I'm looking for a crime lord who will make the Ashland quake in their boots. Nov 26, Ronda rated it liked it. Unfortunately, I am not a fan of this book Usually Gin and the gang keep me on my toes but I found their vacation boring and repetitive. I seemed to be reading paragraphs that were extended with nothing if that makes sense!

The entire book felt like a child's game of Hide and Seek but for a bunch of jewels! I think what disappointed me more was that ending Knowing Gin is going to be hooked on a new set of enemies doesn't bode too well with me, I think I needed a finale, a final ending..

This one covered some really dark material I mean honestly, the series is about an assassin Gin finds out that some of her enemies aren't just violent evil thugs. She makes some progress on her Circle hunting.

And we get to see quite a few of our favorite cast members. D My biggest complaint is that it was predictable. I pretty much guessed almost everything that was going to happen. But, in typical Estep fashion, I had fun anyways. All in all, a very solid entry into the series. She says she's planned now through book 19 really? You're killing me, Estep -- why 19 instead of 20? Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. View all 16 comments. It almost felt like the author tried to return to her roots because the beginning of this book is very basic in terms of the Urban Fantasy style.

It was still very well-written but even the writing felt a little on the safe side in this one. But because this is one of my favorite series, I do have pretty high expectations. For me, it was really the safest one because I could predict a lot of what happened. Apr 12, Douglas Meeks rated it really liked it. Well where do we start? First thing, if you can have a series that has gotten to book 16, you have to have done something right, publishers don't stick with books that don't sell. Gin is most likely the most consistently bloody and violent heroine you will ever read about while still having a heart of gold for the weak and loyal to her friends beyond all reason.

So even though she wants to devote full time to The Circle, when a young girl is missing Gin has to make that a priority with some twi Well where do we start? So even though she wants to devote full time to The Circle, when a young girl is missing Gin has to make that a priority with some twists you don't expect and a couple you can see coming This book was a bit harder to review because it got stuck a time or two and I felt she was cursed with temporary stupidity to get the plot moved along.

Thing is though, the story was addicting and kept me glued to the pages, I would hit one of these "She ain't that stupid" moments and then just move on with the story but it was distracting. We have started searching out The Circle in earnest and she has at least one of them in her sights but things get complicated and Tucker seems to be a real enigma and I hope he does not get so evil we can't like him just a bit.

Great story, good plot, some stumbles in keeping Gin consistent, really good ending and we get to know a bit more about the night her family died. Hang on folks, this ride is not over.

As Gin digs deeper into both situations, she uncovers a serial killer is loose in Ashland. Estep had me glued to my Kindle as I took a ride with my favorite assassin. The Elemental Assassin books are always full of high-octane action, and Snared is no exception with its race against time - serial killer plot.

While parts were fairly predictable, I found the energy surrounding Gin and her situation strong, and it pulled me in right from the start. With that said, there are a few things that bugged me this time, more than usual. Gin is an extremely intelligent woman; one of the smartest heroines out there. She also relies heavily on her gut instincts. And she always seems to have facial recognition amnesia. That whole "something is off but I can't figure out what" thing happens too often.

But at this point, I find them disappointing.

Even with my frustrations over repetitious behaviors that seem to dumb down Gin and the issues with her memory recall, Snared still entangled me. I liked that I figured out the plot right from the get go, yet Ms. Estep made me second guess my hypothesis over and over as the clues surfaced. I loved watching Gin figure out who the bad guy is and how she brings them down. Snared had many layers, and Gin uncovered a few secrets that brought her a little closer to discovering how to end the mysterious leader of the Circle. Apr 28, Jen Davis rated it really liked it.

Assassin Gin Blanco has come a long way over the past 16 books. Or at least the figurehead. Here, we see the strengthening of a friendship between Gin and small-time underworld player Jade. Gin is her regular loyal, snarky, bad-ass self and I love her now as much as ever. I love her relationship with Owen. At least in my mind. This is a fun, action packed series that stands-up from story to story. May 15, Maria Dimitrova rated it it was ok Shelves: Book about a murder for the MacHalo Reading Challenge.

So predictable that it hurt! In fact if you look predictable in the dictionary you'll be redirected to it! I figured out who the killer was by chapter 6!

And there were like 25 more chapters to go! And Gin wasn't able to figure it out when he was staring at her face view spoiler [after tying her up on a chair hide spoiler ]! Gin, dear, I knew you're not the brightest bulb but I never figured you for an idiot. Seriously, get yourself together! Two things for Ms.

Estep to think about. I've come to dread the sex scenes here because of the condom and little white pills phrase. In fact we got it 15 books ago. And 2 stretching up a storyarc so much is not only unnecessary, it's damn annoying. I complained about how long it took Gin to finally face Mab but that was damn quick compared to how she's handling this Circle business. Another book in the series! Yet another amazing installment in the Jennifer Estep's Elemental Assassins series. This series just keeps getting better and better. In Snared, Gin's nemesis is a serial killer with a penchant for blondes.

Lots of down home barbecue cooking. And a few little flashbacks revealing a little bit more of Gin's background. Can't wait for more.

Book 16 in the Elemental Assassin series gets underway with Gin beginning her revenge against the Circle. However, with a friend in need, the story quickly turns to a race against time as we search for a missing girl. The search gets personal when a victim is found with Gin's rune marked on her hands. We are used to blood and violence in this series, but a sick serial killer is new.

It was interesting to see how everyone reacts different to a serial versus all the other killing normally done in A Book 16 in the Elemental Assassin series gets underway with Gin beginning her revenge against the Circle. It was interesting to see how everyone reacts different to a serial versus all the other killing normally done in Ashland. Of course, the things we know the killer does to the victims does add quite a bit of creep factor.

I had the killer figured out pretty early so I was a little frustrated with Gin when she was off. The adrenaline that this series causes in me, and especially the time crunch we were under to save this girl had me yelling at Gin to "THINK". I had issues with Gin's dreams in Snared. I'm not sure if it is my memory of the dreams from previous books that caused it or not. It felt like the dreams are conflicting with each other. Things that happened in previous dreams not matching up with the dreams in Snared. I was really surprised by what the dreams revealed about Tucker in this book.

There seems to be a lot to Tucker's character that makes you look at him a certain way. I don't know what to think of him now. He's manipulative and scary, but there is more. But is that more enough to keep him from killing Gin? It's so hard to say. I'm very conflicted about him. As I have grown to expect with every Elemental Assassin book, I was completely taken in by the adrenaline rush we are given. Snared is fast paced and we fly from conflict to conflict just biting our nails to see who will be killed next and if Gin is going to survive this time. I always know in the back of my brain that she will survive, but man, when she is in the midst of the fight, the author always seems to bring Gin to that spot of "will she or won't she" survive.

In the moment of reading, you are sucked in and even knowing she'll survive, you can't help but fight the anxiety.

It always has me flipping pages at record speed trying to keep up with the action. The Circle will continue to be our overall arc as we didn't get too much more to go on in Snared. After Tucker's warning, Gin is reminded that she not only is planning her search and destroy of the Circle members, but she has a responsibility to her loved ones too.

I'm excited to see what her next steps are going to be and who the next baddie up for battle is.

Butt srsly, does the A stand for Asshole? Sixteenth in the Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series set in Ashland, North Carolina, and revolving around a retired assassin and the new queen of crime. If you're interested, there is a chronological listing of the Elemental Assassin books on my website. My Take Oh, mama! And the truth of his position in the Circle. Almost makes ya feel sorry for Sixteenth in the Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series set in Ashland, North Carolina, and revolving around a retired assassin and the new queen of crime.

Almost makes ya feel sorry for him. I had one major issue with this story, and I do NOT understand how Gin never thought of checking out either of these two places. The overall series arc is Gin wanting to know who put out the order to kill her mother. And now I gotta wait to learn more! What is with people that they can think this way?? The Characters Gin Blanco , the former Genevieve Snow, is a retired assassin — with elemental gifts of stone and ice — and unhappy underworld queen.

Dierdre Shaw Spider's Trap , 13, through Unraveled , 15 had been his mother. These two have had some interesting ups and downs. Eva Grayson is his little sister. Annabelle was the sister who died with their mother. The Pork Pit is… …a barbecue restaurant Gin inherited from her foster father and assassin mentor, Fletcher Lane. The goth Sophia Deveraux is the head cook with some useful skills with her air elemental power…she does good "clean-up". She uses her air elemental power in the beauty salon she runs.

Rosco is her basset hound. Lorelei Parker and Jade Jamison are two of the underworld bosses and friends of Gin's. Lacey Lawrence went missing after her shift. Sandra Reeves was his first victim. Ryan Colson is the head coroner, grateful to Gin. Detective Sykes is one of those lazy slobs.

Gerald and Tim are a couple of the giant bouncers. Five Oaks is… …a very upscale country club managed by Marco.

The Circle is… …a super-secret organization that runs Ashland and its criminals with Hugh Tucker as their number one vampire enforcer. Damian Rivera , a trust fund drunk and womanizer, is one of their members. Maria and Richard Rivera had been his parents. Some of the thugs include dwarves Ken and Henry. Harley Grimes had been a serial killer in Heart of Venom , 9. Mab Monroe had been a vicious part of the Circle. Barry , Chuck , and Carlos had been with her that night.

Glo-Glo is a makeup company out of Bigtime , New York. The Cover and Title The cover is deep purples of a stone wall and house in the background, a bright orange light shining from an upper window. Gin, her hair moving in the breeze and wearing black jeans and tank top and a brown leather jacket, with one of her silverstone knives on her hip, is contemplating the blood flowing from the spider runes burned into her palms.

My best guess on the title is the trap, for they Snared the killer. May 30, Jennifer Bad Bird Reads rated it really liked it.

At A Glance I do love a good serial killer. The Good It's up to Gin to find a missing girl before Ashland's secret serial killer strikes again. I loved the serial killer aspect. I just find them fascinating. Those rascally psychopaths are straight up bananas, and who doesn't love bananas? Anyways The action was awesome, like always. Hugh Tucker is becoming one interesting character. We hate him but we are oddly fascinated by him. I have my guesses on what's up with him. He's in deep with The Circle and killing Gin is his goal Gin's flashbacks were very informative.

Oh those twists and turns. I love getting another piece of the puzzle. The Bad This series is getting pretty predictable, and each book has a similar format that can get tedious after 16 books.

Doesn't mean I didn't love this book, I just wanted to warn anyone who plans to start this series. Owen and Gin are so cute together but their fire is gone. They are getting a bit boring. Final Thoughts Even though this series is getting a little stale, I still love Snared. I had a good time with it. Quotes "I felt like I was Snared in someone else's spiderweb, and everything I did only made the sticky threads twist and tangle tighter and tighter around me.

In book 16, Gin is back in all her badass glory. In this book, Gin and her friends track down a serial killer hunting young women. Gin is one of my all time favourite fictional heroines. I love that there is absolutely no romantic angst in this story. As always, she is fierce and loyal, brave and strong. She uses her powers and her brain and she enlists the help of her friends and family.

This is also a wonderfully crafted murder mystery. This is a wonderful addition to the series. Nov 17, Barbara rated it it was amazing. As usual, another outstanding story filled with danger, mystery, and Gin's determination to right a wrong and rescue an innocent from an insane serial killer. She's still trying to figure out who the mastermind running the criminal group the Circle is, so she can end his reign once and for all. This is the group that is responsible for the death of her mother and sister and she has vowed to hunt them all down and put an end to their criminal activities while gaining vengeance for her loss.

After As usual, another outstanding story filled with danger, mystery, and Gin's determination to right a wrong and rescue an innocent from an insane serial killer. After a young woman is kidnapped and the girl's sister begs her to help find her, Gin and her friends agree to help, and they plan to put an end to the activities of the kidnapping serial killer while they're at it.

Of course this will entail plenty of deadly action, the use of Gin's stone and ice magic, and her strong determination to let nothing stop her, no matter what it takes. I have to say, I wasn't that impressed with this installment. While I did like the idea of Gin going up against a bona fide serial killer, it wound up being rather anti-climactic at best. The clues were spelled out for the reader, so much so that I was yelling at Gin for being so thick headed with regard to figuring the mystery out. It was just so predictable! Even the overall story arc wasn't furthered that much, and the books are getting rather repetitive.

At this point, I am very grateful tha I have to say, I wasn't that impressed with this installment.
