The second in the Vampire Huntress series (the first was “Minion”). I felt very much the same about this book as I did about the first – interesting story, enough to make me keep reading, but I find the dialogue distracting and difficult to read (excessive slang, IMO). I really think the author would have been better off using far fewer colloquialisms – she could have still gotten the flavour across with just a few words here and there, without making it difficult to wade through. Still, I’m going to see about getting the third one from the library (this was a library book, as well). 7/10
