Snared Elemental Assassin Book 16 eBook Jennifer Estep

Have you ever read a series and wondered how in the heck did we get to book 16 of the series? That is me at this moment. It isn’t a bad series and the repetitions of the first books have died out a little. But either I’ve become a much better sleuth in my reading OR this series is becoming really predictable in a lot of ways.

What I liked.

In every book there is at least something I like and for this one it was the swap up of the normal Gin against some insert criminal mastermind here to Gin and the search for a serial killer. It was a good swap up but I totally knew who the serial killer was before mid book and where he was keeping his next victim.

The coroner Ryan is a new favorite character and I like that he seems to be in a very strange Spider Fan Club of sorts. Gin’s entire team are all really good characters. I’d like a little more development on a few of them in particular but maybe that is coming.

Concerns and Little Nagging Things in the Back of my Head.

Well I have a few for this series. One being that I guessed a lot of the plot. But more than that I wonder how many more books JE is planning on cranking out before wrapping it up. I mean am I committed to 20, 25 more than that. I’d really like some sort of end date in mind. How long is it going to take to find the leader of this elusive circle???

My biggest pet peeve with this series is that it seems Gin remembers or flashes back to some super important detail from her past that is the big clue in the present often. I’m usually okay with this a few times in a series but this happens in almost every Gin book. Either she flashes to the past and sees something important or Fletcher has remarkably left some clue she finds even though he died in book 1. I’m a little put out by this one specifically because it revolved again around the night that Gin’s family died. We’ve seen this particular one a few times and every time some new thing happens in that recollection to fit into the current book. It just feels so convenient.

I’d like some movement on the relationship front with Owen and Gin. I mean they are together but I think their relationship has stalled. Owen has turned into some flat paper cut out version of a prefect boyfriend. He shows up to help in everything she is doing, he never has his own thing going on, he supports and agrees with everything she does. They don’t argue or even banter. I mean just a discussion about living together or hey maybe we should both get tested so that we don’t have to use condoms and the pill with sex anymore. Something??? Anything??? Nope it is all perfect in Gin Owen land all of the time now.

Overall

I liked the plot line change up but I could do with less flash backs to reveal new information and more assassinating and present day sleuthing to find the bad guys. It isn't a bad book but it also didn't really make me like the series more either.

Snared Elemental Assassin Book 16 eBook Jennifer Estep Reviews

I voluntarily received an ARC of Snared via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  

This review is hard for me to write because for the first time I found it very hard to get into a book from this series, and it was a bit of a chore to finish.  I think this was more of a mindset thing with me.  But then I am not sure if it is all my fault.  A series needs to stay fresh and keep things new and interesting to keep me hooked.  I have lost interest with many long-running book series.  The same goes with TV shows.  If it is just the same formula plot reproduced with a slight twist over and over I am beyond bored and ready to move one.  Unfortunately, this is how I felt with most of Snared.  The plot was very predictable and even the little twist at the end wasn’t much of a twist.  

I am not sure if I am going to continue this series after this book.  I may give it one more shot.  The plots are becoming incredibly tedious, and this series needs a boost of some originality.  Gin stumbling around not being able to figure out what is so clear to the reader becomes tiresome.  Her hunting a serial Killer was new, but it really was the same, she is pitted against Ashland newest big bad.  It’s up to her to figure it out before all is lost.  She winds up going head to head with big bad and if you have read any other of these books you can guess the ending. Because they are all the same.  

I am giving Snared Two Boundless Stars, I didn’t hate it but it could have been so much better.  I am on the fence If I will give this series another shot.  This may be the nail in the coffin for me.    
Well where do we start? First thing, if you can have a series that has gotten to book #16, you have to have done something right, publishers don't stick with books that don't sell. Gin is most likely the most consistently bloody and violent heroine you will ever read about while still having a heart of gold for the weak and loyal to her friends beyond all reason. So even though she wants to devote full time to The Circle, when a young girl is missing Gin has to make that a priority with some twists you don't expect (and a couple you can see coming)

This book was a bit harder to review because it got stuck a time or two and I felt she was cursed with temporary stupidity to get the plot moved along. Thing is though, the story was addicting and kept me glued to the pages, I would hit one of these "She ain't that stupid" moments and then just move on with the story but it was distracting.

We have started searching out The Circle in earnest and she has at least one of them in her sights but things get complicated and Tucker seems to be a real enigma and I hope he does not get so evil we can't like him just a bit.

Bottom line Great story, good plot, some stumbles in keeping Gin consistent, really good ending and we get to know a bit more about the night her family died. Hang on folks, this ride is not over.
