Summary: Didn't do it for me
Comment: A lifelong fan of the vampire genre, I picked up a copy of SWV recently (lured in against my better judgment by the New York Times best-seller blurb on the cover). I wasn't looking for much, just a diversionary read. What I got--sorry!--was a frothy pink little cringe-fest from improbable start to lame finish. I doubt "Deus ex machina" will ring a bell for too many interested in this book, but...if it does...you've been warned.

Summary: Fantastic Vampire Tale
Comment: I love the Argeneau Vampire series by Lynsay Sands. Single White Vampire is very funny, and full of romance. Definitely worth a read.

Summary: Predictability Bites...
Comment: This book for the record, was not as good as A Quick Bite, but better than Love Bites. I struggled with the notion of giving this book a three star but rejected it, based on the fact that I have given many better books than this a three star. Still this isn't quite as bad as the other books I have given a two star...so 2 1/2 stars, really. Here, we once again re-visit the Argeneau vampire series. This time, grumpy Lucern gets his turn to to find a human chick who can't read his mind to fall in love with and then turn into a vampire. Predictabiltiy bites. Kate is everything a man would want in an eternity mate. She is fiesty, indespendant, and sexy... She is good natured even when dealing with tempermental Lucern. Kate is an editor for the romance novels Luc writes. But really they aren't novels, the are historical novels because they tell what has really happened in his family. Kate is a little dense at times and it takes her WAY too long to figure out that Luc is a vamp. This book is more comedic than Love Bites and there are very funny, well played scenes here. However, in between those funny, well played scenes are a lot of boring filler pages. We never truly grasp what is so special about Kate that in four hundred plus years, she stands out as THE ONE. And we never truly understand why Kate falls for grumpy nosed Lucern. Still, I like this family. I like the comic portions of these books. The sex scenes are pretty boring, and there are tons of repetitive things that happen in each of the first three books. Still, one could pass the time in many worse ways than to read this book. I know that this is a lighthearted series but it could benefit from some more depth to the characters, and some variances in plot elements. Other than that, Ms Sands can write some stellar moments into a book and there are little snippets of this story I probably won't forget easily.
