Andrews is probably my favorite fantasy writer, so I was thrilled to see another book. This is a short (145 pages) entry into the Hidden Legacy series (note the 3.5 descriptor) and as long as you know that going in I think you'll enjoy the story. There is a little bit of Rogan and less of Nevada, which is fine because this is Catalina's story, but I was a little wistful. It's an investigation into Rogan's extended family more than a wedding tale and I had trouble keeping track of all the characters even with the family tree at the front of the book. There's just not enough time to truly get to know all of them in 145 pages, so I mentally grouped them into "the good bunch" and "the bad bunch." A short, pleasant diversion but not a full book in which to get happily lost.

Diamond Fire is not YA. But it felt like one. I usually run from the uncertain young female coming into her own story like my hair was on fire. If anyone could make me love a YA story it would be Ilona Andrews because they are simply The Best.
It's a cute little story that I enjoyed primarily because I already love the characters. And the Andrews did their usual phenomenal job with dialogue and character interaction. I have high hopes for the next one.
