This third installment in her Honey Badger Chronicles was released on March 31 and I downloaded it the second I got up. Then spent the rest of the day reading it.
I cannot express how much I enjoy her books. How much I laugh and giggle while reading them. To me they are simply fun to read. Which means I’m probably going to go back and read all three. Like immediately.
One other thing I’ve noticed, especially this time, is how much she always surprises me with her heroes and heroines. I always think they’re going to go in one direction personality-wise. And they don’t. It’s not so much that they’re not the same person as they are in other books either. More that when she digs into “their” story aspects come out I’m not expecting at all. Or that I missed before.
Take this one, for instance. The heroine is Max “Kill It Again” MacKilligan. With a name like that, you know she’s bad-ass. And she is the most bad-ass of the three very bad-ass MackKilligan sisters. But then all Laurenston heroines are extreme in that regard, even when they don’t appear to be at first glance.
What I wasn’t expecting is that Max loves to play basketball. And is really good at it. The general physical description of the honey badger shifters in these books is short and stocky but powerfully build. All of them. So basketball prowess is not the first thing that comes to mind.
And there it is and it works so well for the character.
Actually I think I want to reread this one again before starting all over.
