My goodness that was GOOD!! What a ride!

I am so disappointed in myself for not getting on the Kitty Katt bandwagon a long time ago. Here are just a few of the things that I look for in a book that Touched by an Alien has going for it:

Aliens - Check

Men in "Black" - Check (its gray and Armani but you get the idea)

Secrets and big reveals - Check (not too info dumpy)

Snarky, witty, human main character - Check (sometimes too good at discovering secrets but there are explanations for that)

Big baddies and indescribable horrors - Check

Good pace and fun/witty dialog - Check (really good banter actually, I LOVE most of the main characters already)

Action and a bit of romance - Check (the sex scenes were hotter than I usually go for but not too much)

Pop culture hints/relatable name drops - Check (love the rock n roll being played from the SUV during battle!)

Now all that said, this is not a book that one reads for intense character development, tear jerking reveals, or deep philosophical messages. This is an urban fantasy (sci-fi actually) and is meant to be fun and fast-paced. Those looking for anything else should've looked at the AWESOME Daniel Dos Santos cover more closely. It says it all!

It was fun and I'm going to dive into the rest of the series as soon as I can!
