This was an interesting exploration of toxic masculinity.
I might not be the right audience for this book. It's well written and the pacing is good. I needed more plot or something. I was often bored as I read.

Bored Gay Werewolf is absolutely hair-larious and pawsitively charming in every way (I'm going to stop with the cringey werewolf puns now, I promise!). Reminiscent of Palahnuick's Fight Club with a mystical twist, Santorella pens a tale of an aimless werewolf who gets caught up in a lycanthropic pyramid scheme built on the foundation of toxic masculinity, misogyny and capitalism which alters the trajectory of his life. (1/2).
I was off today since I worked all last weekend! Luckily it was such a beautiful day I got to spend it reading at the park! 🌿📖
I was sitting on a bench and an old guy walked past and asked what I was reading. Without a word I flipped the book around and showed him the cover. 🐺🏳️🌈 He gave me a disappointed look and walked away. 🤣😂 Maybe he thought I was reading the bible?! 🤭💕
Whoo-hoooooo! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 Nothing makes a long day better than some book mail! I ordered them last week and they arrived today! I'm super excited about both of these! 💕📚 I can't stop chuckling over the tagged book's title! 🤭
Thank you so so SO much for the gift card, Scott! 🥰 @vivastory
Let's play review catchup!
It took me long enough to get into this one that I considered DNFing despite the spectacular title, but the beginning was, in fact, somewhat boring. But the story picks up once Brian realizes his new werewolf life coach is no good. At that point it got a lot more interesting and really turned around for me. Basically a college student turned werewolf working as a batista gets suckered into a self help pyramid scheme.
Brian works as a waiter and roams a local park one night a month as a werewolf. Then he meets another werewolf with a disturbing vision of what being a werewolf means.
It was light on the gore and had some amusing moments. If I came across a freebie by the author or it was included in one of my subscriptions, I'd read it but I wouldn't actively search for more books by him or pay out good money for it.
I wish this had been funnier than it actually was, but I still enjoyed this story which is really more about friendship and finding your tribe or pack than anything else. I also finished The Lost Soul of the City — the first book in the second “season” of Dean Koontz‘s Nameless series. It was a fine story, but I liked the first season better. If you have Kindle Unlimited, this series is available there. Started Happy Place for my #audiowalk.
What our bored, gay werewolf has gotten himself into is becoming increasingly sinister. I hope he can extricate himself from it. #audiowalk
We drove down to the beach today with Mr. Mercedes for company. A lot of the Gulf Island National Seashore in FL was blocked off to cars and even to walkers. I hope this means they are going to start construction on areas that were damaged by hurricanes about 2 years ago. Brian has probably made a bad decision in my book, but he shouldn‘t be bored anymore! #audiowalk
I wasn‘t in the mood for the book I was listening to, and I‘m always up for a good werewolf story, so thought I‘d check this one out. #audiowalk
I‘ve got 99 problems and the 99p kindle deals is DEFINITELY one. This is just todays purchases. At this point I probably have more books on my kindle then I can read in a lifetime! Bored Gay Werewolf is by far my favorite title of this bunch!
Brian is a bit hopeless but in a relatable kind of way and so when he slowly gets sucked into what is essentially a pyramid scheme by the wealthy (jerk) Tyler (also a werewolf) by way of a self improvement scheme - you find yourself hoping he can extract himself from the situation…
Throw in some great friends - that he tries to keep in the dark about his condition & before you know it, the work day is mostly done! 😉
