Welcome to Litsy!

I always like using short stories to find new authors I like.

I‘m a day behind! 🤭

Bad Moon Rising brought to mind werewolves and therefore the world of Mercy Thompson, a coyote shifter living with werewolves.

1. I didn‘t do anything because covid (cases have been on the rise here). But I did get a photo of the moon rising with Venus showing off in the upper right corner. And I did a couple of puzzles over the weekend, including Rebel Girls.
2. Paranormal urban fantasy

Short stories from Mercy‘s world. Loved hearing some stories from other characters, like Warren & Ben. I hope she writes more.

And now my reread is complete until the next books come out. 🖤

Alpha's love for her is so pure

Breakfast, book and tea :) in the sun #bookandtea

Here's my Mercy Thompson stash atm. I've been slowly accumulating volumes for awhile, but I haven't read any yet because they seem bingeworthy and I wanted to have at least 1-5 on hand. It must be kismet that @CatLass007 is holding a #MercyThompsonGiveaway for books 4-8! I'd love to win, so Mercy and her tramp stamp can suckerpunch my winter blues away. Thanks for the opportunity, @CatLass007 ! 😁

Seeing @CatLass007 post about Shifting Shadows made me want to re-read so I picked up the story about Thomas and Margaret as well as Fire Touched. With a very large cup of coffee, this is a good way to spend a rainy morning before heading to work.

Patricia Briggs is a fine writer who develops plot and characters equally well. Even the supporting characters in the world of Mercy Thompson are fully realized, as is evidenced by this book of short stories. ✨✨✨✨✨

All the Mercyverse novellas and short stories written up to 2014 plus a couple of cut scenes from the novels. We get Bran and Samuel (and Ariana) in the early days. There's the story of how Charles and Anna met, how Moira and Tom met, a couple of vampire stories, Warren and Kyle, background on Ben, even Asil the Moor (yay!), and Mercy goes ghost busting. Great collection for fans of both Mercy Thompson and of the Alpha&Omega series.

In the category of #GemsFromTheStacks comes this beauty. Actual name of the book? Spectral Images by Terrance Craddock. It did not appear in the Litsy catalog, hence the link to Shifting Shadows.

What better pick for today's #Booktober challenge, than #ShortStories 📚that go bump in the night?👻 I loved to read and share the #ScaryStories series as a kid, year-round! My favorite stories from Hamilton are from #StrangeCandy. #ShiftingShadows is by far my absolute favorite short story collection! Each story adds depth to the Mercyverse, with a deeper look into characters you've met and introducing fantastic new characters! 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃/5

Needing a break from my #bookclub book. Short stories from a favorite series? Yes please!! #readandlove #shortstoriesrock

I love these Mercy Thompson world stories. These short stories fill in the gaps nicely with some of the other characters in the Alpha and Omega and Mercy novels. I'm a sucker for a werewolf - I cannot lie.

I'll be speed reading this this weekend - the library wants it back for someone else! How dare they!
