I'm curious to find out more about Jean-Claude and the connection between him and Anita but I don't know what to make of him at the moment and I'm not sure if I'll grow to love or hate him. She cares a lot about her friends and will put herself in harms way to protect them but she does that in spite of her fears rather than because she is fearless. I also liked Anita, she is quite kick ass but there is also a vulnerability to her that makes her seem more real.
There were a lot of things I liked about the book, it was nice to read about old school scary vampires for a change - you don't seem to see as many of those in more recent urban fantasy stories. I'm not sure if it was because my expectations were too high or if it was that I subconsciously don't want to like the series but I didn't feel that Guilty Pleasures lived up to the hype. Having said that a lot of people have told me how fantastic the earlier books are and I've been curious to try them for myself for a while now. In fact, the only reason I own this one is because a friend gave me the first 14 books because they refuse to read any further, not really a glowing recommendation.
I have to admit I was wary about starting the Anita Blake series, it's intimidating starting a series that is already 20 books long! Especially when I've seen so many people say that the later books in the series don't live up to the earlier ones, I've lost count of the number of friends I have who have given up on the books. īut now a serial killer is murdering vampires - and the most powerful bloodsucker in town wants me to find the killer. What I call them isn't repeatable.Įver since the Supreme Court granted the undead equal rights, most people think vampires are just ordinary folks with fangs.
