I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series.<br /><br /> I've been hearing mixed thoughts on the rest of the Baskerville Affair novels, so I'm a little nervous going into the second one.

Probably why I haven't gotten into all those Jane Austen re-tellings! Anyway, really enjoyed reading your reviews. I so want to read Soulless. That one has been on my list for a while.

I do enjoy fantasy, including urban fantasy and paranormal romance, so it's not too much of a stretch for me to find myself wanting to read these types of books as well.

I don't know if you would like them, to be honest. Given you are not a fan of fantasy.
