Bless Your Heart

I just finished Bless your Heart by Lindy Ryan and here are my thoughts.

The Evan's women have a job to do. They own the funeral parlor and they bury the dead and for 15 years the dead have stayed dead but something has changed. The dead are again, coming back to life and the only people who even know and can do anything about it, are the town's outliers, modern day southern Strigoi hunters.

As more and more of the town starts turning up dead and then undead, the Town Deputy has more questions than answers and as the Evan's women gear up to fight, they know that it might be time to tell the secret that has plagued their hearts for the last 15 years.

I have a habit of not reading synopsis for books and I saw this one on instagram and was like, heck yeah looks good..... I requested it on netgalley and boom!! Was excited to start. I had no idea it was a paranormal mystery, I thought it was a romance so when I started reading I realized I had made the best mistake of my life! Even the cover didn't give me a hint... The lady literally has fangs haha! I was drawn right in. It was a lighter horror kind of book and the Evan's women family dynamic had me chuckling! Ducey was so funny. Each Evan's got their own POV and it was a little much I understood why the author went this way.

It was a dark humor with some horror splashed in while the mystery of who the original vampire is in town. It was highly entertaining. I enjoyed the plot a lot, I am really glad it is book 1 of a series. The character development was well done and each person added value to the story. Big fan of southern books too. The tone was epic with a decent pace which is always a bonus when you are reading a mystery book.

I'm hoping now that we have been introduced to the main characters, that we will get less POVs in the next book because I really would like a more tidy storyline in the next one. If you are looking for a paranormal mystery that will make you giggle, pick this one up.

4 stars Thank you @netgalley and @minotaurbooks for my gifted copy
