I heard all the hype about this book and thought it would be good. I was thoroughly disappointed. I skimmed through most of the book, as most of it was about too long and irrelevant/boring conversations. I'm like, get with the action already! To top it off the action was about kidnapping this poo...
3.5 This book was just alright. It centers around a convoluted plan hatched by Marsilia. Supposedly, Marsilia figured out Mercy's part in Andre's death. She had marked Mercy as an enemy. This means that those who associate with her are also targets. After a near brush with a pack mate's death, M...
Another thrilling adventure/mystery in the crazy area of the tri-cities, with Mercedes at the helm, fighting for self and her pack in this fantastical realm.

Ugh. I thought I'd have stopped bawling over the series after Iron Kissed, but NO. Frelling Silver Borne happened and not all of my tears resulted from heartbreak. I detect it also had to do with Sam and Ari, and then the last two chapters with Bran and Mercy and what transpired afterwards.I thin...
I started reading these after needing a fix from finishing all the Jim Butcher Dresden Files books. While I don't think it's quite as awesome as Dresden files in terms of how the world of magic and man are blended so well and in depth, I really did have fun with the Mercy Thompson series. When I ...

There is something so wonderful about Patricia Briggs's writing for this reader. She is able to create a world in which I am completely drawn in, but she writes with such simple elegance.

Lately I’ve been craving some alpha-shifter-romance novels and I stumbled upon my Mercy Thomson shelf. There was a time before my kindle, you know, when I ordered books and never really read them resulting in me hording a full shelf of Patricia Briggs novels that are now morphing into dust catche...
said Heuter as he bit into the piece of half-raw steak on his fork. “That was the creepiest thing I ever saw,” said Leslie, who was eating her salad and not looking at Heuter. Anna couldn’t decide if she was a vegetarian or just didn’t like watching someone eat raw meat. Maybe the visit to the mo...
She lay in the middle of the hayfield in a section, roughly square, that had nothing at all growing in it. The soil was black, and it stained the bottom of my tennis shoes with soot. Someone had burned a chunk of field and put the dead woman in it like the bull’s-eye of a target. “Staged,” I said...
Charles rode in the middle, which wasn’t comfortable for him; his long legs didn’t fit easily anywhere. But better, she thought, than forcing poor Max to squish between virtual strangers. Charles could have driven, of course, but he had just shaken his head when she’d suggested it. At a guess, Ch...
I stepped back and ran my hands over the healing and protection spells that enveloped my babies, Angelina and Evan Jr. The complex incantations were getting a bit frayed around the edges, and I drew on Mother Earth and the forest on the mountainside outback to restore them. Not much power, not en...

I pulled my Sig out of its concealed-carry holster in the small of my back. The Sig Sauer had been a birthday present from my mother. It was a .40, larger caliber than the 9mm I used to carry. I still practiced with the 9mm and the .44 revolver, but the .40 was a subcompact, and it was easier to ...
One of these days she was going to break down and buy boots—if only she didn’t need to eat.Anna laughed and buried her nose in her jacket, trudging the last half mile to her home. It was true that being a werewolf gave her greater strength and endurance, even in human form. But the twelve-hour sh...
