Ok. Let me begin with the negative stuff because I really want to be done with it asap and then go on about how amazing this book was.We get such an awesome plot and characters, would it be too much to ask for some consistency in the world building too? At first, vampires needed an invitation to enter the Glass House. I get that. Then, the humans needed an invitation instead. I get that too. Now everybody’s strolling in and out like nobody’s business and it’s driving me nuts!Also, I know that wr...

4 Not All Parties Are Fun StarsAfter having to fight for their lives with crazy vampires and even crazier anti-vampire fanatics nothing should be able to scare our heroes anymore, until a strange vampire walks through their door. A vampire so bad that even the worst vampires in Morganville seem to be afraid of, one who claims to be Amelie's father. Who knew the Ice Queen actually had family that was even scarier than her?The vampire isn't alone. He has with him 2 extra vampires way too dangerous...

"Will you swear?" And Myrnin said, shockingly "I will." And he proceeded to, a string of swear words that made Claire blink. He ended with, '-frothy fool-born apple-john! Cheater of vandals and defiler of dead dogs!" and did another twirl and a bow.Well Feast of Fools, definitely isn't a filler book. Although slow in the middle, it was probably the best one yet! Do these just keep getting better? Hmm...interesting.I loved every minute of this one. I think it's safe to say I love Myrnin more now,...

As these books continue, I find I am less and less concerned with what will happen to Morganville and its' inhabitants and more concerned with when Shane is going to break and finally "do" Claire. Not that I condone that sort of thing, but it's a book and seriously, there is only so much tension you can build in a book before it starts to get repetitive. So, my unauthorized and likely, unwanted, opinion is, let it happen or kill Shane off. Finally, the other beef I have is that the reader is lef...

I try to express only my most honest opinion in a spoiler free way. If you feel anything in my review is a spoiler and is not already hidden in spoiler brackets please let me know. Thank you.This book has to be the most edge-of-your-seat, nail biting, suspenseful books of them yet. Even when everything was as a supposed calm, you just knew that crazy stuff was right around the corner. I love Claire. She never does anything I expect her too. She's this small, helpless, but smart teenage girl, but...

This was definitely the most exciting installment thus far. A new threat comes to Morganville. An outside threat. Enemies become allies as the town bands together to protect itself. We get more of Myrnin, which made me happy. I love Claire’s development, and Shane is growing on me. The relationships in the series really make the story, which is why I was so happy to see those on opposite sides banding together in the face of a common enemy. As with the preceding novel, this book ends on a cliff

Feast of Fools is a happy middle between action and intrigue and the pace holds steady through the entire novel. Claire continues to be a huge naive dummy about danger and has basically no sense of self-preservation despite knowing half of Morganville wants her hurt or dead \o/ We got more of Mr. Bishop and a pretty cool plot twist involving him and his blooood. Myrnin also has his moment to shine and I really love just how complex he is as a character.Warnings for non-consensual kissing, harass...

Rachel Caine has done it again. She starts FEAST OF FOOLS like she does the other books in the Morgenville Vampire series - right in the middle of the action which grabs you by the hair, yanks you in, and won’t let go until the story is over.At the end of MIDNIGHT ALLEY, the foursome living in the Glass House gets some unexpected visitors in the form of Claire’s parents and (in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Speak) the Big Bad - Mr. Bishop A.K.A. Amelie’s “father.” With him in town there has to be tro...

Feast of Fools is the fourth book in the Morganville Vampire series. Again it picks up right where the previous book had left off. Claire's parents have moved to town adding more people for Claire to worry about. A few new vampires have shown up that don't seem to have the best of intentions. With all books in a series I try to keep my reviews a bit vague as I don't want to add much in that would spoil things but with this particular book there wasn't much to even talk about. Easily the slowest

The stakes have been raised and I mean that pun intended! Claire is slowly becoming more of a badass rather than a scared little girl. She can't do much against the vamps but she manages for the most part. I have a feeling she will be very important for the rest of the series. Seems like overall the series is picking up. I still have minor annoyances usually revolving around Shane being a dumbass, but I'm really enjoying this series.

As evidenced on page 213, whilst describing a scary film they were watching;"Being hunted by a city full of zombies might have seemed like a relief in some ways - at least you knew whom to run from, and who to run toward."the beauty of these books is that the line between 'good vs. evil,' is so blurred. Claire runs to Amelie for help often, yet Amelie was willing to sacrifice her to Myrnin in Midnight Alley. Oliver was the 'bad guy' in Glass Houses, yet is a saviour in Feast of Fools. Even Myrn

These books are fun because they're short and have a lot going on so I just fly through them. I also like seeing more into how the vampires feel and their histories, plus the cool things Claire develops with Myrnin and her relationship with Shane getting stronger. There's so much craziness and drama that it's nice the author still takes some time for Claire, Shane, Eve, and Michael to hang out and be normal teenagers. Those moments help balance everything out. Monica continues to be the worst pe...

I am enjoying this series...it's not the most fabulously written thing I've ever read, but it is entertaining, and this book was no exception. The reason that the rating is so low is that there was a MAJOR continuity issue that bugged me all the way through the book. At the end of the previous book, one of the main characters was shot. There was much discussion about his bullet wound, and the smoking hole left in the pocket of the jacket of the person who shot him. In this book, the same charact...

This was probably my least favorite so far. I really am enjoying Myrnin and all his craziness. Claire is really starting to grow up. This one has lots of drama. Damn Bishop and his crazy ideas. Like really he expects all the vampires to bring humans as a symblic sacrifice, i'm sorry what? Lunatic, I daresay he's craazier than our beloved Myrnin. But that is ok we have Clair and Myrnin to save the day and put Bishop in his place. Amelia is becoming a quite annoying character. Why would you use ou...

No review for this one because I am le lazy. Great book, this series keeps getting better and better. I am pleased. Now off to read the fifth one.
