Helpful Score: 1

I was skeptical about this book in the beginning; it took me over 150 pages to find the book interesting. Now I am hooked and want to read more about Anita and her friends.

Anita Blake is an Animator and Vampire Hunter who lives in a world where Supernatural beings are openly accepted by the government. There are Werewolves, Wererats, Vampires, Ghouls, Zombies, and a myriad of other creatures in this book. 'Guilty Pleasures' is about Anita working with the city's Master Vampire, Nickolaos, to solve a rash of vampire murders that have recently taken place. While reluctant to work this case, Anita is given no choice but to cooperate when the life of one of her closest friends is threatened. While trying to solve the murder's multiple attempts are made on Anita's life, coming close to death on one occasion, and almost becoming a vampire servant in a few others. With the help of Edward, another Vampire Hunter, Anita is able to close to the truth and take out a few deserving vampires along the way.

I would categorize this book under Supernatural Suspense/Murder Mystery. This is not a romance novel in any way. From what I have read in the series reviews the 'Anita Blake Vampire Hunter' series turns Romantic later down the line.
