Petshop of Horrors

This book is humorous, mysterious, and will keep you hooked until the very last page. It's a fantastic story that, once you start, you won't want to put down until you reach the end. LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

As I'm reading Book 2 and at the third section, it seems to me that the stories of Count D are becoming more predictable... red herrings appear in almost every story. I suppose it is good for younger readers (as I read the first story when I was still in high school), but I'm not sure if I'm losing interest or if my instinct for the "element of surprise" is rising. Hmmm, I shall get back as I continue my journey with Count D.

Continuing with my reading of Count D, I have begun to appreciate the 3rd novel... perhaps the author was simply rushed in the 2nd volume, attempting to fit it in with the holiday season. Perhaps she/he simply evolved into a more astute author—who knows? I simply appreciate the 3rd installment much more than the 2nd, with its twists and unexpected turns. I'm merely halfway there, but I see the promising development into a deeper series.
