katikat | Stacia Kane's "Personal Demons", #59

Megan promises listeners to her new radio call-in show that she'll "slay their personal demons," and they believe her. So do the personal demons... although she doesn't know it, Megan is the only human without a demon on her shoulder! Megan and her allies - a demon lover who both protects and seduces her with devilish intensity, a witch with poor social skills, and three cockney guard demons - have to deal not only with the personal demons, but a soul-sucker, ghosts of Megan's past, and a reporter who threatens to destroy Megan's career!

Review: First in the "Megan Chase" series. And I really like Megan. She's so... normal. Yes, she's a psychic, but it doesn't define her. Sometimes, she behaves irrationally, mostly when something makes her angry - and she knows that she's being irrational and she admits it, even if only to herself. When someone hurts her, she doesn't go all "woe is me," she gets pissed because taking revenge is much more productive than feeling sorry for herself.

And then there's Greyson Dante, so strong and pushy - but strangely vulnerable and shy when it comes to things like his eyes glowing red sometimes. And Malleus, Maleficarum and Spud, the cutest demon uncles, really. And Brian and Tera - they would make quite an awesome couple.

I'm curious where the series is headed. I'll definitely read book 2.
