Succubus Blues

Georgina Kincaid Series, Book 1

By: Richelle Mead

Narrated by: Elisabeth Rodgers

When it comes to jobs in hell, being a succubus seems pretty glamorous. A girl can be anything she wants, the wardrobe is killer, and mortal men will do anything just for a touch. Granted, they often pay with their souls, but why get technical?

But Seattle succubus Georgina Kincaid's life is far less exotic. At least there's her day job at a local bookstore - free books; all the white chocolate mochas she can drink; and easy access to best-selling, sexy writer, Seth Mortensen, a.k.a. He Whom She Would Give Anything to Touch but Can't.

But dreaming about Seth will have to wait. Something wicked is at work in Seattle's demon underground. And for once, all of her hot charms and drop-dead one-liners won't help because Georgina's about to discover there are some creatures out there that both heaven and hell want to deny....

Miss Kincaid

Loved the series. Perfect story telling. Great character development. Can’t wait to finish the rest of the series

Really enjoyed

I really liked how this book manages to weave sexuality into the core narrative without falling into traditional genre narratives such as will they won’t they or enemies to lovers

Wonderful

This book had it all. Suspense, danger, romance, and beauty. Also, the narrator seems to have been born for this role. The narration was wonderful.

Different

To be honest, I really haven’t decided if I enjoyed this book or not. It’s definitely not my usual fare. It’s about a succubus that is sexually active but has one she truly loves. The first half of the book deals with her relationships and how her Succubus nature affects them all. At times, I seriously considered to stop listening but there was something in the story that compelled me to continue on. It’s going to be one of those stories that sticks with me. The second part deal with those that surround her and their intent toward good or bad. Surprisingly, based on the nature of the heroine, there’s not a whole lot of erotica. A few brief scenes that are not chapters long. The whole book is a combination of sadness and hope. The mystery that surrounds her is not complicated, I was able to determine the bad guy almost immediately. However there were a few twist and turns. Ms. Rodgers did an excellent job of narration. There was a brief musical intro as she began the narration.

One of my favorite series!

I know we all see and hear these characters differently in our heads but I don't think voice has the right vibe for the story. I enjoyed it nonetheless! :) Onto the next one!
