This is a somewhat interesting collection of superstitions about lycanthropy that kinda lost track of itself partway through and started being a sort of proto-true crime about people who committed terrible crimes, tenuously linking that to lycanthropy via mental illness.

The first part was best.

3✨ The second book in this series follows different characters while checking in with our previous vampire like couple. We learn more about the world and the people in it, but learn the more werewolf side of this world. I felt more steam punk in this one than the first. I think I liked it a bit mrore than the first book as well.

I thought this was the final book 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩

But, that disappointment aside… I loved the intergalactic episode of the Bachelor and all the behind the scenes drama Dina gets into.

This book opens with one of my favorite passages ever. It's a short story all on it's own.

“You‘ve been standing here staring at that flower shop for fifteen minutes. So is it for her birthday or anniversary, or are you making up for a fight? Because I‘ve been married for thirty-two years, and believe me, there are different bouquets for different occasions.”

(cont)

random_michelle ...
“I don‘t know his favorite flower.” She sucked her teeth mock disapprovingly. “I‘m not sure he even has one,” Cooper added defensively. “What about birthday?”

“Something that goes with the gift you got him because you better not just be walking in with some lousy flowers. So which is it?”

(cont)

random_michelle Cooper laughed. “What if I want to get him some flowers just because?”

She raised an eyebrow and sniffed. “Uh-huh, right. You-fucked-up-flowers it is, then.”
...
“What kind of flowers for just because?”

“That depends on just because what. Just because you love him?”

Cooper coughed. “Oh, well. Let‘s not get crazy. What are my other options?”

random_michelle She snorted. “Like that, is it? You sound like my second husband, Gary. He couldn‘t handle looking like he cared either. A man like that gives daisies. Dead by the end of the work week. Don‘t be a daisy man, friend.”

“I thought you said you‘ve been married for thirty-two years.”

“And I was. Just not to the same man or for consecutive sentences.” She cackled.

More rereads of another series I utterly adore.

It's single-point of view, which is perfect for the arc across the books. Not only does Cooper change, but you watch how he views Park change as well. In the 1st book he thinks Park is all but perfect. By the end of the 2nd, we see Cooper realize Park is also flawed, but it helps rather than hurts their relationship.

Also, we get a fantastic mental health arc.

I‘ve liked some of Klune‘s books and liked the premise of this, but ultimately it was not for me. As others have mentioned, it is repetitive and the central relationship was too problematic for me. Also, I found myself irritated by some of the writing. I probably should have bailed.

I'd listened to a few of these stories before but they work much better as a collection, with the continuing themes of Jem's search for the lost Herondale, and his eternal love for Tessa and Will. Also there are two extra stories only in the print version! It's very much NOT an entrance into the series, but some enjoyable fan service as well as background info for future series.

Crinoline_Laphroaig My readalong has stalled a bit. I'm about to start City of Heavenly Fire. 2w
willaful @Crinoline_Laphroaig I'm not sure what to read next. I have the Lost Book of the White but a lot of the stories in this were after the events of the Lady Midnight series, so maybe I should have another whack at that. 2w
Crinoline_Laphroaig @willaful I love the Lost Book of the White. It's such a fun romp. But yeah there's one specific plot point I can think of that you need to have read Queen of Air and Darkness or it will be a Spoiler. 2w
willaful @Crinoline_Laphroaig I think the Shadow Market spoiled me for everything already. 2w
