Liza’s review:
I fell in love with the Chicagoland Vampire series when I read
the very first book. Merit is one of my favorite characters in the Urban
Fantasy genre and I've loved watching her character grow over the course of the
series. Merit has now been a vampire for one year, and she is finally figuring
out her place in the supernatural's world.
I love that we got to spend at least a little bit of time with
so many of my favorite characters in Midnight
Marked. I love that Merit and Mallory are back on track, and totally
cracked up about Mallory worrying she and Catcher might have a lack-luster sex
life now that they are married, especially when she talks about the number to
times per day they are having sex.
As it's become the norm in the Chicagoland Vampires series,
Merit and Ethan and all the vampires in Cadogan House are the ones to step up
to not only solve the crimes that occur between the supernaturals, but keep the
city of Chicago safe. I know Merit is a member of the Red Guard (RG), but I
really thought they had pretty much disbanded since they never really seem to
do anything but stay under the radar. I have to say I pretty much cheered when
Merit met with the RG and gave them a piece of her mind.
I loved the romance in Midnight
Marked so much. The fact that the date night between Merit and Ethan and
Mallory and Catcher is at Wrigley Field for a Cubs game made me super happy. I
love that Ethan knows Merit so well; he knows that is the one place she hasn't
been able to go to since becoming a vampire. I love that even when Merit and
Ethan are fighting with each other, they still have each other's backs against
anyone else.
I honestly didn't realize we only have one more book in the
Chicagoland Vampires series until I saw it posted on another review. While I
hate to see this series end because I love the characters so very much, I also
have trusted Ms. Neill since early on in the series to know the characters and
their direction. I only hope the wrap up in Book 13 gives me everything I've
been waiting for with my favorite characters.
Midnight
Marked is a great addition to the Chicagoland Vampires series. I
seriously couldn't put the book down and I'm already counting down until we get
the epic finale to this series.
