River Marked
River Marked | Patricia Briggs
Being a different breed of shapeshifter-a walker-Mercy Thompson can see ghosts, but the spirit of her long-gone father has never visited her. Until now, on her honeymoon with the Alpha werewolf Adam. An evil is stirring in the depths of the Columbia River-and innocent people are dying. As other walkers make their presence known to Mercy, she must reconnect with her heritage to exorcise the world of the legend known as the river devil...

I‘m so in love with this series ❤️❤️❤️ Just finished reading these 3 back to back and about to start the next one. Mercy and Adam such a great couple!

Mercy and her crew struggle to control the uncontrollable—a river monster! I‘m #latetotheparty with this series. Plus, I constantly put it down for extended periods. But that‘s only because I‘d like to stretch out my enjoyment.

My only concern is whether the author has a personal connection to the indigenous peoples and mythologies in her books. Or does she practice cultural appropriation?

#GhostCat is helping by staying in her little cave while I mop the floors.

--

Mercy is camping - this time she has to deal with Native American magic instead of Vampires and Werewolves. Nice change from the other books in the series.

So nice to come back to the Mercy Thompson series after a bit of a break. This one delved into Mercy‘s Native American background and provided more information about the walkers.

My favorite read-a-thon is back and I‘m so excited!

Here is my TBR for September‘s edition, my TBR specific to some character traits, and version one of what my character might look like (I‘m sure this will change as I take more time with her).

robinb The Kate Daniels world is just as amazing as Mercy Thompson‘s. 😊 And I think it‘s neat that Ilona Andrews is a husband/wife writing team. ❤️ 3y
BacklistReader @robinb that is cool. And I have definitely heard nothing but good thinks about Kate Daniels. I think I‘ll have to push it up higher on my TBR…. 3y

This one gets more into Native America culture and includes one of my biggest fears—huge monsters in water.

Another great installment. I love Mercy. 👍🏻

Book 11 for #screamathon and #scarathlon #teamharkness + 9 other readathons

Loving my reread of the Mercy Thompson series.
I read the first as part of #PLC and continued as I hadn‘t read the later books in the series (or the alpha and omega series) and thought I should reacquaint myself with the story before the new ones.

This is one of my favourites as I love Coyote and the walking stick, and LOVE Mercy and Adam‘s relationship 🥰

1hr15 reading done for the day, book one of two down, and time for bed!

A spot of bedtime reading for me!

And I just wanted to show you all the Harry Potter inspired drink I was enjoying earlier (it was a Christmas present along with jelly slugs, every flavour beans, and a chocolate frog). Flying cauldron butterscotch beer. It has two of my favourite things - butterscotch and cream soda. If it wasn‘t so expensive it would be a frequent treat!

I‘m struggling with time, and with actually reading physical books at present. My dog doesn‘t like my attention being on something in my hands, so often tries to eat any books, magazines, or phones that happen to be being used! I am hoping to finish at least this one before the new year though (I am soooo close to the end) and perhaps the next holiday read I had planned :p

10/10 6th book in the series, and still going strong. Interesting juxtaposition of fantasy and factual details. Well worth the read, would be great for travelling, on the beach, or anywhere in between.

The road trip helped me adapt to listening to audiobooks. It also helps me to listen to books I‘ve previously read. Plus, I get why everyone likes Lorelei King as a narrator. So now I‘m trying #audiowalking in my new town.

KathyWheeler Listening to books I‘d already read helped me get used to audiobooks; now I listen to all kinds of books on my walks and in the car. 6y

This was so so good. I really liked learning about Mercy‘s heritage. I adore her relationship with Adam and how the bond between them is utilized but not relied upon. The beast was really interesting. Can‘t wait for more.

Seasons Greetings fellow Litizens! I'm sorry I haven't been active here in the last couple of months. One of my New Year's resolutions is going to be maintaining a more active presence here again!

This time of year, I often prefer revisiting old favorites to reading new books. I just finished a full of reread of the Hollows series, I'm currently part way into a reread of the Mercy Thompson books, and I plan to move on to the Iron Druid next.

This image from National Geographic came in handy while rereading this fantastic instillation of the Mercy Thompson series! A bet leads to an impromptu and important moment. An ancient evil re-emerges. A new set of paranormal people come into play. And, of course, snarky banter is had. Epicness abounds! I think this is my favorite book in the entire series so far!

iread2much It's hard to tell which is my favorite, it seems like she keeps writing new ones to be my favorite! 7y

This one was a really fun read. It's taken 5 books for the romance to really kick in, and I'm happy with that pace. It's a nice change from the they-met-and-fell-madly-in-love-at-first-sight type of romance that's prevalent in most stories. This book also involved Native American mythology & mysteries and I loved it! I finished it today, & I'm moving right into the next installment :)

It took 5 books for the romance in this series to develop. About time. Native American mysteries and mythology play an important role in this one. I liked it and am already reading the following book. Mercy Thompson is addictive

katelynd Haha! Couldn't have said it better myself! Just finished this one today & started in Frost Burned. Mercy is addicting! 🤓 8y

Another winner in this series....action, scary monster and a new character to flesh out Mercy's background. Also loved that she and Adam had more one-on-one couple time without the pack in this one. Totally recommend this series to anyone looking for fantasy, a strong female lead, romance, and an interesting cast of characters. #romantsy #osrbc

Mercy Thompson #6 starts with a wedding and ends with a love letter. And in between is murder, mystery and mahem with a sprinkling of friendship, injury and self discovery. As with the rest of the series, well worth reading!

@Mc_cart_ny just gave me some more traditional recs for when I'm #inthemoodforlove so I'll have to check those out. In the meantime, I always associate this book with love because it's one I read soon after I became engaged to my husband, and it tells the story of Mercy's wedding and honeymoon. #SeasonsReadings2016 @RealLifeReading

I am a bit swamped with house-sitting on top of regular work (here is the very demanding kitty I feed at the window who also yells for pets when she's feeling ignored!) so I've been pretty bad with these whole updates and challenges -things. At least there are audio books! I #reread both #katedaniels and #mercythompson via audiobook pretty constantly... I find the two series soothing in their kicka** supernatural ladies way #booktober

All change brings bad things and good things to replace the bad and good things that were there before. It is natural to look back and say it was better before - but that does not make it true. Different is not worse. It is just different.
