Kitty Goes to Washington by Carrie Vaughn, 4

Book description: The country's only celebrity werewolf, late-night radio host Kitty Norville prefers to be heard, not seen. But when she's invited to testify at a Senate hearing on behalf of supernaturals, her face gets plastered on national TV. Kitty's been in hot water before, but jumping into the D.C. underworld brings a new set of problems.

And a new set of friends and enemies, including the vampire mistress of the city; an über-hot Brazilian were-jaguar; and a paranoid, Bible-thumping senator who wants to expose Kitty as a monster. Kitty quickly learns that in this city of dirty politicians and backstabbing pundits, everyone's itching for a fight.

Review: Kitty Goes to Washington is the follow up to Kitty and the Midnight Hour. Its more plot driven than the first book but the plot was fast paced. I loved this book’s mix of the supernatural and politics. It goes more in-depth on the subject than any other book of its kind. I also loved the atypical portrayal of vampires here. The romance didn’t work for me but it was a very small part of the book and was easily ignored. I can’t wait for the next book in the series. If you like Kelley Armstrong you’ll love Carrie Vaughn.
