Review: The Diva Haunts the House

The Diva Haunts the House by Krista Davis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have really come to enjoy this series, it quickly became one of my favorites. The characters are more life like and feel like old friends when I read the books. The pace was quick, the mystery and plot were good, and how can you not like a book centered around Halloween.

I love how Sophie has so much patients to deal with Natasha, because I wouldn't. But as I read this series, Natasha is needed in the book. Even if she's self-centered, egotistic, picture perfect within herself, her home, and with her show, her neediness . She does help break up the ho hum dum and she brings in the comic relief. Sophie also gets some good jabs at Natasha and she doesn't even realize that Sophie is being sarcastic towards her. I enjoy the other main characters that play parts in the series, Wolf, Sophie's boyfriend and detective on the police force, Mars, Sophie's ex-husband and Natasha's boyfriend (Don't ask), Humphrey who runs the local restaurant and is friends with both Mars and Sophie, and Sophie's neighbor Nina. All the character's fit well with each other, and in this book, both Natasha's mom Wanda and Mar's mother June are here to help Sophie with the haunted house.

Sophie is getting ready for Halloween and is getting a haunted house ready for the town to come through. June tells a story about an old vampire that use to stay at the house when it was a boarding house. When one of the kid's mother's boyfriend is murdered at Mars and Natasha's costume party, they notice that there are two puncture wounds in his neck. Was June's story just a story, or is there actually a real vampire on the loose?
