Vampire Vocab

I must commemorate this book as my first to review that isn’t Fantasy. It’s…Historical Romance!! (Though it does have paranormal aspects, like hypnotists and magic crystal workers, but all I have in my defense is that it has nothing STRICTLY inhuman.)

The Third Circle by Amanda Quick stars Leona, a crystal worker who meets a powerful hypnotist who has the same goal as her: to retrieve a powerful crystal called the Aurora Stone. After saving Thaddeus from certain death, they join forces to protect the stolen stone and discover a murderer called the Midnight Monster. However, Leona’s house is broken into, and they realize too late that what they’re dealing with is more dangerous than it seems…

I would give this book a 6.5. It was interesting, but the rantings about true love were like marzipan: too sweet, saccherine, and they just sat like a rock in my stomach, not doing anything for me. (Had you noticed all the food references when I’m talking about Books? Hmmm…)
