Book #28

"Deathwish" by Rob Thurman

My favorite book in the "Cal Leandros" series so far. Not only was the plot really intriguing, I also loved that the book wasn't told just from Cal's POV, but also from Niko's. I hope the author sticks with it, that she continues writing the book from both the brothers' POV, it's much more interesting, especially in situations where Cal turns Auphe raving mad.

There were so many things that I loved about this book, first and foremost the brotherly love between Cal and Niko, their co-dependency and other "issues". Another thing was Robin: first he decided to keep the mummified cat, then he got together with Ishiah - I hope these two stick together, they are rocking awesome as a couple (their angry sex was hilarious as was Cal's reaction).

One thing that I didn't like was Georgina. She really doesn't appeal to me as a character. I get why she doesn't want to use her gift but as Cal said: Where's the point where she draws the line, how does she decide what to reveal and what not? She annoys me very, very much and I honestly don't understand what Cal sees in her. I was so happy when Niko finally called her on her cowardly BS.
