The Turn: The Hollows Begins with Death by Kim Harrison

3.0

I got this book as a Goodreads first reads. I had never read any of The Hollows books; nor had I actually heard of the series. I entered this giveaway because the premise seemed interesting. I was pleasantly surprised about this book. While the first half was boring a shit, seriously, I almost gave up on the book a few times. The main character Trisk was powerful but annoying. Wanting to user her knowledge as her tools to rise and prove men wrong in the time of the powerful man and the housewife woman. But then even when she knew that Kal was using her still slept with him. It's like REALLY? You're going to use the excuse of 'free love' of the 60s.

Hrm, well that's not going to turn out well. And it doesn't, which is still a crappy way to end the book. After all this fighting and battling she gets tied to him? What? Half the time the book forgot she was pregnant, I mean for Elves and high risk pregnancy doing all this running exploding and basically forgetting to eat or even that she was pregnant for it to get thrown back out there in the last five pages as a 'ah ha' moment.

But, yeah, it was interesting. I might try to read the series? Possibly,I mean this was an okay stand alone. It didn't really leap into the series, at least that I can tell from reviews of the series and the books.
