Speed Reviews- Recent Urban Fantasy

*Please note that 'Speed Reviews' are reserved only for self-purchased books. Books from publishers get full length reviews.

Magic in the Blood- Devon Monk (Book 2)
This barely made the cut, but hints of an intricate future plot tip this book into the four star category.
Blood Lust- Michelle Rowen (Book 2)
This book is good. It could have been a four star- the plot had incredible twists and turns and momentum. However, the book felt rushed in the character and emotional aspect. 

Overall, I would recommend that you read this. I hold hope that future books in this series will increase in strength.

*NOTE*
Because the first book felt so short, this review is actually for the first and second book in this series.
Mind Games- Carolyn Crane (Book 1)
A solid idea, a solid execution...but there is something missing in characterization. Where Packard is concerned, I feel like the problem might be telling, not showing.
