Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: Guilty Pleasures, Volume 1 by Laurell K. Hamilton
3.0
I got caught up in the story by the last couple of chapters, but I only made it that far because of my obsession with finishing any book I start. Far too much expository text, which made some of the art feel like filler. Yet on the other hand, I didn't feel like I really knew enough about what was going on. I guess that's the danger of reading the graphic version of something first.
Some lovely art in here, even if Anita is often grossly misproportioned. And I truly do love that she sleeps with a stuffed penguin. A nice way to hold on to childhood innocence when your job is so bleak.
Think I'll try the novel to see if it fills in the blanks better.
