Meh... Tabitha just didn't grow on me. Neither did Valarius. I guess if opposites attract, they are perfect for each other. She's a self-proclaimed badass who owns a sex shop and acts like an overgrown rebellious teenager. He's Mr Prim and Proper who doesn't even own a pair of jeans. See? Perfect for each other.

Their romance starts with her stabbing him because she's decided she's a vampire hunter and he just happened to come along while she was stabbing vampires. She realizes he is a Dark Hunter and takes him home to nurse him back to health, where Ash finds him.

"Relax," Acheron said with a yawn. "You're in good hands. Tabby won't hurt you."

"She stabbed me!"

"Damn," Ash said. "I told her not to stab any more Hunters. I hate it when she does that.....You're the third Dark Hunter she's nailed so far. She kind of gets a little carried away sometimes."



actually, it's Tabby, but that works too...

As Tabitha gets to know Valarius, she starts to feel sorry for him because nobody likes him. He's a Roman in a sea of Greeks.


Sheesh, your people crucify a few people and suddenly you're the bad guy!

So, Tabitha realizes that nobody likes Valarius and becomes his champion. She freaks out on Otto for calling him Count Penicula, and yet she got mad at Valarius for not wanting to eat beefaroni out of a can and served him penis-shaped pasta as revenge.


Shut up and eat your penises!

Their love story was boring and stupid. It's just impossible to care about two unlikable people.


I do not like them Sam I am.

But, I admit that I liked Valarius more than Stabby Tabby. He at least had a reason for being a boring fuck. She had no excuse for never maturing past the age of her shoe size.

The only saving part of this book was all of the glimpses into Acheron. I can't wait for his story. Also, the Nick thing. That was pretty crazy.

All in all, a snooze-fest...

Monty Cupcake ☠ Queen of Bloodshed ☠ Hah, Stabby Tabby. You're right, Valerius is boring, but that's miles better than annoying, like Tabitha. And didn't it totally like make tons of sense she was fluent in Italian, Latin, and had a masters in ancient cultures? Ugh. That whole kitchen scene, the Latin, & the pasta.

Nick gets his own spin-off, but it's a prequel spin-off. The Chronicles of Nick are set when he's a teenager and about meeting Kyrian and working for him. It's YA. And yes, he's basically (view spoiler)


Jilly Yeah, the Latin thing is definitely not believable. We studied it for school and since it is a dead language there are actually disagreements on the pronunciation. So, if someone from ancient times came back and spoke it, I doubt even someone who knows Latin pretty well would be able to converse with them so easily.

I don't know if I'll read Nick's spin-off...maybe later. (view spoiler)
