Welcome to Litsy!

Patricia Briggs has a really compelling way of telling a story that I really appreciate — and this was no exception. An extension of the Mercy Thompson universe, this story hits the ground running and never really slows down. Werewolf politics, ancient history, dark witches, mysterious murders — it‘s all a rollercoaster that comes to a relatively satisfying conclusion. Will definitely read more in this series.

I've been (re)listening to Patricia Brigg's Alpha & Omega series, narrated by Holter Graham. So far: Cry Wolf, Hunting Ground, Dead Heat, and Fair Game.

I think Dead Heat is my fav of the series, with Fair Game a close second. The background story arcs of politics and the supernatural are fascinating.

#ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove2024 I am loving my relisten of #MercyThompson and #Alpha&Omega! I remembered the events of this book but not that they all occurred in the same book. The characters and the universe created by Patricia Briggs are marvelous. I recommend both series because they exist in the same universe.

Soooo happy to have this series now that I finished all of Mercy‘s book. Love Anna and Charles dynamic together and getting see more of Bran and Charles with their on POV was such a treat. Very excited to binge this series 🙂

Beach + book = 😍

I haven‘t read the Mercy Thompson series, but it didn‘t seem to cause me any issues. They reference Mercy but I wasn‘t confused or lost.

This starts right where the novella left off. Charles is shot and his dad brings him and Anna home to Montana. She‘s introduced to the pack and helps Charles handle a rogue werewolf in the mountains.

I really liked this book (except for the issue at the beginning) and will continue the series.

@Andrew65 #24in4 I ended up with 14 hours, 45 minutes which is close to my personal record.
I knew from having read other books in the series that certain things wouldn't happen. I loved learning more of Asil's history and it makes why he's such a curmudgeon more understandable. I still don't like Leah and probably never will.

I watched MIB I & II and then started the tagged audiobook while working on this puzzle. This is a Ravensburger escape puzzle—The Witch‘s Kitchen.

I love Mercy a slight bit more, but I enjoy this series too. Anna & Charles make a good team. And I love how it‘s in the same world as Mercy.

Book 26 of the year

Another one I don't specifically remember. But I like the rest of this series so it gets the benifits of the doubt in my rating.

I got up on the wrong foot today. The radio said it's not my fault though, there's a "Föhnwind", a warm wind coming down the mountains, and us Bavarians tend to be grumpy people anyway ?
So now I'll have hot chocolate, gingerbread cookies (my mum made them) and a good book. Let's see if that gets me over the grumpiness

I chose the so-so option on this book because it seemed repetitive at times. Other than that it‘s a pretty good book.

Book 53 of the year finished July 9, audio

I really enjoyed this. It definitely felt like I was being dropped into the middle of an already established world, which was disorienting and some parts were a bit hard to follow. But it wasn't bad enough for me to drop it from a Pick to a So-so, but if there was an option in between I'd definitely select that one.

This was so much not for me that I even don't want to enumerate all the reasons for it. Enough to say that I won't be following this series even if I got the first three books quite cheap in a library sale.😒😥

I got these three in the library sale for 20 cents each. Jackpot! #libraryhaul

Taking a wee break from Mercy's misadventures to visit Charles and Anna. Really enjoying their story arc so far, however, I was pretty annoyed that the ending of the graphic novel verison of Cry Wolf was changed. It was like, "we're running out of pages, take this out and make everything work out right away and everyone is happy!" ?

Anne is so pure!

Read a lot of good things about this series but was let down by the first book. I didn't read the mercy thompson series and so felt out of the loop on the background of the world. There also were major events and plot that seemed to have taken place already; I kept checking that this was the first book which it was - very disorienting. Not compelling enough to keep reading

Anna is a strong character. To go through what she did and not have any hatred or sustain for men is amazing. That she still has her sweet and calming nature is proof of her strength.

Thanks for the chance at this #giveaway @Endowarrior21

If I had to pick, my favorite book of all time is probably Cry Wolf. Great start to a great series with wonderful characters.

I bought this small mountain of books from my library book sale more years than I care to admit ago, and only read 3 from it. 😣

Enjoyable read~ there is a novella before book one that gives some background info. Otherwise you‘ll be confused for the first 2-3 chapters~ Overall a quick and fun read & I enjoyed the magic system!

Comfort reading on this snowy day.

Totally wrapped up in this one today. Probably will finish it in a hour or so!

I can't get enough of #PatriciaBriggs' wolves! 4 Books into my Mercy/Anna reread and enjoying every single page! To me, no one does UF better!

Double challenge points!

Question-Do you think werewolves moult? 🤔

Although not you traditional romance, this novel was one that kept me hooked. For those of you interested in reading this, be sure to read the prequel from the "On The Prowl" bundle. It can be read without, it just gives you a better understanding of what happened and who was the true villain towards Anna. I'm interested in seeing her heal even more and become more trusting of the characters around her.

Maybe I was a little under-ambitious with my reading challenge this year....

As I'm back in Patricia Briggs' world I decided to make a bookmark to help me remember the order. Can this world really exist? I would say yes to a werewolf mate 😍😉.

I was in the mood for a werewolf story.

this is my first patricia briggs novel and I enjoyed it. the world she made was interesting. I'll definitely check out the rest of the series and most probably the mercy thompson books too. 😁

I was looking for a light read and I got it. This was decent, although I do prefer her Mercy Thompson series. I love her writing! There are no unnecessary repetitive phrases or adverbs, which is one of my biggest pet peeves. Does anyone have any recommendations for adult fantasy like this? I like the main characters to be older than teens and at having a harder time finding some.

Bit of advice is to read the prequel book Alpha & Omega is it helps set up this book, and make it a little easy to understand.

Interesting take on the werewolf world, especially with the raking and the role of the Omega in a pack. I don't want to give an spoiler but I will say there was a nice twist in the book that made me read the book into the night to finish it.

Sometimes I have the urge to conquer large parts of Europe.

Spring Term begins tomorrow. So tonight, we escape reality just a bit.

The pack always sounds so nice to be a part of. ❤️

I love this author. She just writes such beautiful relationships between all her characters. Filled with action and a very sweet romance between Anna and Charles.
Reading the anthology Shifting Shadows before this book however, helped massively as it gave me background to major plot points I might have ordinarily missed!

#bookisholympics #bookthree #packlife

This book is so good and I'm struggling to concentrate on work because I just want to keep reading!
Damn you Charles and Anna!

#bookisholympics #werewolves

Carrying on with Patricia Briggs for book three of #bookisholympics
Love the Mercy Thompson books, but this will be my first foray into the Alpha and Omega series ☺️
307 pages.

I come back to this series over and over. Werewolves and romance, cheesy but so fun. #spinecrackersbookclub #augustofpages #day2
