Malveria is deff. a good comic relief in the book.

I would suggest to read them in order, to understand the conflicts of the family, but it's not necessary.

I just finished the book and am anticipating another one.
I woul dlove to see is Sarapen comes back, maybe fall in love with Dominil (sp?) or vise versa....huh huh?

it would be interesting to see the "fairie" realm get more involved.

Even though I didn't love LONELY WEREWOLF GIRL as much as the rest of the world did, I find that I really want to read this. I've been having odd Martin Millar cravings since I learned of its existence.

My copy of Lonely Wolfgirl was that awful first print, now known for its many typos so I was kind of distracted when reading it. I'm with you on Malveria being one of the best characters though and the way she shows her softer side sometimes is disconcerting, but beautiful.

I hope there's less castle time in this one, because I just wanted to spend all my time with the werewolves living among humans and everytime they returned to the scheming meetings in the castle I found myself drifting. Is Marcus back (I know, evil and a cad, but devilishly attractive cross dressing werewolves are hard to dislike entirely). It would be awesome if there was a third book where Kalix saw the new Runaways film...

Debi: Lonely Werewolf Girl is actually a pretty quick read despite its size. The chapters are short and you always find yourself thinking you can read just one more :P Anyway, I've no doubt that Annie (and you!) would enjoy this one :)

Zibilee: Yes, make sure you do borrow it!

Jill: Exactly :D

Emidy: I don't much care about werewolves one way or the other, but the thing with these books is that it doesn't matter that they're werewolves - the characters are just... people.

Care: Do!

Rhinoa: These are definitely right up your alley :)

Iliana: It's different from anything else out there, that's for sure.

Colleen: You took the words out of my mouth re: Lonely Werewolf Girl. It doesn't feel like a long book at all. And yes - loved all the pop culture references!

Jenny: Decembrius, I think? I barely remembered him at all from the first book, so I don't think he made much of an impression on me then. But he was great here, yes.

Kathleen: Only that I *do* think is good, promise ;)

Amy: I promise you won't be if you do, though! Millar really makes all the subplots work.

Carrie: Do - and then you'll want more :P

ibeeeg: You're most welcome! They're great fun :)

Wow..what a great review! I really like how you explained so well that reading the first book will put everything in order...the second book will make sense. This book sounds like a book for me especially when I read your last paragraph. I am going to search out the first book. I am psyched! Thanks for putting these books on my radar...my tbr list! :)

2010-08-17T01:30:19.909+01:00

You always make everything sound so good. I must have pages of books that I have on my TBR because of your recommendations. I am off the library tonight in search of something by Diana Wynne Jones. I'm hoping to find something on the shelves there!

2010-08-16T23:01:56.762+01:00

I was surprised at how much I liked--ack, I can't think of his name! The werewolf with the crush on Kalix. That whole thing cracked me up, and I cannot wait for the next book to be written to see what will happen with that. Actually to see what will happen with all sorts of things...I am very very pleased by the implication that another sequel is forthcoming. :D

2010-08-16T21:15:24.544+01:00

It totally rocks - just finished it and loved it. Yes, you do have to read them in order but although LONELY is a big book it flies by, promise.

Where else do you get name dropping of VOGUE, SABRINA THE TEENAGE WITCH and werewolves ripping each others' arms off? Seriously. You can't beat it for smart and fun!

2010-08-16T20:54:49.294+01:00

Thank you for the reminder to pick up the first book. I remember reading about that one a while back and forgot. It sounds like a good premise and something slightly different - well, especially if I want something in the fantasy are but not about vamps :)

2010-08-16T20:21:48.872+01:00

This is now the second glowing review I have read of this. I really must read the first book as I loved Good Fairies and think these will appeal to me even more.

Wonderful review! You know, from experience, I never really enjoyed books with werewolves. After reading your review, though, I'd seriously consider picking this one up! The characters sound excellent, and the plot is really cool.

2010-08-16T14:21:43.754+01:00

These books have been getting such good reviews. But you are not the only one to advise reading them in order. I don't mind - it means if I like it, there is another one ready to go for me!

2010-08-16T14:11:52.398+01:00

I think the fact that this series continues to be good, and also that you would happily read a hundred of these books back to back speak a lot to the good qualities of this story. I am going to have to check this out because I think that both of my teenage kids would love it, and I could borrow it from them as well!

2010-08-16T12:01:44.594+01:00

The Lonely Werewolf Girl is one of those books I just feel certain I'll adore, and yet am reluctant to start simply because it's so long and I know it will take me forever to read. And yes, I know that is about the dumbest reason I can think of for not reading a book. :( I'm glad to hear you enjoyed this one every bit as much as the first. I just might have to surprise Annie with it...she just read Lonely Werewolf Girl and absolutely loved it!
