No curse words, no sexual displays, high school innocence

The story was such a delight. Talk about running a business, homecoming, light drama, some gossiping, heartfelt love, acceptance, coming of age, all that jazz all rolled up into one beautiful book. I’m not the type of person to request this, but I would love to see some more fanart of these two individuals. For those that are avoiding the topic, there is no instance of rape- which I’ve noticed has been a reoccurring theme in a lot of young adult romcom books.

Story
Ox was 23 when murder came to town and tore a hole in his head and heart. The boy chased after the monster with revenge in his blood red eyes, leaving Ox behind to pick up the pieces. It's been three years since that fateful day and the boy is back. Except now he's a man, and Ox can no longer ignore the song that howls between them.

Interesting writing choice, good world building.

I've read a couple bad werewolf love stories but omg wolfsong does it right. A good chunk is built around world building (limited but thoughtful) to immerse yourself and not get pulled out by any sudden “weirdness". I listened to the audio book and when I thought we hit the finale there were 7 more hours left and I'm like OMG!
Big payoff!

Story
A trip to the grocery store changed my life. That's where I bumped into my "straight" coworker and good friend, Jake Perez. I decided to invite him to my book club night, not realizing the chain of events that invite would kick off. Immediately our chemistry became too explosive, making our friendship and work relationship complicated. That same night, a bloody package addressed to me lands on my doorstep. Falling for Jake was never in the plans—then again neither was being targeted by a dangerous stalker. This was going to be interesting.

To follow in the reading club rules: take a shot for every time you ran into the work cock. Hint, one person says it more than the other (interesting writing style), Next take a shot for every time the word “f**k” was used frivolously… I’d be out on the floor.
I skipped the last two chapters, I had enough. They knew who it was before the person shows up in the end.
Also I was immediately pulled out of the fantasy when I realized these two are younger then me owning Teslas and one of them purchasing an Audi as if it were a weekend chore. Idk… I’d like it if they struggled with anything other than their love life’s and the stalker.

Story
Max Remus couldn't care less about finding his mate—unlike the rest of his fate-obsessed pack. He totally prefers hanging with his bestie, eating his dad's steak sandwiches, and drawing in his trusty sketchbook. But all that is about to change at the Blue Moon Festival—a summer camp where Elite Pack wolves go to find their mates. The festival is a rite of passage for every teen werewolf, and this year's festival will be one to howl home about. The alpha's son, Jasper Apollo, is attending for the first time.

This needs a happy ending or a part 2.

I love interest is too much of a one note, the main character is on a rollercoaster of emotions. The funny thing is, the side characters have more going on then these two boys. I’d much want to hear what happens to Katie’s potential “throuple” relationship.

Story
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the 10th annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to out charm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low.

What a great prequel!!

Loved Santino’s narration — Makes sense to have a male voice play a male characters perspective. Loved the voice acting. I noticed near the end the sound quality was crackling. Not sure if that was the app or the actual recording,
Story is such a great way to weave into the main story line. My only questions is what happened between Snow and Tigris’ relationship.
