Taming Demons for Beginners by Annette Marie

4 Stars

Robin was forced to move in with her uncle’s family after the death of her parents.  She was given three rules.

Rule One: Don’t look at the demon

Rule Two: Don’t listen to the demon

Rule Three: Don’t talk to the demon

She proceeds to ignore all of these rules and accidentally forms a pact with a demon.  Now she has to figure out how to free the demon from her without anyone in the magical community finding out they are bound like they should.

There were some pacing issues with this story for me.  There were a couple times it was a little slow and I was wanting it to move on already.  Part of that might be because this book overlaps Dark Arts and Daiquiri and has similar scenes but from a different perspective.  Overall though I loved the story.  I also love Annette Marie’s writing style.  It flows nicely with parts being serious and parts being super funny.  I will definitely be checking out the next book in the series to see where this spin off series is going.
