Review: Crazy by Eve Langlais

Crazy by Eve Langlais
Synopsis (Goodreads):
Ella hears voices and they don’t like anyone.

Institutionalized at a young age after the breakup of her parents, Ella’s always heard voices. Even worse, the voices in her head like to act. She thinks she’s crazy and destined to be a patient for life until the night she meets a vampire and for the first time in her life, the voices shut up.

Zane just wants to enjoy his usual blood buffet, instead he runs into a wisp of a woman who makes him feel emotions he thought long dead. Rescuing her from the insane asylum, he brings her home, determined to assuage his lust; a plan that is foiled by ghostly voices more determined to keep her pure than a steel welded chastity belt.

Together they discover Ella might not be as crazy as everyone thinks, but even as they discover her innate power, someone from her past wants to hurt her. Will crazy and undead prevail against covetous evil? And most important of all, will the voices ever allow them to indulge in the desire that consumes them?
My Thoughts: I know I say this EVERY time I review a book by Eve Langlais but... I freaking adore her characters. They're just so whacked out and it makes me love reading about them. I mean, Ella's had to deal with some weird stuff in her life - not the least of which is being locked up in a mental institute for years and years and years - and she's so accepting of the weirdness that it just made me clap with joy. She's fun! Zane's fun! He doesn't expect to run across someone who can resist his beguilement and when he does, he finds himself snared by her indomitable spirit.

OMG! THERE'S SO MUCH FUN HERE THAT I HAVE TO USE ALL CAPS TO LET YOU KNOW!

Seriously, if you enjoy strong characters who sometimes revel in causing a little (or a lot) of bloodshed, try an Eve Langlais book. Sassy women who rise up when the situation calls for it, strong men who will do anything to hold onto that special someone once they've found her, bad guys who get their just desserts... ALL OF THOSE CAN BE FOUND HERE!

In fact, I want another Eve Langlais book right now. Just try and stop me.

    1. I'm going to get you to read at least one just so I can see whether or not you like her writing as much as I do. In fact, I'm heading over to GR right now to see what books you have by her. *trots off*

    1. This one is currently a stand-alone (although there is the potential for more books, in my opinion), so this is a good one to start with. I think I'm just inclined to like ALL her books, though.

    1. Don't quote me on this but I think it's an older book. 2 or 3 years old. Maybe? It was definitely fun, though. According to her FB updates, she's either getting ready to write the next FUC book or has just started it. Oh, and I know she has the next Cyborgs book almost ready to come out. *squeal*
