Review: The Scent of Shadows


THE SCENT OF SHADOW
VICKI PETTERSSON
RATING
4/5 STARS

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK IT'S SOMETHING NEW AND WAS HEROINE WAS SO KICK ASS!

I would have probably given this book 5 stars but the reason I didn't was because I was disappointed that the author choose to base the book in such a awesome location but they rarely mention Vegas other to say it's a great place I would have wished to hear more
about Vegas, and I would have liked to see Joanna AKA Olivia out more then just her house and the save house because practically the entire book she was either at her sisters house/safe house/her fathers Casino they did not mention any of the awesome places in Vegas. Other then the minor problem the book was AWESOME. Joanna is truly one of those characters you either love or hate and I Love her at the beginning of the book I wasn't so sure if I liked Joanna because she just seemed to bitter from her past but as the book progressed her character evolved and by the end other the book she was still the same person but less bitter and more willing to live life at it's fullest. The book also kept me interested because at every turn there seemed to be a surprise and the ending left me guessing and wanting more. I also liked that the author didn't dwell to much on the romance part of the book because I'm tired of reading Urban Fantasy books that dwell to much on the romance parts. It's like hello it's a Urban Fantasy book not a Romance novel, but don't get me wrong I love me a steamy romance novel but I also love to read a good action book.

I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE WHO LOVES A BITCHY/SARCASTIC/MEAN/HOT HEROINE AND IF YOU LIKE A VIRGIN CLEAN HEROINE DON'T READ THIS BOOK.
