at all But it wasn t an equally deep book either Aisling is an interesting character, but not completely well fleshed out She has a personality but she s big on feminism it seems except she gets overly hung up and picking fights over things that are seriously minor Like her big brothers protecting her, I get what they are doing, but it s not because they see her as a girl, but because she is their sister IDK I didn t like the overly talked about feminism ...This book ranged from 4 to 4.5 Stars for me The first half of the book sucked me in with it s completely dysfunctional but absolutely lovable family of characters and their snarky humor the heroine of the story was sassy, smart, and independent Which is how I love for my female leads in books to be coupled with a somewhat standoffish but protective alpha male hero that matched the heroine wit for wit The paranormal element of the story was intriguing as well with the concept of a Grim This book ranged from 4 to 4.5

other side of the romance in the narrative too It is typical cozy, only letting you see through the main character Karen Krause does an excellent job of bringing the story to life I loved the snark

Tidings is a very good first book of a series there are great characters and consistent action.I could not stop laughing through most of this book I definitely give this two thumbs up for the comedy.I
