Kitty and the Midnight Hour

Kitty and The Midnight Hour took me on a rollercoaster of emotions, first I hated it, then I just adored it. I was drawn to the book originally because I read a short story from www.tor.com free short story "Kitty's Zombie New Year." I found the story so appealing and the character of Kitty to be incredibly intriguing.

The same could not be said for the Kitty the authors introduces the reader to at the beginning of the book. She is a weak and ineffective character. But I stuck with the novel, because I remembered the Kitty I read in that short story. I'm so glad I did. This first novel is the birth of the strong and wonderful character she becomes.

This novel can only be called a "lite and fluffy" novel. Think Charlaine Harris. Sometimes that's all you need; good characters, a light and easy to follow plot, and something that only takes a couple days to finish.

I'm really looking forward to a long and interesting series of books from Carrie Vaughn, and more adventures for Kitty.
