Spirits, Stilettos,
and a Silver Bustier
-Deanna Chase
First off, I love the title and it was what made me decide
to read the book. I have read 1 ½ of the
Jade series which this book is an offshoot of and while those books were well
written they just didn’t snag me and bring me in all of the way. I only bring this up so you can rest assured
that you do not need to have read the other series before reading this
one. I had no issue knowing what was
going on. There are definite hints that
certain characters have a history together but that just made me want to maybe
give the Jade series a second chance.
Pyper sounds similar to myself in her attitude, demeanor and
clothing choices that I wonder if she may be my long lost twin. (lol) I found Julius interesting, but then, who
wouldn’t find a ghost who could also appears human uninteresting.
Did not see the twist
coming. Even though the story was
mostly wrapped up, with only 15% of the book to go, I in no way saw the twist
coming. Love it! Most authors and stories just march on in an
expected order and I usually see twist coming a ways off but not this time. The twist added so much more depth and detail
to the story that I cannot wait to read the next book in the Pyper series.
Deanna Chase is a creative writer who takes the time to form
her characters and their world. You will
not find grammar, sentence, ‘verbiage’ or similar errors within her books. The same can be said with the editing and
formatting for those of you that maybe purchasing this book for your Kindle
(like I did). For me there is nothing
worse than having to stop reading for either a grammar type error or a
formatting error, like giant spaces between words. If this is something that bothers you, too,
then rest assured you will never have this issue with a book by Deanna
Chase. You should also check out her
Jade and her Crescent City Fae series.
