3.5 Stars
A stay at home mom is forced to come out of retirement as a demon hunter. Hilarity ensues.

Why I bought it: Folks mentioned that it had echoes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer all grown up.
Why I read it now: Li ...
I finished Carpe Demon , which was really funny! I love that the city where the book is set is called San Diablo. ;)
I just finished Carpe Demon . I really enjoyed it! Think Buffy in her late 30's trying to be retired and living as a suburban housewife. I really identified with the struggles of the main character. I mean, except for the killing demons part.
... series is a humorous take on the vampire genre - think Bridget Jones with vampires.
I wasn't impressed at all with the Carpe Demon series - way more exposition than I like, but to each their own:)
Katie MacAlister have a couple of humorous urban fantasy romance series if that is your ...

Here are a couple of recommendations. 50 Ways To Hex Your Lover and Hex Appeal by Linda Wisdom are about witches and Carpe Demon , California Demon and Demons are Forever by Julie Kenner are (as you can probably guess) about Demons. Happy Reading!
... recommendations for your ghost and demon catagories. Julie Kenner has a demon series out right now.
It starts with Carpe Demon and I think there are 3 or 4 more in that series. Next Victoria Laurie has an awesome paranormal mystery series that involves ghosts the 1st book is What's ...

... or series like Outlander more than likely nobody will read it. If it is a Dean Koontz book or somehting light like Julie Kenner they might read it. This is why I love LT because I find people that love to read as much as I do. Most read all kinds of books and aren't afraid to branch ...
I shouldn't be buying anything else because I have no room on my shelf, but this sounded too cute to pass up:
Carpe Demon by Julie Kenner
Finished Carpe Demon this morning, think I will be diving into one of my SantaThing books next.
I'll get cracking on my Christmas books, starting with Carpe Demon : Adventures of a Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom.
It looks fluffy enough to read with a hangover.
43. Carpe Demon by Julie Kenner - Buffy sure has grown up. This book, the first in a series, follows Kate Connor, a mother of two in San Diablo, California. In her youth, she was a demon hunter with a secretive branch of the Vatican, and she thought she had retired... until a demon comes ...
