First of all, could the print get any bigger or have any wider spacing in this book? Probably, but if I'd dwelt on that, I'd've not gotten past page two. (However, I later was glad for the for it, since I got through the book quicker.)

I was quickly irritated when I realized Davidson must have run out of ideas for writing this book, because not only was it written from Betsy's point of view, but we now have to read one from Marc's. The journal approach was lame, to say the least.

Betsy's character continues to try to act smart, but is ever the dim-witted ditz. A small example is when she tends to complain about emails from Marc in that she hates his use of acronyms, lack of punctuation and all-around poor grammar. Why are we wasting our time with this? Repeatedly?

It seems like in the past couple of years my favorite series in the humorous chick-lit genre have gone to crap because the author's obviously running out of juice when it comes to a plot. Unfortunately, it doesn't stop them from trying to bleed their fans dry in the pocketbook. (pun intended)

After this stinker, I'll be using PBS credits to get books by this author and saving my money for books with more depth by authors who still know how to write.

Undead and Unwelcome Queen Betsy Book 8 MaryJanice Davidson 9780425227732 Books Reviews

I assume MJD was trying to make Undead and Unwelcome a stand alone book by catching new readers up on everything from past books but what about her loyal readers who have followed the whole series?? It's a series, we do not need a complete background/back stories of the many characters. We want a new story from cover to cover.

I really enjoyed the first 7 books in this series. I read them one right after another in the past week and I thought they flowed well and I didn't get tired of them. Until this one! It was very annoying to get a paragraph here and there of the new story and then pages of rehashing stuff from the first books.

Although I enjoyed what new parts to the story that there were, I am still sorry I spent good money on what boiled down to nothing more than a novella. Definitely a book to get from the library. Then you can speed read, or just skip, all the repetitive stuff and just enjoy the little bit of new storyline that there was.
Betsy Taylor, the Queen of the vampires, is getting married to her wonderful Eric Sinclair. But all is not coming up roses.

There's the issue of the dress, since white doesn't exactly suit a vampire's coloring, her best friend is battling cancer and Sinclair is less than thrilled about helping with the wedding plans.

And then, things go really bad. Betsy's father and stepmother are killed in an accident, Sinclair disappears, as do several of her friends, and Betsy is left to plan the wedding by herself, and wonder where everyone is. Add in some visiting werewolves who are looking for a missing pack member and you've got a wedding that is to die for.

Despite the turmoil in the book, Undead and Uneasy was an interesting and entertaining read. I've always liked Betsy and the way she deals with things. This volume of the series allows her to grow and shows that, while she's a relatively young vampire, she's the queen, and not to be messed with.

Lovers of the Undead series will enjoy this latest installment as much as I did. Seeing Betsy come to grips with things was enlightening and entertaining. My only complaint would be that the yummy Sinclair wasn't around enough. Undead and Uneasy is a great addition to the Betsy series.

I really hope you have read the rest of the trilogy because it is probably not going to make much sense without it. A month before the first one came out, my ex made fun of my supernatural romance reading and would tell others I read anything from vamps to wolves ans even mermaids. At this time I said I do not read any mermaids until M.J.D. came out with the first Fred novel and quickly added a very special mermaid to my bookshelf.
Love the characters, even though I was really ticked off with Thomas in book two, now that things were explained and wrapped up in a tidy bow I'm happy again. I always hope her books will be longer, but once I read her rapier whit I know I will be breaking out my wallet to pay for the next, probably before the release date.
I loved this series early on for Betsey, you just had to love her cluelessness, her obsession with shoes, her concern with nothing outside of her immediate world and how things just seemed to to work out desipite her best intentions. The writing was snappy but simple, and then we hit the seventh book and things just started going downhill.

I've enjoyed reading about the Wyndham werewolves as well, and the plot seemed relatively simple for this book Antonia died at the end of Undead and Unappreciated. Betsy, Sinclair and Jessica go visit the Wyndham wolves to return the her body. From the minute they arrive the Wolves are hostile to them because they feel that Betsey is responsible for the death of their wolf. Betsy is upset that she is unfairly blamed for Antonia's death when the Pack never accepted Antonia in the first place and "drove her" out of Cape Cod.

Fights break out and several sub-storys are going on; Babyjon seems to have some weird powers that never really get clarified and are really kind of boring. Laura seems to be sliding down a slippery slope and flipping her lid and Mark can't seem to write an email in full english. Laura disconnects their phones but no one seems all that concerned that the phones don't work (hello???). Somehow their email works though.

Also not sure why they insist on the hardcover format all of a sudden, we were perfectly content with paperback, LOL. The story lines certainly don't justify hardcover prices. Sigh. Think I'll be getting teh next book from the library.
