REVIEW: Witch Craft by Caitlin Kittredge

JiaBook Reviews / C Reviews / C Reviews CategoryCaitlin Kittredge / demons / female detectives / selkies / shapeshifters / Urban-Fantasy / witchcraft / Witches2 Comments

Dear Ms. Kittredge, I have a very hard time explaining why I keep reading this series.   As I’ve mentioned in the past, the main character, Luna Wilder, can be really off-putting at times.   On the other hand, it’s very nice to see her maturing and evolving over the course of ... more >

REVIEW: Street Magic by Caitlin Kittredge

JiaB Reviews / B Reviews Category / Book ReviewsCaitlin Kittredge / female detectives / ghosts / kidnapping / London / Magic / Urban-Fantasy14 Comments

Dear Ms. Kittredge, I think most readers who’ve heard of you are more familiar with your Luna Wilder series.   While I have my reservations about the titular character of those books, I do think they’re a good way to pass the time.   But I’ll confess: the series I’ve really been ... more >

REVIEW: Second Skin by Caitlin Kittredge

JiaB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book ReviewsCaitlin Kittredge / female detectives / shapeshifters / Urban-Fantasy / Witches1 Comments

Dear Ms. Kittredge, I have an uneasy relationship with the heroine of your Nocturne City novels, Luna Wilder.

Dear Ms. Kittredge, When I read your debut novel, Night Life, I’m afraid I found myself among that group of readers who considered your heroine Luna Wilder abrasive, obnoxious, and borderline stupid.   But even so, the Nocturne City setting stuck with me and while I felt that I might not ... more >

REVIEW: Night Life by Caitlin Kittredge

JiaB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book ReviewsCaitlin Kittredge / demons / female detectives / Serial-Killer / shapeshifters / Witches5 Comments

Dear Ms. Kittredge, I was introduced to your writing by your short story, “Newlydeads”, in My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon. While that story didn’t work as well for me as I’d hoped, I still looked forward to your first novel. Sometimes short stories aren’t the best indicators of good novelists ... more >

REVIEW: My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon edited by P.N. Elrod

JiaB Reviews / B Reviews Category / B+ Reviews / B- Reviews / Book Reviews / C Reviews / C Reviews Category / C+ Reviews / D ReviewsAnthology / Caitlin Kittredge / Katie MacAlister / Kelley-Armstrong / Lilith Saintcrow / marjorie-liu / Paranormal / Rachel Caine / Urban-Fantasy7 Comments

Dear Authors, While many readers dislike anthologies because the good stories are often outnumbered by the bad, I’m not one of them. I love anthologies. They let me sample many different authors at once — old favorites and new-to-mes. And sometimes all it takes is one perfect story to make ... more >
