Harper Blaine died and came back and all she got were these crummy nebulous powers

July 31, 2014 by Malin Leave a Comment

After private investigator Harper Blaine wakes up in the hospital after apparently being legally dead for two minutes, she thinks she must be having hallucinations. Her world seems to get blurry, with grey mist, strange creatures and scary monsters more and more frequently. She is told to consult a university professor and his wife, who tell her that she’s a Greywalker now. There is a nebulous dimension close to ours, between the human world and the after life, and those like Harper, who have been […]

Twilight for Adults

May 31, 2014 by genericwhitegirl 2 Comments

“If there really were vampires, what would they do for a living?” That is a question that this book became the unexpected answer to, according to the author on her blog. As for me, although I’ve read that Harkness hasn’t read the popular YA series, I’d dare say this book could be considered a Twilight for adults. Compliment? Or criticism? You decide. But at its simplest, there are vampires, witches, and daemons. (If you’re not sure what a daemon is…think borderline insane, ADHD, wildly creative […]

Karrin Murphy (she got demoted after helping Harry out in the last book) to look into a series of mysterious deaths.

The start of the coolest witch in Discworld

January 5, 2014 by MyySharona 2 Comments

I only started reading the Discworld series a few years ago. I was up late at night, trying to think of things to buy for my new Kindle, and faced with the problem I always have when shopping for entertainment: What in the hell am I supposed to buy?
