Shift (Shifters, #5)
by
So, I gave the previous book, Prey 5 stars, but have dropped this one down to 4. There's one reason for this: the bloody love triangle. It's ridiculous and I know the whole thing will play out till the last book and yet I know who she will chose, I mean really it's no contest. Even if you prefer the underdog (ha or cat!) you still know exactly who Faythe will pick. And it bugs me that it's being dragged out hurting everyone more. I really detest love triangles.
But, now that I have gotten my cryptic (I didn't want to give spoilers) whinge out the way, lets move on to the glowing 4 stars I did give Shift. All 4 of which are because I love the fast pace and story and the addition of the Thunderbirds made the whole thing more exciting.
I am dying to see how things turn out, and I another aspect of this series I love is just how much I hate the bad guy, Malone. It isn't often that the bad guy evokes this kind of deep seated resentment in me, but Vincent has out done herself and really created a character you can't help but despise. It's a strange thing to enjoy about a book, but I get so sick of bleh baddies, so having someone like Malone, really made me back Faythe and co more, I really need to see that guy suffer.
Another good book, despite my whinge and I both look forward and dread reading the last book in the series; it will mean it really is over!
