Review: Wildfire Gospel (Santeria Habitat #3) by Kenya Wright



I am so freakin' excited to be posting this review. I know I am excited all the time when it comes to reviews...but this one...
This book is one that I have been waiting for and I lucked out in getting to edit it! Dream come true, for real. 
SO here is the cover and a bit about the book...

17726138LANORE'S TO-DO LIST
#1- Set Dante on fire until he’s nothing but smoke and ash.

#2- Find Nona and Mother Earth, tie them to a tree, and create the biggest bonfire Santeria has ever seen.

#3- Find out if there is anybody higher in Mother Earth's psychotic chain of command.

#4- Burn anybody else to a crisp if they get in my fucking way.

Lanore destroys her old beliefs of nonviolence. Flames of revenge now fuel her movements forward. Too many of her loved ones have died, and she's done shedding tears. Sadly, she can't boil Dante's blood just yet. He has the resources to help her and Zulu. Discovering Mother Earth's whereabouts is proving more difficult than expected. She's not what they thought she was. She's something more.

Meanwhile, Lanore's father is missing. Normally, that wouldn't trigger stress, but whispers are spreading around the habitat like a wildfire. A Demon with feline eyes and fire-spotted cheetah skin appeared at the Masquerade Ball right after MeShack was killed. Lanore hopes her father will have some answers.

Is this Demon only a coincidence? Is Lanore just grasping at a last bit of hope that somehow MeShack is alive, or should she face the truth of his death.





My Review:

Since this book isn't out yet I won't be posting any spoilers (even though I freakin' want to.) I've decided that instead of writing a full on review, I'm going to let the gifs speak for me.

This is how I felt at the end of the last book.


How I felt reading Wildfire Gospel.

My overall final reaction:


Kenya Wright is an evil mastermind. This book is EVERYTHING I wanted it to be, and at the same time it was nothing I expected. 
So go and read it...if not, I will get Lanore to burn you. ;)

Rating: 
FIVE AWESOME STARS!

Review: On Demon Wings by Karina Halle



About the book:

When the life you wanted has crumbled beneath your fingers, there’s nothing left to do but pick up the pieces and soldier on. You’ve done this before.
On Demon Wings (Experiment in Terror, #5)
But what happens when you no longer feel like yourself anymore? When fires spontaneously start-up around you, when you hear growling coming from underneath your bed, and you no longer recognize your face in the mirror. What happens then?

Ghost-hunter Perry Palomino doesn’t have much time to find out. Now, the evil she used to hunt is a lot closer to home. It’s inside of her, taking over her life bit-by-terrifying bit, and there’s only one person who can help her.

If part of her doesn’t kill him first.




My Review:

It's no secret that I have been reading the Experiment in Terror series by Karina Halle and absolutely loving them and I feel no differently about this book. I have to admit that it is extremely different from the other books. If I thought the other books were dark than this one was born in the pits of hell. 
(And I mean that in a good way, really.)

The story-line before now was more of a fun and rather innocent journey. Perry and Dex expanded their relationship through their YouTube ghost hunter show called Experiment in Terror. But all innocence died with the ending of Lying Season (EIT #4). Perry's character has evolved like no other character I have ever read. The reader gets to see Perry at the lowest point in her life and gets to experience the fright of the things that are going on around her. Perry questions her sanity and Halle does a fabulous job of putting the reader in Perry's shoes. 

I was questioning my own sanity while I read this book. (I know, I should have questioned it long before now, lol). 
Of course questioning my lucidity isn't the only thing this book invoked. I was absolutely shit-my-pants terrified for the ENTIRE book.

I'm freaking serious. I actually made this exact face and ran from my kindle into a bunch of coats more than once while reading this book. 

As an overall look at the book--I loved it. Granted it didn't have enough Dex in it, but I understand why. The things that happen in this book are MAJOR, people. MAJOR! I am so excited to read Old Blood (EIT #5.5) which is Pippa's story. In fact I think I will start it tonight. 

I give On Demon Wings FIVE stars! 

I purchased this on Amazon. :)

Review: Incubus Hunter By Kenya Wright

Helllllllooooooo! It's review day! (Okay admittedly, it's not really review day because I am terribly inconsistent, lol) But it is a day, Thursday, to be more specific AND I am posting a review. Woohoo! Are you excited yet? Because you should be. The book I am reviewing is HOT. Now I'm not talking warm, like sitting next to a fire. I'm talking about swallowing a sparkler hot. 


Seriously. 

Before I say more here is the cover and blurb. 



Whispers swirl throughout the underworld of Carmen, the fanged elf with the violet eyes. They say she hunts incubus demons, not for money, but to clear a debt with a powerful wizard.

But time is winding down. Carmen has five days to clear the balance or she loses her daughter. Desperation forces her to go after Blaze. He’s worth two million dollars dead or alive.

The hunt begins. She spots him and sets a seductive trap. It’s just business as usual—until she ends up capturing so much more.



My Review:
It's no secret that I am a fan of Kenya Wright. Not a drooling fan girl kind of fan (most of the time), but I do love her writing. Incubus Hunter did not disappoint. 
Carmen is a sexy fanged (yes that's right this girl has fangs!) elf who is hunting an Incubus to get enough money to pay off her missing husband's debt. Only she doesn't plan on finding herself seduced by the ULTRA HOT Blaze. And ladies it is no joke when I say he is SUPER HOT. Woo wee. *fans self* 
The adventure and romance is exciting and HOT, wait...did I already mention that?
Anywho, this is a great read and I definitely recommend it. Can't wait for the next in the series. 
I give Incubus Hunter FIVE stars.

P.S. This book is FREE on Amazon. Go download it. You won't regret it!
