Baker's Dozen

It is getting harder and harder to find cliche's using the number of books I am up to. I may not be able to continue with that idea too much longer.

My 13th book is also the 2nd book in my "First in a Series" challenge. White Cat by Holly Black is the first book in the Curse Workers series. I was relieved to read something so different for a change. Don't get me wrong, I love my typical vampire, werewolf, faerie, and fairy tales retold books but it's rare to find one that isn't some how similar to another one. This book had a fresh idea completely unrelated to the usual paranormal/supernatural theories (at least one that I haven't heard before). The only problem was the plot line was very predictable. There was never any suspense because you could pretty much see where it was going right away.
