Books by Christine Warren
I love gargoyles. I spent quite a bit of time babysitting in the mid- to late-nineties, and was introduced to the Gargoyles cartoon by a 4-year-old boy. I promptly fell in love with the show, the characters, and the romance of it all (and there is definitely romance in there, whether or not that 4-y ...
Narrated by Kate Reading Can a beloved narrator turn a bad book into a good listen? In this case, no. Blythe reviewed the print version for this entry into the Others series at AAR and gave it a D+, liking the fae aspects, but not much else. I should have paid more attention to her review before vo ...

The Demon You Know is the third entry into Christine Warren’s The Others series. The first two were hits for me but this one? Well, there are some hilarious moments as well as a lot of fun scenes featuring the rest of the cast. But the heroine, Abby Baker, is the queen ...

I’d describe Wolf at the Door as a big roasted marshmallow. There’s nothing to really sink your teeth into – just some fluff and some heat. If I were reading this book I would have been bored more than once but listening is another story. Kate Reading is a wonderful ...
Oh goody. Another series to glom. Josie Barrett grew up in Stone Creek, leaving only to attend veterinary school before coming back to take over her father’s vet practice. So she’s well-acquainted with the fact that 70% of the Stone Creek population isn’t human, but is co ...

Big Bad Wolf is a book that I could best sum up as meh. It’s got a lot of sex and fighting in it, but the heroine, Missy Roper is quite a pale and meek character. I guess when you end up as the Mate to an alpha Lupine male, you can’t be too feisty or you might end up as lunch. ...
I know I’m getting cranky, but, gee, would it be too much to ask to actually expect a flippin’ story in a romance novel? I mean, how many 50-page sex scenes can you take? This one is yet another in Christine Warren’s The Others series featuring (let me know if you’ve h ...
A couple of years ago I read, and loved, Christine Warren's She's No Faerie Princess. After finishing her latest, however, I have a strong contender for one slot in my ballot for AAR's 2008 Annual Reader's Poll. Unfortunately, that slot is Most Disappointing read. This latest entry in The Others se ...
This is one of those books that almost hit the wall more than a few times. The heroine behaves badly. The hero behaves badly. And, to make matters worse, much of the action involves characters who don’t even merit the slightest development since I already supposedly know and love them from prev ...
While The Demon You Know had some plot problems, it moved along quickly and ended up as a mostly enjoyable read. I haven’t read all the books in this series, but the author does a decent job of explaining the characters and there isn’t much world building to catch up on.
Abby Baker is an aver ...
