Sign of the Slayer by Sharina Harris (464 pages)
I thoroughly loved the narrative voice! Raven isn’t afraid to speak her mind. She’s confident but still has insecurities and a past of anger issues weighing her down.
I also enjoyed the humor because again Raven has no filter, and the titles of each chapter are very unserious. The vampires and the slaying had my interest by the throat; but no bloodsucking. We’re classy over here. wags finger
Our deuteragonist also had my heart. He was an island boy with a lovely name and just as sad a past as Raven. They were good foils to each other and had good chemistry. It’s a bit of whiplash how Khamari was so dutiful she can’t know about me blah bla, then he was fully pursuing her. But with the flow of the story, it kind of makes sense later.
I crave more Black paranormal, so this was like a gift. I’d definitely read more from this author. Give me book two! Also, shoutout to Rose she was fun. I liked the whole cast of characters.
Once y’all pay writers and actors what they deserve, this better be on the list for a Netflix adaptation. And I’m not playing with y’all! I’m talking expeditiously.
