The Corset Diaries by Katie MacAlister

As you know, I'm a big fan of MacAlister's "vampire" books, so I was curious to read one of her books outside that genre.

She still has the slapsticky humor and lots of energetic sex, but I didn't feel like her characters or plot were as well developed as her other books. I liked the premise - throw a bunch of people into a Victorian home and film the "upstairs, downstairs" way of life - but felt the plot jumped a lot, and the characters jumped a lot.

Not her best work, but I still dig her vampire books. Rawr. ;-)
