Stolen from the internet - not directly connected to tagged book
pickUrban fantasy meets supernatural romance in this series that started in 2010. It feels a bit like Twilight for grown ups, repressive gender norms & all. (Actually worse with the gender norms. According to the mc "women's liberation" still hasn't gotten to the werewolves. Yoiks.) Despite that I find myself hooked? It's a compelling story, and I want to see where it goes. Basically a coyote shifter among werewolves and lots of supernatural intrigue.
pickLast of my catch-up reviews for this week.
Book 2 in the Mercy Thompson series. It started off a bit slow with some repetitive info from book 1 (I understand this is necessary, but in this case it slowed down the beginning). However once our Mercy got roped into the vampire‘s problem it picked up. We find out more about the vampire seethe and how it works. We also got a bit more about Mercy‘s walker powers & some werewolf politics of course.

I forgot how much of a comfort read this is for me. It makes me more excited than I already was to reread the series. I think my favorite part of this first book is how Mercy stumbles into this role we see for her throughout the series just because she‘s trying to be a good person and not judging people based on the type of creature they are. And the discovery of just how powerful Walkers can be is only just starting. #reread
pickI recently discovered graphic audiobooks in the last year. Now I‘m working through my old favourites (like this one) as well as new finds
What do you think of Graphic Audio “a movie in your mind”??
October had some good but not great books & so my #12BooksOf2024 ended up being this 7th book in a paranormal romance series I enjoy.🤷🏻♀️ Now November was a great reading month & it will be a struggle to pick a favorite.
Honorable Mentions include: Vampires of El Norte (audiobook), So Hungry
pickThis one was a fun, magical rom-com read. It even has a FMC who is a fire breathing unicorn. 🦄 fun 3.5 🌟 read.

I really liked this author‘s Undead & Unwed series so I was excited to read this but there‘s too much going on. Were-bear detective/social workers trying to stop trafficking of were-kids. The FMC‘s dialogue & internal narration was chaotic, & very bubbly for the surrounding plot. The love interests have made no moves towards eachother yet, & I don‘t care if they do which doesn‘t bode well for the rest of the book. #bye
pickI was really enjoying this one - Mercy trying her best to investigate the murder that landed her friend, Zee in jail, right up until Mercy is magically coerced and the aftermath of that scene. This is as far as I got when I first read these back in the late 00s… I do wonder if that was why but none of this story felt familiar to me so I‘ll never know for sure.
