The Last Werewolf | 
pan2.2⭐️ I think I overhyped this one in my own mind because I was so disappointed at the end. While the concept of the story is intriguing, the execution is poorly done in my opinion. The story was super dry and I found it hard to connect with the character with how wordy the author was. Like he was trying to come off intelligent,but came off pretentious instead. this was my #bookspin for #bookspinbingo.
@LibrarianRyan thank you so much… I loved everything. I am so looking forward to reading the tag book… It has been on my list forever. I especially loved receiving one of your books sleeves.#allhallowsreadswap #AHRS
so-soI almost DNFed this one, and if I'd known the last ~1/4 would be written from a female point of view I would have. This particular author's voice speaking from the point of view of a woman gives me the creeps. The first 40% I quite enjoyed, but then the story shifts and is no longer interesting enough for me to put up with the frequent appearance of the "c" word for female anatomy. It becomes a damsel-in-distress tale, which isn't my thing.

For #Werewolf #Scarathlon #PhotoChallenge
Only book on my goodreads list for this theme, and tbh, I doubt I will ever get to it. Reviews by trusted readers do not make it appealing. So I included a sleepy Esther and her blue llama. #DogsofLitsy

panThis book had potential. Main character held my interest as did the plot, the idea of a last werewolf and how he handles that knowledge is intriguing. The authors writing took me out of the story , looking up words, rereading sentences. Yet when describing female anatomy the author resorted to the crudest language! I wanted to know how it ended, I will not move on to the next book in this series.

so-soThis book is pure filth! Not your average Werewolf+Vampire teen drama story, this book is very adult. I was willing to do the series, but have decided not to now, I just don't care enough about the characters.
so-soI worked on this book for 5 months! I feel proud of myself that I didn't DNF it. The characters were lack luster and writing was just OK. I was not crazy about the plot either. ⭐⭐⭐
pick#modernmrsdarcy #mmdchallenge #bookoutsidemycomfortgenre
I've tagged this as horror, but it's pretty mild - I should probably have chosen a Stephen King for this prompt! 5 🌟
#coyotes #timbittunes @Cinfhen @TheKidUpstairs
I hope to get to this book this year for Modern Mrs Darcy's 2019 challenge - I'm using it for book out of my comfort genre zone.
pickI totally enjoyed this book! So fresh, different and ‘in your face violent‘! Very good storytelling!
pickThis was really unique and fun. Scary and dark in some parts and other parts were just entertaining and well written. It ended well and had a great plot and offered something new to the supernatural genre.
My very ambitious TBR for the rest of Sept and Oct. The tagged book is on my kindle, wish me luck! #readinggoals #blameitonlitsy
Author photo discouraged me from getting this. Blurb and Litsy rating were also determining factors.
Thrift store haul. 5 books, $5. Added to my ever-expanding tbr pile 😊
pickThe Last Werewolf is reminiscent of Interview With a Vampire. It is a captivating read.
Breathtaking firework of words keeps me mesmerised.

pickPowerful character with a tragic flaw and a great description make a non stop thriller. I liked it a lot.
Penelope is "going to be a cat for the day" she informed me of this as she started to puuuur and hunker down in her box. Meghan also saved my butt by sending a trick or treat bag because I totally forgot to get one. Check out Marlo Mae with that tail going, she is so happy to have a new toy! Thank you again, you made the whole family happy!!!

❤️The Last Werewolf is not what I expected...Intelligent and literary.
❤️Jacob Tracy wasn't on my radar until a sale... who knew western supernatural fantasy was something I would love so much?
❤️Zebulon is so brilliant, morbid, funny, upsetting, and incredible, I may never get over him.
❤️ I know Achilles gets lots of love, but it's the best thing I have read in a long time and I can't stop talking about it.
bailedI've had this book kicking around my TBR for years. I was so pumped to sit down and read it, and I hate it. I'm bummed, but at least it's off the bookshelf now. I can't see myself ever revisiting this book. 👎🏻
What's worse then having pleurisy? Relapsing! 😢Sorry to be absent but I spent 4 days coughing and sweating. Glad to be mobile again! I loved this literate, snarky, and very randy trilogy of books. #wolves #JuneTunz
#walkingonthemoon #rockinmay so werewolves are influenced by the moon. So kind of fits the prompt? 😂
so-soAt first I was pleasantly surprised by this book. It is literary and has interesting character development, which was not something I expected from a werewolf novel. But, after the love interest came into the picture the writing started to feel more contrived than literary (not to mention the excessive discussion of buttholes). I'm excited to dig into my other library picks though!
so-soI just finished audio-booking this one; maybe the tone was put in place by the reader. This book was so bleak and apathetic that I had a matching emotional response. The only points that weren't depressingly bleak, were unexpected manic phases of the main character. The book had several peaks and none of them were very compelling. At the end - no pay off and the acknowledgement that this book is just a prologue to book 2 in the series.
bailedEh, maybe one day I'll come back to this, but right now I'm not feeling what this werewolf is laying down.
I see you there, hiding on my disorganized shelf next to Narnia...The Last Werewolf being part of another series I still need to finish!
This is the look on my face when my fave book podcast answers my recommendation question. Thanks @jennirl and Amanda Nelson for making my commute exciting. (P.S. She recommended Sabriel to me last weekend.) #bookriot #getbooked
Werewolves? Check. Vampires? Check. Sexy sex? Double-check and re-checked. But also, it's just a great story with strongly developed characters.

I haven't read The Last Werewolf yet, but I'll get to it one day 😉
Nice, gloomy fall day for a werewolf story and a puzzle. #1000pieces #whatwasithinking #spookyOctober #halloweencountdown #frightfest #bookphotochallenge #octoberphotochallenge
I keep trying to read this. Tough prose. Tough metaphors. Abundant buttsex. When does it get exciting?
