Negative Positive
Title: mixed emotions
Review: (Santa Claws, Monster Love, There's No Such Thing as a Werewolf, A Fiend in Need)This novel consists of multiple stories - all penned by MaryJanice Davidson. Davidson has incorporated some of her story themes and melded them into one world - combining vampires with the werewolves. I enjoyed most of them and I read all of them, but I have to admit distaste for MONSTER LOVE. I won't give away the story, but I found it disturbing and somewhat insulting, which I have never encountered with her work before now. On the flip side, I heartily agree with her non-conformist view of what is attractive about women's bodies and their self-images in SANTA CLAWS. My favorite, however, is A FIEND IN NEED, which brings us all back into the world of Betsy, Queen of the Vampires. Despite my negative experience, I eagerly await more of her work - the positive far outweighs the negative.
Is the review positive or negative?
