review 1: It's an enjoyable book, and I like that she writes her heroines quirky and her heroes have to be masculine and interesting but not drop dead gorgeous. For people that are really into world-building/detail in paranormal, this would probably rate closer to a 5, but I find I'm not that deep of a person so she tended to lose me a bit. I tend to need the romance to be the main part of the story with any paranormal or intricate back-story stuff coming in second. And I've discovered that I'm not a huge fan of dream-walking type scenarios....but she did a fine job writing those parts.
review 2: Ivy Bailey is not quite a vampire hunter; she is more of a vampire watcher. She observes vampires to make sure they are keeping themselves in line. If not, she’ll report the... morem to Chicago’s head vampire. As she is following one particular vampire stalker, she realizes she herself is being stalked – by Vampire Enforcer Christopher Bell. After he captures her and takes her for questioning, they realize more is going on then they thought. There are ritualistic murders, disappearances, and a frightened city. However, both Ivy and Christopher are keeping secrets. Secrets that can affect the outcome of their investigation – and their lives.Personal Demon by Susan Sizemore is the sixth entry into the Laws of the Blood series. The good news is that they don’t have to be read in order. I had no idea it was a series when I jumped into number six and it didn’t affect my reading enjoyment. Overall, Personal Demon is an average, but fun read. The plot was entertaining, but nothing remarkable. I guessed the villain about halfway through. The highlight was probably the relationship between Ivy and Christopher. They are two very unique individuals within their respective worlds and watching them get to figure each other out was quite the adventure. If there is a weakness in the story, it is the chapters told from Jack the Ripper’s point of view. They just didn’t hook me into the story.Personal Demon is, although average, an urban fantasy novel that will likely entertain you. Did I enjoy this book? Yes. Would I recommend it? Yes. Do I think you’ll remember it in six months or rush to pick up the rest of the series? Probably not. The author did leave Ivy and Christopher’s story open ended and I would be curious where that goes, so if I saw a sequel to their story I might read it. If you read the blurb and it sounds like something you know you might like, this book is for you. Overall, I still had fun reading it (and that’s the point, right?), so it earns a rating of 3 out of 5 stars. less
