Return to the Hollows

Kim has done an outstanding job bring us back home to Rachel and the hollows. This feels like a new beginning and I loved every moment of it. If you havnt had a chance to read this series and love Urban Fantasy or Alt-history then please give the Hollows a read.

I can't believe I'm giving a book in this series 3 stars?! I absolutely love this series, it remains my all-time favorite series. I was thrilled when I saw Rachel & Co were coming back. But...

It felt like it lost its sparkle. Ivy is getting written out with her own HEA, which good for her but her chemistry with Rach just feels like a break up. Al - my favorite demon EVER - spent so much of the book in seclusion while a new demon was introduced and he did NOTHING for me whatsoever lol. And I spent most of the book worrying about Jenks. He's now the oldest pixie alive and even he feels old. I think I screwed myself over because I found a mix CD from back in the day (2013) and the characters just feel like a far cry from then. And yes, I understand that they've grown and developed but it feels like they are ready to move on. And maybe I should too before Ms. Harrison succeeds in ripping my heart out. I love them all too much!

I really liked the plot of this book but Rachel’s downer mind set bugged me. Not sure what was going on there.

It was really hard to get back into this series after such a long gap between books. The first part of this book kept re-hashing the past books in so much detail, getting completely bogged down in past plots.

Oh how I've missed Rachel, Ivy Jenks, Trent, Al and Bis. It was so nice to go on an adventure with them again.

I can't even begin to explain the satisfaction of having another story with Rachel, Jenks, Ivy, Trent, Bis and the other characters I've come to know and love in The Hollows! I love this series so much, and not only are the characters truly multi faceted, the world building is amazing as always, too.

American Demon is about the aftermath of freeing the demons from the Ever After, and Rachel had a lot on her plate, that's for sure.

This was fun to return to Rachel Mariana Morgan's life, especially when I thought the series was done. I quite enjoyed this and look forward to more of the series.
