I’m having trouble writing reviews for a couple of novels and I could use some help. I read Speak of the Devil by Jenna Black and Spider-Touched by Jory Strong during a mood where I didn’t want to be on the computer and spent most of my time reading. These two are the last of five novels I read during that time period and I can’t think of what I want to say about them. Right now, the reviews I have in my head are sounding really generic, short and worse, not interesting. That can’t happen, so I’m looking for some help.
As it stands now, I’m going to have to flip through them again (which doesn’t bother me in the lease. I love these series), but what should I be focusing on? What do you guys want to know? Is there anything I can confirm, deny, clarify, etc?
Speak of the Devil by Jenna Strong
Morgan Kingsley, America’s most successful exorcist, is paying the price for an exorcism gone wrong. The victim’s family is suing the daylights out of her, the Exorcism Board has suspended her, and now she’s living on a diet of ramen noodles and bad coffee. But Morgan has a few good men at her side. One is her current boyfriend, nice-guy legal eagle Brian, who’s suddenly starting to reveal his inner bad boy. The other is Philly cop Adam White, who’s trying to help Morgan find out who sent her a little present—a severed human hand—and why someone seems determined to destroy her.
As her stalker turns more violent, leaving dead bodies in his wake, Morgan turns to the dark side of her life: a group of demons steeped in secrets, sinful eroticism, and otherworldly family feuds, including one sexy beast who shares Morgan’s body—and some X-rated fantasies. Soon Morgan must choose between her friends, her enemies, and her libido: to escape a mad demon determined to destroy her completely.
Spider Touched by Jory Strong
Held prisoner by humans, his angelic memory and power lost because of the sigil-inscribed collar around his neck, Tir dreams of freedom and hungers for vengeance. He’s sworn he’ll never lie with a mortal, but when Araña removes his shackles and helps him escape his captivity, she melts his icy control and leaves him burning with desire. She’s a temptation he can’t resist—an unknowing enemy who might well enslave him more thoroughly than the chains he’s worn for centuries.
Powerful forces have brought them together to serve a greater purpose, but learning the truth of what they are will destroy them—unless their love is strong enough to overcome the dark legacy of a battle that began with the birth of mankind.
Let me know what you guys
I haven’t read any of the books in these series, though I want to.
Since I haven’t read them, I would want to know how they relate to the past books in these series, where they just as good, if not, why? And will you continue reading these series.
