PJVs QUICKIE POV: More of a Who-Done-It Mystery than Armstrong's usual UF leaning towards, PNR, Waking the Witch (Women of the Otherworld, Book 11)
REVIEW: Savannah Levine is all grown up and ready to take on her first solo case. She's been dying to take a stab at it, but Paige, Lucas and Adam have been holding her back. With Paige and Lucas on a much needed vacation and Adam participating in a conference, their absence just might land Savannah her first gig, courtesy of Jesse a friend of Lucas' and a fellow PI.
The case takes her to the depressed town of Columbus, Washington, investigating the death of three women, shot to death and displayed in what would seem like a ritualistic murder. Savannah's goal: find the killer. Things get a bit trickier though as more dead bodies start showing up and the prime suspect and his wife try to intimidate her through brute force and a little surprise magic of their own.
Following in the 10th installments footsteps {Frostbitten} Waking the Witch
Hard-hitting and snarky, Savannah as a character did deliver with her prickly personality and reckless behavior. Yet, overall there was a bit of disappointment with her, some of which might hold a spoiler or two, so I will try and keep it light. For one, Savannah has always been an enigma to me, the product of some really sketchy parents and then the unlikely victim in a few instances, I do believe Savannah should be a little more twisted than how she is turning out. MHO. Yes, she doesn't obey all the rules, but I think I would believe a little emotional fallout with her, than what happens in Waking the Witch
RECOMMENDATIONS: It is recommended that you read a few of the Otherworld series before you read Waking the Witch (Women of the Otherworld, Book 11)

just read the quickie pov, as I haven't read any of the other books yet. Just got the first one on my kindle, though, and now I'm excited! Sounds like it could be good!
Thanks for the great review Rach, I love how objective you are! :-) I LOVE the WoTO series, but even as a die hard fan I admit that in the 11 books there were a few novels which weren't really up to the level KA set (I wasn't that impressed with Broken). Nonetheless, I can't wait to read Waking the Witch, but you know what I just saw on the Book Depo's website? That the planned release date for WtW is summer 2011?! WTF?! I don't understand..
Great review. But I'm not too sure of getting this book. Maybe later
I really need to read this series! Fab review! :)
I JUST FOUND YOU AND I LOVE BOOKS
I read this between my fingers, with my hands over my face, as I was afraid of spoilers lol.
Great review! I'm very much looking forward to this one. I must admit, I'm very curious as to how Savannah comes across in this book.
Since I love her YA I should read these! Thanks for the review!

I did enjoy this book. I found it nice to jump into the series here, as I have not read any of the series...yet. ;) I will be working on correcting that little situation though.
