This Side of The Grave (Nighthuntress book 5) - Jeanine Frost

Although it hurts me to admit it, these books are getting boring.

Bones and Kat's story-line should have ended way earlier then now. I feel like Frost is really pushing her luck with having book 6 and 7. Book 5 barely made the cut so not sure how the last 2 are going to fly. I really enjoy reading about the characters and their relationships, but it's just dragging on.

This was the weakest installment so far, it could also be cause I read Mencheres and Spade's stories between book 4 and 5. It's good that she's giving the other character's their own books. I'm really looking forward to Vlad's and hoping Ian gets one. Kat & Bones should have ended on a high! I hope it still does. They're my favorite and they deserve the best goddamn it!

The main thing that this series has going for it is Bone's character. In a literary world infested with Christian Greys, Edward Cullens and their infinite variations, it's wonderful to see a supportive male that trusts in his partner and backs her up rather than over playing the damsel in distress vs Alpha male stereotype crap. This series shines in that regard.
