Skylar is used to the way people think of him as frightening, mean, and dangerous. Snakes are not the most popular shifters around and the fact he grew up wild doesn't help. He knows the way he's chosen to live alone in the woods only makes things worse, but he didn't think it meant people thought him capable of killing a couple of wolf puppies.

Determined to find the real monster who left them to die, Skylar calls up the only wolf he knows, a man he always wished would see him as more than a snake....

I was surprised to have really liked it. It was very short wish it was longer but still very enjoyable.

Enjoyed it!

I’ve really enjoyed most of Derr’s books and was very willing to give this a try. It was just kind of cringy to read. Too predictable, too trite.

Kind of dumb

Would you consider the audio edition of Backwoods Asylum to be better than the print version?

I own the ebook and that was the first book by Megan Derr that I ever bought and which led to me buying all her other titles. I bought the audiobook because I liked the ebook. Is it better? I'd say it's about even.

What did you like best about this story?

I liked how the story had a fairytale-like element to it. It has a contemporary setting but the characters are shifters. The narrative is easy to listen to and follow, would probably be great to listen to when you're just settling into bed.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Skylar's protectiveness kicked-in because of the puppies being in distress.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Some parts of it made me go 'awwwwwwwwww' just because of the sheer adorableness of the puppies and Skylar.

Nice, sweet short story

Love this story so hard. Audible version is a must have, because the narrator somehow makes a wonderful story even better.

....that sweet southern twang of male strength and kindness was charming. The entire story was a bit fluffy but so dang on charming and endearing. I was left smiling, my heart all beaming in happiness.lol

What a great idea to create a shifter snake and werewolf romance. I wish the story had been longer because I've never come across a shifter snakes story. Skylar's history was interesting to me and I wanted more of it. I loved the inter-species romance. And, I loved when Hansel and Gretel attacked Skylar's love interest pants leg, it was adorable. They were protecting their daddy snake, too cute!

Love Paul Morey's accent as Skylar...

Not bad, I'm not going to return it or anything. The concept of a Snake-Shifter is original and cool. There's an "explanation-gap," so to speak, where too much that's revealed at the end was never alluded to anytime earlier. The following IS NOT a spoiler because it doesn't happen in the story, it just feels similar to other tropes: it's almost akin in feeling to a murder mystery that introduces the villain in the last couple of pages for the first time. I do believe I'm coming off here being overly critical because it's not a plot contradiction or anything and I liked the book. It's just that the ending had a lot of summary about things that were never mentioned in the story so it felt kind of back-filled and stilted. It's a short book for an interesting story so some things have to be glossed over but an extra 15 minutes could have solved all my "complaints." I do put complaints in quotes because I do like the book; I guess this is just an FYI. I hope someone finds this rambling review helpful.

Seemed to be missing parts
