Buyer beware. This is not a story, it's a bridge. A simple short fiction piece with very little plot and no real movement of the overall story arc.I own all of her books--short stories, novels, and the "character development" vignettes like this one. Had I known this was going to be bridge to a new series spinoff with no real plot, unanswered questions ("naming names..."), way too much internal dialogue and way too little action, I would have passed.This is the second time she's published something that is a short fiction bridge piece masquerading as a short story and pretended that it's an actual story. As a reader, my trust in her is a little thin.
It's a quick, six chapter story of Ophelia dealing with her punishment as a student in college. Her boyfriend, Jamie is featured, so is Ben and three new female leads, one of which ends up being a star of an upcoming book or yet another short novella. This is a tiny, tiny read and it leaves much to be desired. Like, there are setups of "huh something's going on" but we never get a resolution because it's just a short story. Maybe those questions will be answered in book 9, or yet another short story.
Still one of my favorites. I love Molly Harper and this series, from Jane to Half-Moon to the weres of Alaska, Molly can do no wrong in my opinion. She always makes me laugh out loud. I started reading another paranormal series and I have to commend Molly for keeping it cleaner than the rest. I hate when writers feel they have to swear to tell or portray a feeling. Molly does not. She actually uses creative words. Go figure a writer who writes!
OK, first let's be clear this is a set up for Molly's next full length book. That being said I loved finding out more about Ophelia and Jamie and how she is adapting to a world with communal showers. You see a side of Ophelia that one only vaguely suspected she had (and if you did suspect it you kept your mouth shut for fear of having your throat ripped out).Can't wait for the next one
This one is for the fans. This is a short peak into the mind of a 400 year old vampire, Ophelia, who has been removed from her position of authority and is being forced to attend college with *gasp* humans. The only upside she can see is that she will be closer to her young beau, recently turned vampire Jamie. As with the rest of the books in this series there are plenty of laughs and yes an opossum. The supporting cast in this story is fun and I’d love to see more of them in the future.
I thought it was a full book but I must agree it is a short.It do's flesh out more of Ophelia /Jamie relationship. I just wish it had more of it, for blood mates being apart drove every one else nuts in the series with them it rather cool effect.I do like the interaction with Ophelia and Sister as brief as it..I just gotta love Pocket Vamp. She's a trip.I think what alot of reviews missed was Ophelia growth as person and Vamp . Finding out new things about one shelf at her age is impressive !If you like the series this a well thought out evolution of charaters and nice lite summer read.
Why oh why are you tormenting me? I keep getting sucked in (as is soooooo delightfully easy to do) to my latest Molly Harper/Half Moon Hollow story but they have been short ones. Goes to show, her stories are like chocolate kisses. The short stories just make you want to have the whole bag. Ophelia's story of her first instance of college life is funny & quirky. Only she would end up with a pretentious Goth roommate. : -) She has to not only learn the ins and outs of classes which barely scratch the surface of her own history but the social pecking order every freshman endures.
i can always count on this series for a quick, light-hearted read and this book was no exception. No terror, no killing off of characters that I have come to care about. i normally read suspense and mystery but I get each each new release in this series for a nice change of pace.
