Demon Hunting in Dixie by Lexi George (Tuesday Intros & Teaser Tuesday)
I was expecting to enjoy Lexi George's Demon Hunting in Dixie. I was NOT expecting to enjoy it as much as I am! It's a hilarious romp with more than a bit of sizzle -- but not so much that I found myself skimming over the sexy bits like I normally would. The humor is what kept me hooked. Addy is constantly thinking or saying something outrageous. Pretty much everyone (even her dog) just let it all come out with their own special kind of Southern charm. I think it's no secret that I love snark. This has it in abundance and if I didn't already own the second book in the series I would be buying it immediately!
"First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros" is from the first paragraph or two of a book being read now (or in the future) and is hosted by Bibliophile by the Sea. "Teaser Tuesday" at The Purple Booker asks for a random line or two from anywhere in the book currently being read.

This one sounds fun, Karen:). I love the writing style - it looks like I'll have to see if I can get hold of this one... My TT this week is completely different - Japanese epic fantasy featuring dragons - https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2017/01/10/teaser-tuesday-10th-january-2016/
This one does sound fun. Will check it out!
It sounds like a fun cozy Karen - enjoy
How fun. I live in Alabama and am always looking for stories that take place here. Cute cover and title too! Going on my list:)

I want to read it! Love the title and teasers. I have two this week - Beheld by Alex Flinn and A Perilous Undertaking by Deanna Raybourn. Happy reading!
I like how we are introduced to the setting and the characters (if we count the dog, and I do). Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
I like snark as well and would keep reading.
I'd need to read a little more of this one to decide whether to commit to it or not... Gald you enjoyed it!
I really like the second line, perhaps because it is so true and I can relate. The intro caught my interest. I don't particularly like demon/vampire/werewolf elements, so that might be too much for me. I'd have to read on to find out.

I love reading Southern fiction ... and snark, too! The author's "voice" in your excerpts appeals to me a lot, especially the last line of your Teaser. Although I rarely read books that include demons, this sounds like one I'd enjoy.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I appreciate your comments.

I already like Addy and Dooley and it sounds like she's a pretty "take things as they come" kind of gal, although the teaser sounds like things are going a bit off the rails. I'd keep reading. Here's the link to my intro and teaser from Leopard at the Door: http://wp.me/p4DMf0-1rl
I like the sound of the narrator in the beginning paragraph. Just that little bit makes me want to read more.
That made me laugh -- I would likely keep reading.
