Bored Gay Werewolf
Bored Gay Werewolf: "An ungodly joy" Attitude Magazine | Tony Santorella
8 posts | 4 read | 6 to read
Brian, an aimless slacker in his twenties, works double shifts at his waiter job, never cleans his apartment and gets black-out drunk with his restaurant comrades, Nik and Darby. He's been struggling to manage his transition to adulthood almost as much as his monthly transitions to a werewolf. Really, he is not great at the whole werewolf thing, and his recent murderous slip-ups have caught the attention of Tyler, a Millennial were-entrepreneur determined to explore exponential growth strategies in the mythological wellness market. Tyler has got a plan and he wants Brian to be part of it, and weirdly his brand of self-help punditry actually encourages Brian to shape up and to stop accidently marking out bad tippers at the restaurant as potential monthly victims. But as Brian gets closer to Tyler's pack and drifts further away from Nik and Darby, he realises that Tyler's expansion plans are much more nefarious than a little lupine enlightenment... Big-hearted, goofy, anarchic and funny, Bored Gay Werewolf is a smart take on the doomsday logic of late capitalism and the complicated meeting point of masculinity and sexuality. More than that, though, and like Scooby Doo with Grindr or Stranger Things with sex and ennui, it's a buddy novel about finding your pack, the power of friendship, and learning how to be comfortable in your own, shaggy werewolf pelt

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! 😉
