Life Sucks After You Die

Twice Bitten, Book 1

De: Crystal-Rain Love

Narrado por: Danielle Muething

What do you get when you mix an incubus bite with a vampire bite?

A shitastrophe.

All I wanted to do was go to a bar and drown my sorrows in some alcohol, but I had to get attacked by an incubus. Now, I'm being guarded by a hunky but oh-so-irritating vampire (who bit me, too) while the incubus stalks me.

Being guarded by the sexy vampire probably wouldn't be that bad if not for the fact that my perfect boss has finally noticed me. Try dating while a vampire guards you way too closely and an incubus tracks your every move, waiting to pounce.

Then, there's some creepy hunter guy who also wants to kill me. The sun wants to kill me. Human food wants to kill me. Don't even get me started on my family.

It had promise

I thought this could be a pretty interesting story, but the heroine was awful. I get wanting to write a strong female lead, but this went past strong and into obstinate brat territory doing horrible things and calling for her man to save her. Plus she had so many poisonous ideas about the women around her it was almost painful to read all that insecurity.

Good

I liked the story but didn’t like the main character. She was very whiny and that’s a big turnoff for me. Other than that it was an enjoyable listen. I was given a free copy for an honest review.

I wanted to like it

I like the premise of this book and they gave their paranormals a different history and weaknesses. But the main character is supposed to be a mature adult and yet acts like a spoiled teenager. She is supposed to be so insecure and acts like a fool yet they try and portray her as a sting independent woman who won’t let a man run her. She is so contradictory that it makes you wonder at the plan for her character to grow. She supposedly makes a decision to help the others and then turns around and makes the same mistake she had already made earlier in the book. He denial and lack of accountability screamed child and yet she’s a late 20s marketing executive .
I’m hopping the next book will be better. I think the basis is good let’s see if the execution come through.

Funny, but Predictable

So here’s the deal: this is a cute story. There’s some humor, and some great one liners. The main character has some relatable mishaps, and definitely thinks she has a boob problem.

But while she’s funny, there’s almost zero character development. For anyone.

The hero is just an alpha male that isn’t very alpha. A bad guy that isn’t a bad guy. He’s just…a guy that is pretty close to perfect.

The heroine is predictably flawed - beautiful but doesn’t realize it, insecure, limited sexual experience and has a series of mishaps that have to do with her being humorous and/or kind of an oddball.

Together, I didn’t feel the chemistry. While it’s a sweet get together, I didn’t feel the turmoil of the buildup. It’s like you always knew they were getting together, and the H was just…there to be the romance element. That’s it.

If you are looking for a vampiric tale that doesn’t take itself seriously, is an easy read and has some great moments of humor - this is for you. It’s along the lines of Molly Harper’s Good Girls Don’t Have Fangs which fits a specific mood. Just take it for what it is.

As for the performance - it was okay. It was well edited, and I didn’t find any errors. That said, I’m just not crazy about the actress. Her men all sound very similar, and I just felt like the heroine was very monotone. But when it comes to the main components: editing, errors, etc. it his the mark.

great book

I highly recommend this book looking forward to the hearing the next book. narrator does a great job. I highly recommend!

Funny and exciting

This was a great book! What's not to love about a Vampire Romantic Comedy? I enjoyed this story very much. Great ending, wish it were longer :)

Just ok

I wanted to like it but it’s just an ok read. The female lead is annoying and it’s hard to get past. The narrator was not a good pick for it.

Don't waste the credit

I really wanted to like this book but the main character is awful. Dani just made me want to smack some sense into her over mad over. I agree with other reviews that she is a total brat. It was a hard book to get through. The narrator was fine but not the best I have heard. Overall, I would skip this one.

Life Sucks After You Die

Although Danni does seem to be a bit of a brat and have major self esteem issues, she grew on me as the story progressed. Ryder is such a patient character that is willing to go the distance to keep Danni safe from all her enemies that she gained overnight. I enjoyed listening to this book and with the way it ended, you could stop there, but I will be getting the next when it comes out.

I was give a copy in exchange for an honest review.

Awesome

Absolutely love this narrator and story collectively. Just wish the rest was available in audible because I can't go without hearing this vs reading lol
