Midnight Crossroad

"Really good. I look forward to more books in this new series"

"Charlene Harris I love both of your new series.Looking forward to another book in both."

"Interesting characters and a fun setting. Will continue with the series!"

"Welcome to Midnight, Texas, a town with many boarded-up windows and few full-time inhabitants, located at the crossing of Witch Light Road and Davy Road. It’s a pretty standard died-up western town. Stop at the one traffic light, and everything looks normal. Stay awhile, and learn the truth… Fun books -- I like that the world isn’t ending, it’s not anything major, it’s just a small town of like ten people who all have secrets and some drama that arises coincidentally, not because there are GRAND PLOTS omg. It’s a nice break once in a while."

"A great start to a new series! <br/><br/>Welcome to Midnight, Texas...a small town where everything seems pretty much normal if you just drive through and don't look any anything too closely. (It sort of reminded me of the Haven TV series in that regard.) <br/><br/>Harris has written a great cast of characters (despite their odd names, which did kind of grow on me), including Manfred, the Internet psychic, who had arrived in Midnight for reasons unknown and has a drive to work until he just about drops; Fiji, (and her cat Mr. Snuggly, which I thought was hilarious) the resident witch who runs a small shop and holds classes for those interested in the craft; Bobo, owner of Midnight Pawn, who has some family secrets that people would kill to uncover; Olivia, whose identity and profession are a complete mystery; Madonna Reed and her husband Teacher, who run the local diner; the Lovell family that runs the local Gas N Go; Joe and Chuy, the gay couple that owns the nail salon and antique shop; the Rev, your not-so-average clergyman who tends the pet cemetery; and Lemuel, the vampire that can suck energy as well as blood, who lives below Midnight Pawn. <br/>The book focuses on the town rather than on one particular character, and for about 8% of the book or so, I was unsure how I felt about the writing style. By 20% it felt c ompletely natural, and I was completely im mersed in the story. <br/>Also present are some characters from Harris' Lily Bard and Harper Connelly series, and I enjoyed the way that ties her books together. <br/>Regardless of how you felt about the Sookie series (I haven't read the last couple, so don't tell me!) I highly recommend picking up this book. It's a completely different feel, and I definitely can't wait to read the next one!! :)"

"One of my favorite series of all time! Love the characters and the humor"
