Darkness, Take My Hand (Kenzie & Gennaro, #2)
by
I don't know what to say, except, maybe...
Now this is a read, motherfuckers. And...
Well, except read A Drink Before the War first because the idea of anyone reading series books out of order not only gives me an anxiety attack but it's just wrong and should be punished with jail time. Or a nice spork in the eye.
Anyway, I don't often get that ohmigawdIhavetodonothingbutreaduntilIfindoutwhathaaaapeeeens feeling, but I got it here. It's such a nice feeling. Makes me so happy to be a reader.
Love the characters, especially Angie who isn't just another chick that needs saving or sexualizing, and Bubba, my favorite psychopath.
Oh, and the serial killer was properly freaky. *shivers*
Thanks to my local library I've already got the third ebook, Sacred, and I didn't even have to put pants on to do it. Damn, I love the library.

These books are book crack! I just got the third one too. They say the fourth one is even better. I may not survive.

Total crack! You mean Gone, Baby, Gone? Have you seen that movie? It's well done but now that Ive read the first 2 books it bugs me that Angie's role was downgraded to "The Girlfriend."And you're right about Phil--I was hating Lehane for making me sympathize with him.
Yes, that is the one. I haven't seen the movie. I can't see Angie as just "the girlfriend" she would kick somebody's butt.Phil!! (view spoiler)
I think Lehane might be an evil genius
I know! When I finished the book I was still a little freaked over the serial killer but overall I just had this bittersweet feeling in my chest. I keep seeing Phil, Angie and Patrick as kids, their tennis shoes slapping against the pavement as they run, laughing. *sniff* Fucking Lehane.

I may be a sicko because I can't wait for the others in this series. I'm trying to go slow so that they last awhile...trying.
Yeah, I was thinking I'd wait a week to read Sacred. Or a few days. Maybe this afternoon. Whatever.
Thanks for this review, Rosa! I think I will start this series. I've been in a romance reading slump and I used to love mystery/thrillers. :)

Yay!! I'm so glad to hear Kenzie and Gennaro are a hit! Bubba is a freakin legend!!!
Big hit! And yeah, I wouldn't want to spend any quality time with Bubba, but as a book psycho I adore him.
By the end of the series I'm sure you won't want to spend time with anyone but Bubba lol
