Painter 4, for proving to readers that there is always a new way to skin an old genre. less
