Remember, just like she had managed to make him able to see ghosts in Undead and Unemployed. Actually, I’m wondering what would happen if Betsy simply commanded Eric to bear that certain ability what she does. I really felt for Eric, I could understand his fear.

So no threatening conspiracy or coup by him.īetsy and Eric have a relationship crisis, and fight after fight. There was a hint about a serial killer at the beginning of the novel, so I hoped for some excitement, and maybe a connection between the murderer and Betsy, but nope… He is just an ordinary serial killer, with no awareness of neither Betsy nor the vampire society. So, meanwhile Betsy’s lovelorn admirer, the ex-blade-warrior-now-a-biography-writer Jon is writing the not-so-fictional biography of Betsy, Betsy babysits her brother, BabyJon, she also contributes to the new vampire newsletter, and she is planning the first vampire monarch wedding of all time – with her openly reluctant fiancé, Eric Sinclair. The everyday life of Betsy and her housemates just can't keep me interested. The Queen Betsy series is still very entertaining, though sometimes I have to turn back the pages to recall what had happened. What was the point of this epilogue? Why would I want to read any more of this series at all if this is where it's going to end up? It's just not fun any more."See, things started out innocently enough - a visitor, a comment, finding out a new vampire rule - and the next thing I know, I'm up to my tits in undead politics, or attempted revolutions, or dead bodies." I don't get it.Īlso, and this is really just out of left field, future Betsy has her evil sister (who is ruling hell) skin Sinclair so she can turn him into the Book of the Dead and then deliver the book to her past self. Also, she is supposed to be the vampire queen, but we don't see many other vampires in this series. What was the point? And really, really getting tired of her focus on herself, and shoes. Then they travel around in Betsy's timeline so she can be her usual selfish self and interfere everywhere in her own past.

Ok, what the freaking heck? This is all about the really unlikable Betsy traveling down to hell for a vacation with her sister, the antichrist. I really hope that means none of this every happens. From what I understand, the next book is about her waking up in the past, in her old body, right when she dies. This was not fun or even a great addition to the series.
