Book Review: Bite Me (Shadow Guild: Vampire Bride #1)

Bite Me (Shadow Guild: Vampire Bride #1) 

Bite Me

Linsey Hall

Overall: 2/5

Plot and themes: 2/5

Characters: 1/5

Writing style: 1/5

Attention-grabbing: 1/5

Bite Me is in the same world as a lot of other books by Linsey Hall and Veronica Douglas, where there's a magical part of the world and a non-magical part. Mac is part of the magical side, she works at a bar that is a gateway to this magical side and she takes great pride in being able to defend herself from all sorts of the scum that come in. When an all-powerful vampire shows up demanding that she help him as penance for locking him up five years ago, she doesn't really have a choice in the matter. 

This book was like incredibly direct. All the plot elements were spoon-fed to us in the most glaringly obvious fanfiction-type way. I didn't like it all that much at all and I thought it could've been done a lot better. I just read Veronica Douglas's most recent addition to the universe and I thought that it was pretty good so I was looking forward to this one, but it was just too much for me. 

I don't know, I don't have a lot of positive things to say about this. It's not difficult to keep up with the plot so even if you lose focus halfway through it'll be easy to jump back in? Not much of a romance or a thriller and kind of disappointing on all fronts.
