Living With The Dead: Women Of The Otherworld

The Human Perspective

9 months ago

Of all the Kelley Armstrong, I wasn't sure how I felt about this particular one. All I know for sure is, I cried when Robyn detailed the events leading up to her husband's death. I mean, who wouldn't? What happened was so . . . . pointless, almost ridiculous. Nonetheless, the book is a solid addition to the Armstrong collection, and I did enjoy reading this story.

This newer book of Armstrong's was pretty good. It was another story with Hope Adams, the 1/2 demon supernatural. I thought it dragged on a little bit but it was bearable.

While it took me two tries to get into this novel, once I did, I was addicted. To be honest, I'm not sure what it was that stopped me from reading it the first time. Probably because, during the first few chapters, I was screaming in my head, "DON'T DO THAT, YOU IDIOT!" And of course the main character did. But as I read on, the story got more twisted and interesting. The tapestry woven is indeed complex, and sometimes the ideas within the plot are so convoluted I had to go back and read… + read more

Living Well

This was a nice re-start to Armstrong’s Otherworld series. The tone and rhythm was different without deterring entirely from the rest. In many ways, this was appropriate, because for the first time Armstrong used a human protagonist. Free from sex, the plot amped up into the mystery/thriller aspect. I could have done without the constant chapter headings that told whose perspective we were listening to. (Everything’s in third person, so I’m not sure they were needed at all.)

Excellent

This book was great. You really get to see Hope and Karls relationship grow and evolve from the last book and you get to see Hope grow up. She has to make some tough decisions at the end of the book so it leads into the next book. This book also introduces some new characters. I definite must read for all Kelley Armstrong fans and new ones.

Once again we get to dive into the world of the Kelley Armstrong, and the dive is a perfect 10. This book deals with the mixing of humans and those with otherworldly powers in a fun, exciting and intesnse story that will keep you reading and wanting more. The 'otherworld' series are not to be missed.
