Narration Supposing Books Kitty and the Midnight Hour (Kitty Norville #1)
If you hate special snowflakes who are always so good at everything, and so strong, and have awesome powers ... If you want to read a story where the "hero" is a weak, submissive, powerless lackey.. If you are tired of reading shifter books about the alpha who is noble, strong, and kind.. And, maybe, for once, you would like to read the story of the loser of a werewolf pack..Have I ever found the book for you!
Kitty sucks. She is a complete coward who is constantly whining (literally - like a dog whines), cowering, shaking in fear, and hiding behind someone stronger than herself. She is the lowest pup on the totem pole and is super excited when the alpha of the pack rapes her after beating her up because she is so happy to have his attention. She also gives him half of every paycheck because he doesn't work. That's right, our alpha is a bully who beats up women and has the right to have sex with any member of the pack that he wants, even though he has a mate.
Hmm, I wonder why I didn't like it?!
After reading this, all I have to say is "Come back, snowflakes! All is forgiven!"
I love you, Mary Sue!

I been wanting to read this for a while now. And finally saw this at the bookstore. So as I was reading it, I found I liked Kitty at times. And there was moments where I wasn't so sure. It didn't stop me from liking the story. Well maybe a tiny bit. I mean Carl I didn't like.I did like the friendship between her and T.J. And the pacing was good. The radio bits were the best parts as well. Near the end I didn't expect to go in that direction.Or maybe it had to do with me going in not hearing muchWhat fun! Kitty is a werewolf DJ who runs a late-night radio program. When she starts talking about the possibility that there are "real" vampires, weres, etc., out there, her program suddenly starts to gain listeners and attention, not all of it good. Then, when she discloses that she is a werewolf, everything busts loose. Her pack leader is unhappy, the head of the local vampire collective forbids her to continue, a hunter has a contract for her life, and someone out there is killing people
Review to come. **Cliterary Genuis 2016 A to Z book challenge, letter K.
3.5 starsKitty isn't the typical urban fantasy heroine when she starts out - but I like she's not fake. She's in an abusive pack relationship but doesn't realize it for awhile, and the way she was turned into a werewolf was abuse again. She has no one other than her pack, who she seeks for comfort, until she finds her own with a paranormal themed late-night radio show that takes off across the coast.The radio station stuff was actually riveting - from funny callers, especially when they try to
Kitty Norville pleasantly surprised me with it's unique radio talk show segments and intriguing heroine. Unlike most other heroines in PNR UF series, Kitty is at the bottom of her pack and she's the meek one who needs the protection of others. Her radio talk show about supernatural beings suddenly takes off, and intrinsically she finds herself wanting to break out on her own and lead the pack.The whole 'pack' mentality was interesting in this one. Even as humans, the Alpha can do whatever he
Kitty is a werewolf who hosts The Midnight Hour, a late night radio program aimed at supernatural creatures. Every night she encounters her share of crazies, most of them are harmless, but one of them is a rogue who has started killing vulnerable women on the streets of Denver. With the police unable to deal with it, it's up to Kitty, with a little help from an assassin sent to kill her, to track down the rogue.This book is a lot of fun. It's probably not going to win any awards but it's great
This was a cool book idea, but the weak protagonist and horrible gender dynamics completely ruin it. There are plenty of ways to write werewolves. Why, why, why did this female author choose to write hers in a way that justifies the main character's repeated rape?This is not okay. Seriously. Take out the werewolf aspect of this book and you are left with a story about a woman being abused and repeatedly raped by a man who is treating other women the same way (oh, and taking half of their
