Product Description:
Weather Warden Joanne Baldwin has protected the human race from monster storms, been killed, reborn as a Djinn, and then restored to her original form. Now she's throwing the dice to stop an infinitely powerful, deeply disturbed kid-who is holed up in a Vegas hotel-from bringing on a new ice age.

Bottled elementals are fashionable.
I haven't read the very first couple of these, but the heroine of the piece is someone with elemental superpowers, part of a larger organisation - some control fire, earth, but she is considerably airier. In several aspects, as she often goes on about the right incredibly expensive shoes to have, etc.
Just a 3.5 this one. Sort of your bit over 3. 25 mark.
Here, her and her djinn boyfriend and an alliance of others have a superpowered problem to deal with in Las Vegas - a rogue and his Djinn servant have set up there looking to suck up a whole lot of power.
An organisation in opposition decides that bumping said rogue off is a good plan, and our Weather Warden is getting beaten up in the middle, trying to work out what to do.

After reading the very first novel of the Dresden files, I find myself drawn to these urban fantasy series novels ( and there are many ). I have yet to find many that I read beyond the very first book. Since the very first book, I kind of have a crush on Joanne. These books are so fun, and the third book in the series is no exception. These aren't the Hardy Boys, at the end of each book the landscape has in some way changed - it really is a "continuing saga". If you are tired of other boring series, tune into this one.

Jo along with David are on a mission to get to Vegas where Kevin had run off to with the most powerful Djinn ever. Back to her human form Jo is restricted to human methods of transportation. But Jonathan, the Djinn that Kevin has control of, is a very powerful Djinn, he is the Djinn master. And he knows that Jo is after him and he has never had a warm spot for her. When Jo reaches Vegas she discovers that there is a new group of people with weather powers residing there and they aren't Wardens. As always there is an enemy lurking nearby, one that Jo had faced long ago and he is out for revenge.

I love the Weather Warden series, and would not have missed any part of the story in all 5 books.

The very first two books were good, but this book was kind of boring. The heroine is becoming smug and unlikable (like the last season of Friends if you know what I mean).
I feel like the dialogue is there just so she can say her zingy one liners. Which are becoming less zingy and more obvious with each page.
This book reminded me of a Katie Mcalister book. Lots of people like her, but I think she's irritating and overly pleased with herself. Similarly, both authors seem to think that just because they are amused, everyone else will be too. I think her jokes need more quality control. Personally, I would prefer it if authors didn't make a joke unless it's better than 'lightly amusing'.
I didn't connect with this book. Characters made weird decisions that were only for the purpose of furthering the plot. By the middle of this book I was skimming pages and although I own the subsequent one, I think it will take me several months to read it.
Read Melusine by Sarah Monette instead. Or Anne Bishop (dark jewels trilogy) or Kim Harrison.
