Urban fantasy is certainly a subgenre that is overflowing with series. So, for me to read beyond the first few chapters, a book has to have something different, something special. Monster in my Closet charmed me with Our Heroine's voice - smart and sassy and dare I say it? Quirky. I like that instead of the typical badass with tats and leather pants, Zoey dresses funkily with no leather or hidden knives/guns upon her person. When she feels threatened one night, what does she grab to confront the intruder? A toilet brush! Loved it!My only complaint and it's a very small one is that the boyfriend's secret was clearly telegraphed so the big tell all moment was a bit anticlimactic. But! I really enjoyed this and I'm looking forward to more of Zoey's adventures.
Due out in July 2012.
