    There is a lot of anxiety in one werewolf here. The Jewish culture is prominently represented in the food and kibbutz, which I like, but the stereotypical guilt tripping of our MC (purposeful or just perceived?) I could probably do with less of.

    I did like this one better than the first. These are good, low-energy palate cleansers. I will probably read the ones I have in my possession, but not buy additional releases.

    I can see why this book got quite a bit of hype when it came out, but reading it now I didn't find it to be super special amongst its peers. There's objectively nothing wrong with it and it had some creative takes for the time, but the techniques in play are more common now which robs this book of what made it special. Good, not great.

    A beautiful Indigenous-centered children's book with information on the legacy and heritage associated with fry bread. Includes adult-friendly more detailed footnotes after the conclusion of the story.

    This has been my favorite in this series so far. Lots of content warnings. A thoughtfully handled DID system MC and lots of religious cult trauma for everyone. Seeing Eli build different types of relationships with each of the alters in Shepherd's system felt right and was welcome. Looking forward to Eli interacting further with the rest of the Laskin family.

    This book carries the spirit of the Stalking Jack the Ripper series slightly aged up for a more new adult audience. I love the banter between Stoker and Veronica and the layers of secrets to uncover. I will certainly continue the series.
