Haunted Heroine - Book Review

Haunted Heroine (Heroine Complex #4)

by Sarah Kuhn

What is it about:

The fourth book in the smart, snarky, and action-packed Heroine series follows Evie Tanaka, Aveda Jupiter, and Bea Tanaka as they combat a new supernatural threat.

Everything in Evie Tanaka's life is finally perfect. As a badass superheroine, she defends San Francisco from demon invasion on the regular. Her relationships with superhero partner Aveda Jupiter, little sister Bea, and hot, half-demon husband Nate have never been stronger. Maybe it's possible for a grad school dropout turned put-upon personal assistant turned superhero to have it all?

As if things can't get any better, Evie learns she's pregnant. She's overjoyed, but also worried about whether she's cut out for motherhood. Before she can dwell on her dilemma too much, a women's college reports a string of mysterious "hauntings," and Evie and Aveda are called in to investigate. When the hauntings turn deadly, they decide to move into the dorms full-time, going undercover as grad students.

As she lives out a bizarre version of her grad school life, Evie can't help but wonder about the road not taken: what would her life be like if she'd stayed here instead of pursuing superheroing with Aveda?

What did I think of it:

Mostly this was yet another great addition to this fun series. I do have one grumble though.

So Evie got together with Nate in the first book of this series. Once again she's the lead character, so of course there have to be relationship troubles...

Come on!

You can write a story about someone in a relationship without throwing that relationship under the bus! Especially as the relationship isn't the focus of the story.

That major grumble aside I enjoyed this story. Evie and Aveda make a great team, and in this book they meet some awesome people who help them on their quest. I loved the friendship that was at the heart of this book.

The ghosts and everything connected to them made for a compelling story and I was eager to find out what was going on.

All in all a very enjoyable read apart from the relationship drama.

Why should you read it:

It's a fun Super Heroine read
