pickThis is a great book. SFF and YA paranormal romance isn't usually my thing, but this is beautifully well written and the protagonist, Karou, is a really engaging character.

pick75/100 I'm not a devoted Holmesian, but I thought this was a delightfully supernatural take on the Holmes & Watson stories. I liked Dr Doyle, a more intelligent and far less bumbling version of Watson, and I have to admit their secret caught me totally by surprise. Crow, the stand for Holmes, was witty and innocent, not nearly as caustic as Holmes could be at times. I hope the author plans a sequel, since the ending ⬇️
pickIf it didn‘t feel like such an obvious and natural conclusion to this volume (despite the fact that I didn‘t guess the ending, even with all of my doubts & uncertainty in place), I‘d be really mad that this ends on a cliffhanger. I despise cliffhangers. But I love Juno Dawson‘s writing. She‘s smart, & soft, & tough in all the right ways. Her plots feel thoroughly storyboarded. I‘m eager to see where Book 3 takes us!
This book is appropriately named.
The main character is gay, a werewolf and I am 3/4 into this read and it is boring!
I haven‘t bailed yet because I just keep thinking, something must be going to happen to move this storyline along … it can‘t be 100% boring the whole way to the end. 🤷♀️
pickI‘ve read a lot of books in August and reviewed none. Finished this one for #riseupreads
Highly recommend!
pickI had almost given up on this series but this installment was so good. Was it Maud as a character? Was it that it was more focussed in its otherworldly supernatural creatures? Was it Helen being awesome? Idk but it was fantastic
pickI could almost see myself being in this book because I love cemeteries and graveyards so much, and I see ‘ghosts‘ too, though they are nothing like the ones in this book. When our main character is asked to help with a case due to her profession, she finds herself breaking all the rules her father taught her and must decide if it is worth finding answers she and others seek.
pickSo I did not think I was going to like this book when I first started reading it but it was a really good read for me and I actually enjoyed it. I am going to start watching the show.
