Review: Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith

Synopsis: Quincie Morris has never felt more alone. Her parents are dead, and her hybrid-werewolf first love is threatening to embark on a rite of passage that will separate them forever. Then, as she and her uncle are about to unveil their hot vampire-themed restaurant, a brutal murder leaves them scrambling for a chef. Can Quincie transform their new hire into a culinary Dark Lord before opening night? Can he wow the crowd in his fake fangs, cheap cape, and red contact lenses - or is there more to this earnest face than meets the eye? As human and preternatural forces clash, a deadly love triangle forms, and the line between predator and prey begins to blur. Who-s playing whom? And how long can Quincie play along before she loses everything? TANTALIZE marks Cynthia Leitich Smith-s delicious debut as a preeminent author of dark fantasy.








Review: Reading this book was awesome I didn't want to set it down not even to shower but of course you know I have to. Showering is hygiene and I like to be as clean as possible. Any-who now that you guys all know I like to be a clean person just unorganized sometimes on with the review.


This novel was pulse stopping. I loved it! It's definitely going to be on my favorites of 2012. Quincie is an outstanding lead character I thought. Kieren, the hybrid werewolf lover is mysterious and intriguing. All of the characters had their own jazz to them as do most characters in novels but Cynthia made them realistic in a visual way. Making pictures in your mind about what they looked like, how them acted, what scared them or didn't, if they were normal or a were. Just a very interesting and unpredictable read.


Kept me guessing on every page. Mystery is out of this world and mix that up with a vampire themed restaurant you have yourself an phenomenal book that you just want to sink your teeth into the next book in the series call Eternal!


Seems like I need to get me some wereabouts as to how I can get my claws on this next installment in the blood gurgling, weremetropolis, heart stopping novel Eternal.........
