The Good, the Bad, and the Undead (The Hollows #2) Review

The Good, the Bad, and the Undead (The Hollows, #2)The Good, the Bad, and the Undead by Kim Harrison

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I did enjoy this book more than I enjoyed the first. I liked the storyline more than I did in the first book. There were still parts that were really boring and dragged. Other things that I didn't really like:

1. The decisions that Rachel made. Continuing to stay with Ivy, not listening to people when they say something that is vital or people that she was working with.

2. The fact that Rachel continued to make decisions without planning. She kept thinking that she wouldn't get caught or get into trouble with decisions that she made. Yet, she always does it seems.

3. Rachel continues to be immature. She isn't considerate of others, she doesn't listen, she whines continuously, and she's just annoying. I don't think I've encountered a protagonist who is as annoying as she.

Other than that:

I knew that Kist was beginning to grow on me. I really like him now. I also like Al a little. And Trent, although he's a murderer and manipulative, he does what he has to do to get the job done. It's not always pretty but he handles business and he does take care of some people. He showed that he wasn't invincible in this book and I liked where things ended up with him and Rachel.

Guess that means I'll be continuing with the series. Not just because I have it on audiobook. I really am starting to like it. I guess it doesn't annoy me as much as Fever did. I really was fighting to finish that series because almost everyone made me so angry. I dunno, maybe it's the same amount of annoyance almost but it's keeping me entertained. It seems as thought, from the reviews, that it gets better as the series progresses. We shall see. =)
