Drink Deep Chicagoland Vampires Book 5 edition by Chloe Neill Paranormal Romance eBooks

I'm not one to go through the whole book and give my take. This series would not be the hits and best sellers that they are if they were bad.
I devoured the first three. Loved the tension between Merit and Ethan.
SPOILER ALERT...SPOILER ALERT...SPOILER ALERT...SPOILER ALERT
When Ethan died I cried and cursed the author. I didn't know how she would bring him back but a few things, like so many others, SERIOUSLY DISAPPOINTED ME to the point where I was thinking what the hell.

Merit's grief when Ethan dies is way too brief. He loves her and she loves him and in two weeks it's back to business ... that too quick wrap up was a disservice to the great characters that Ms. Neil created. Merit's quick recovery from her grief was awful, heartless and empty. It was like the author needed to come to an ending fast so let's just move on to the next book. Awful.

Which brings us to Ethan's rise from the ashes and their reunion. Again, these two characters , apart for months, have a brief emotional reunion, discuss the politics of the house ( I was scratching my head thinking what ????? ) and then we move right into a sexual reunion that feels completely emotionless and totally lacking in pAssion, which was what this couple always exuded. Here's Merit , having the gift of her lover and heart returned against all odds and she is still fearing for her heart. Although that reaction is brief as the reader, again, you're like wth. Then the reader doesn't get to see merit and Ethan's physical reunion in the sense of what Merit is thinking holding her beloved again. Here we have another view of the author rushing things along in order to meet a deadline or at least that's how it feels. The most emotionally intense parts of these two books, losing Ethan and his return, are treated as... whatever.

Shame on you Ms Neil for treating your readers and the love between these two great characters with such cavalier disregard.

I'm getting nervous about the future of this series.

Drink Deep Chicagoland Vampires Book 5 edition by Chloe Neill Paranormal Romance eBooks Reviews

I can not get enough of this series!!!!!! I admit after book 4 I was skeptical on my feelings on where this could possibly go, but WOW!! Now there was still a few more tears shed but the author once again leaves me on the edge of my sit... no this is not a cliffhanger but there is definitely the tease element that makes me crave the next book! The romance is more of a background element but still caring and heart warming.
I have followed this series from it's inception, have read hundreds of paranormal novels, and well over a hundred and fifty vampire romance books and this one left me perplexed and dumbfounded. I don't know why the author took this series in the direction she has, but if this is all she has left in her for the series, count me out. I'm one of the once clamoring for the next book in a series to come out so maybe the author bent to publisher time lines and fan pressure and simply didn't think out this edition before rushing it to press.

I have yet to see a staked vampire reduced to a pile of dust who has risen from the ashes. Turning Mallory into a power hungry despot only added to my angst. And we are left in the end with the risen vampire and the key character riding off on what appears to be an extended venture to Omaha? This storyline centers around Chicago, red hots and the local scene.

Save your money fans, maybe the author will revive the series from the dead too in a future installement, but in my opinion, reading this one was a total waste of time.
I'd seen the positive reviews for the Chicagoland Vampire series but after being burned by another fave author gone off the resevration, I was VERY hesistant to pay 12.99 for the versions of the series. Finally I gave in and found myself rewarded by a great series for the first 3 books - I literally couldn't put my kindle down it was that addicting and I felt that the money was well spent. When Ethan was killed in book 4, however, I was literally STUNNED and like many others had to go back and re-read what had happened because I couldn't believe what had happened. I then read the reviews and saw that it wasn't just me and then also saw where people were holding onto Ms. Neill's request that the readers trust her. With that in mind, I read Drink Deep but must agree with others that it just dragged for me, I simply didn't enjoy it the way I'd enjoyed the prior books and yes, I realize that Merit was going through the grieving process so it had to be different from the prior books but it just didn't work for me. I also agree that Mallory's defection to the dark side came out of nowhere, I get that Mallory was becoming more testy and secretive but for her to sneak into the Master Vault TWICE while she was comforting her grief stricken friend who'd just lost her lover seemed WAY out of character from what we'd learned about Mallory. Then she planned to destroy the world and neither her best friend, or more importantly, her lover who lived with her every day and knew that she was learning magic never got the least bit suspicious that she was dabbling in something dangerous??? As smart as we know Catcher to be, he never got a whiff of something off, REALLY??? And then the worst part Ethan's return. I would've preferred that she left him resting in ashes rather than bring him back the way he was brought back. It felt very contrived, rushed, simplistic and just overall VERY disappointing. It was a risky move to kill him off in the first place and one, at least at this point, has not paid off. What was the point of killing him in the first place? For what was ultimately delivered, he could've been put in a coma or something else where the whole "he's dead and gone" thing wasn't absolute. To reduce him to ashes but tell us that he was in between worlds or something like that just didn't ring true. And while readers love to be left hanging on waiting for the next installment, sometimes you just want some damn closure and again, in this respect, the author did not deliver. To the contrary, I'm not excited to find out what happens with Mallory AT ALL because the logical ending will be VERY sad and if we manage to get a "happily ever after" on that front, it will feel REALLY contrived.
At the end of the day, no one is more invested in these characters than the author and I have to believe that she knows what she's doing. That said, I'm not sure I'm interested in sticking around to see how it ultimately plays out. I can admit that might end up being my loss, but I no longer feel invested in these characters so that's a risk I may be willing to take.
I'm not one to go through the whole book and give my take. This series would not be the hits and best sellers that they are if they were bad.
