3 to 3.5 Stars. I like Jane, she's a great complex character, and I liked the story overall. Jane had one bad break after another, several because she made stupid decisions and I sort of felt like she wouldn't have made those decisions, but then again she was dealing with serious issues and was serisously sleep deprived. I liked the character development and am interested to see where things go with Beast, the Truebloods, Bruiser and Rick. I hope Kemnebi is severely disciplined, but I don't know that we'll see that. 
 For some reason, though Jane really feels a connection to Rick, he's not really my favorite; I'm not rooting for him over all others. I'd like to see Jane get over her ideas about vamps and their servants - it would likely be possible to have relationships with them, true friends, maybe lovers, without them owning her as she's so scared of since she's resistant to being rolled and can hold her own in a physical fight given the right equipment.
