Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews
(Found on Bookshare)

Kate Daniels is a plucky heroine whose smart-aleck comments often land her in trouble.  However, her quick wits and strong morals help her improve the dicey situations in which she finds herself.  The author utilizes Kate's strengths and weaknesses with style and creates snappy dialogue and a fast-paced plot.

The almost post-apocalyptic setting is interesting as are the effects the shifts between "Tech" and "Magic" have on the environment.  Andrews also adds more original flavor to this urban fantasy series with her unusual portrayal of vampires.

The only complaint I have about this book is that it was over too quickly.  Readers who prefer slightly darker urban fantasy will enjoy this first book in the Kate Daniels Series.
