review 1: I'm hooked on this series. Love the PUPIs. I don't quite get why she does part of the book in 1st person (Bonnie) and part in 3rd person. Why not just make the whole book 3rd person? But anyway, I love the world she's created. I do have a fear that it's going to turn into 10 books of "will they or won't they" for Bonnie and Venec. I've already dropped 2 well-known series over an author refusing to have the characters grow in anyway. But so far loving the series. I am definitely going to check out her other series.
review 2: This is a series that I stumbled onto and one that I am definitely going to follow in the future as well as picking up her back list. I was really impressed at how well TRICKS OF THE TRADE stands on its own even though it is the thir... mored book in the series.I think that what really set this book apart in my mind is the way Ms. Gilman explains the group dynamic of the PUPS as a pack. There are the Big Dogs which as the bosses and then the working team with the alpha dogs and all. The working team is really trained to work together as a pack and it is a dream to see. Ms. Gilman has also done a wonderful job with her characters. Even though it is set as a first person thru Bonnie’s eyes, we really learn all of the characters. And even though Bonnie is definitely the primary in the story, there really aren’t any secondary characters as all of the pack play such an important part in the story.This book had me enthralled from the very first page and I do recommend it to anyone that enjoys urban fantasy. I rate this book a 4.5.***I received this book at no charge from NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. less
