Rafael | 
pickI‘ve seen some people refer to this a a novella. It is not, but it is TINY compared to the other Anita Blake‘s. In under 250 pages we got some solid building to the wererat and hyena cultures, some blast from the past friends and foes and a solid amount of action and creative violence.
Much less wasted time, no arguing inconsequential things for endless chapters, minimal wedding talk, I don‘t even think she talked about her boobs. Editing = wow

🌟 I now realize that the 3 physical books I read in July was all were set in the 1990s which I find to be an odd coincidence as 2 were recent releases (“Survive the Night” & “Southern Book Club..”). “Wild” was my favorite of the month, I would consider it a 5 star read, which I did not expect and had entirely added to my July reads as filler.

I have done nothing but move this book room to room in the past 3 days between scrolling the socials and watching Graceland. This is my accountability post, I‘m going to try to make some headway!
1. Anita Blake Vampire Hunter where I have read 27/28 books (the tagged book is the one I haven‘t read yet)
2. Not intentionally.
3. I like series that have switching protagonists, really shows the authors insight into where the other characters are coming from when done well. But I don‘t read a lot of series that do that. So either.

so-soFeb 21 - urban fantasy / endless series / I don‘t care what anyone thinks I like this genre- omg the therapy talk is less and the story existed... finally!! First time in many books (years) that I didn‘t hate it or feel it was a total waste of time. There is hope and wondering where it‘s going to go from here
so-soBk6 of February is done! And it wasn‘t all smut! It was definitely still there, plus her annoying habit of repeating info that, if you‘re still reading her, you know by now. Which is why it‘s a so-so for me, only the fact it had more about the wererats kingdom saved it from being a pan. #PickYourPoison #ShapeShiftingCharacter #Pageathon #FinishingTheSeries2021 #SeriesRead2021 #PennyPerPage #258cents #StackingTheSeries #BookishBingo #Under280pgs
This novella turned up on my doorstep today so of course I had to drop what I was reading to pick it up! I‘m hopeful so far it‘s not all smut, but we shall see. I keep buying every book she releases only to be disappointed once again, vow never to buy another then cave the minute I see it on the Coming Soon lists. What can I say, I‘m an eternal optimist!
