6 posts | 10 read | 7 to read
John Wayne Cleaver hunts demons: they've killed his neighbors, his family, and the girl he loves, but in the end he's always won. Now he works for a secret government kill team, using his gift to hunt and kill as many monsters as he can . . .. . . but the monsters have noticed, and the quiet game of cat and mouse is about to erupt into a full scale supernatural war.John doesn't want the life he's stuck with. He doesn't want the FBI bossing him around, he doesn't want his only friend imprisoned in a mental ward, and he doesn't want to face the terrifying cannibal who calls himself The Hunter. John doesn't want to kill people. But as the song says, you can't always get what you want. John has learned that the hard way; his clothes have the stains to prove it.When John again faces evil, he'll know what he has to do. The Devil's Only Friend is the first book in a brand-new John Wayne Cleaver trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Dan Wells.

Slowly but surely my journal is being taken over by stickers that are misspelled or look misspelled and I oddly love it

#123 of my year & I‘m on a roll again lol it helps that we are on break from zoom school 🥵 I absolutely love this series and have put off reading book 4 because I‘m not ready to let go of John Wayne Cleaver yet 😔 but I‘m excited to see how he‘s doing. #currentlyreading #thedevilsonlyfriend #johncleaverseries #bookfour oh also I‘m listening to A Little Messed Up by June 🖤

Caffeinated_Reader This was by far my favorite out of all of them. I love how badly John wants to understand himself and why he is the way he is. He is genuinely interested in why and how he became so detached and unanchored to the people in his life. Marci was a lighthouse for him although that ended tragically, so even when he found comfort it was short lived. 3y
Caffeinated_Reader Now that his team is gone and it‘s just Brooke and him against the Withered I wonder if he will build an unbreakable bond with her and finally accept that she loves him in her own way. I hope there‘s more books with them. 3y

John Cleaver is back, and I didn‘t realise how much I missed him. The way these books are written is so engaging. I‘ve never read a narrative voice quote like this, and I‘m addicted.
Found it a little slow to start, but it has been YEARS since I read the previous 3 John Cleaver books. Once I got in though, I couldn‘t put it down 👍

“The human race is truly, truly evil.” He paused. “And unimaginably good.” 💕

I‘m just surprised he never realized the bad guy wanted to recruit him. That was my first thought when he says you aren‘t like the others. You learn more about the background of The withered which is interesting.

The series continues to progress, with each book better than the previous.
