Love all of her books! 🖤🐺

Friendly warning: if you love this series in general, and this instalment in particular, you might want to consider stepping back a bit. This is going to hurt. But hey, I'm kind-hearted and compassionate and understanding and stuff, so I promise to try and make this as painless as possible. What? Don't believe me? Oh, good.Just so you know: if it hadn't been for the Freaking MacHalo TBR Cleaning Challenge of Doom and Destruction (FMTCCoDaD™), I would have DNFed the shrimp out of this one before

“Identity was partly heritage, partly upbringing, but mostly the choices you make in life."There’s a few things that making reading life a little glum, and one of those things is being excited to read a well-loved book by the genre community only to find out that, for irritating reasons, you have absolutely no idea where the other readers are coming from with their devotion.That’s what happened to me with Cry Wolf, the first book in the Alpha & Omega series. I’ve been reading the Mercy Thompson

When I first started this book - it read like a second book in a series, but I checked online and it said "Book 1" but as I kept reading I knew I was missing something so I looked a bit deeper - there is a short story titled "Alpha and Omegas" that is really the first story of this series. It's in the book "On the Prowl" by a number of authors. After I read the short story, I returned to the book. I liked seeing more of the world Patricia Briggs created with her Mercy Thompson series - she fo...

3.5 stars. I'm still grumpy about the fact that you need to go dig up a Briggs novella, Alpha and Omega, in a separately published book, On the Prowl, to read the (pretty much necessary) first part of this story. I would be even grumpier if my library hadn't happened to have a copy of On the Prowl. I also got a little impatient with Anna, our main character and an "Omega werewolf," although you need to cut her some slack because of the events in the Alpha and Omega novella. But the overall story...

Cry Wolf is the 1st book in Patricia Briggs Alpha and Omega Series, which concentrates on Charles Conrick, who we met previously in the her Mercy Thompson Series.This also is the start of Charles, the only true born werewolf and son of the Marok and Anna Latham, turned werewolf against her will…Whilst on a mission for his father to track down a rogue wolf, he’s asked to find Anna and bring her back to their pack.Anna Latham has suffered physical and mental abuse by the members and the leader of

I guess I'm continuing with my parallel dates from 2018. Re-read for the 3rd time February 14th, 2021 and loved it all over again! Witches are flipping scary, and they seem to be playing a big role in both the Mercy Thompson series and Alpha and Omega with some overlap. Re-read February 14th 2018. Even better the 2nd time around!4.5 Stars

As much as I love Mercy Thompson and her world, I absolutely love the change to third person! I think it suits Briggs much more and the fact that she has more romance in this series makes it all the more better! I really enjoyed reading from Anna and Charles’ perspective. It gives us a look into a newly developed bond and there are just so many precious moments between the two! The romantic aspects of the story really lured me in. I couldn’t get enough of them when they’re together!Anna is such

Before reading Cry Wolf, PLEASE make sure to read the novella Alpha & Omega! It functions as #0.5 in this series and is absolutely crucial to the beginning of the series. “Tis the gift to be gentle, ’tis the gift to be fair,’Tis the gift to wake and breathe the morning air,To walk every day in the path that we choose,Is the gift that we pray we will never never lose.” After reading a couple of novels, a few novellas, and a graphic novel by Patricia Briggs, Cry Wolf was what sealed the deal

Sale Alert: Currently the limited time deal on Amazon 10Aug21 $0.99This review was originally posted on Books of My Heart4.5 heartsI’ve been in a bit of a book slump.  I’ve been so caught up in what is going on in the world that it is really hard to find anything else that can hold my interest for even just a little while.  This is the worst it has ever been for me.  My solution was to take an author I have really loved and read another series written by them.  I am all up to date on the Mercy

Audio reread 2019 Enjoyed this much more after having read the prequel novel, the plot makes more sense. I had a hard time following it the first time around but it made more sense this time. Rating upgraded from 3 to 4 stars.------------------------------------------------------------------So, this was wonderful until about halfway through to Chapter 9 where it just went all over the place. I still liked it, but Briggs has produced much better work than this one. I ended up skimming a lot in t

Reviewed by: Rabid Reads.Before you say anything, I KNOW. Any werewolf nut worth their salt should be up to date on all things Patricia Briggs. Well, this is me fixing it, ok? The delay actually worked out in my favour because I tackled the SHIFTING SHADOWS anthology prior to this audiobook, and it contained this series’ prequel which really helped to put this story into context, and as a result I avoided the whole lost feeling that many readers experienced. That point aside, I’m still kicking m...

I don't know how popular completos is in America, only that nobody has heard of it here in Australia except those of us who are tight with the ever-growing Chile population.Basically, Completos is madness in a bun.[image error]Sweet, sweet madness...It's a hotdog with guacamole, tomato, mayonnaise, mustard and sauerkraut.See what I mean? Madness! But a good, delicious kind of madness.Well, Cry Wolf is kind of like Completos only not quite as awesome.It's a good book, enjoyable, interesting, nice...
