Search - Ivy Cole and the Moon

This book caught my eye in a bookstore a while back. I'm glad that it did because it was an extremely well-written book. The plot was tight - there was a lot of mystery, but the information was given just at the right time; the characters are great. The only thing I didn't really like was the way that it ended, but perhaps the author was leaving it open for a sequel.

Wow, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. A different take on werewolves. This is one of those books I just found while browsing around & it looked intersting. Im glad I ordered it. The storyline is really great & the author really seemed to know her stuff about werewolf lore. Lots of surprises & twists. Kinda like a cross between a horror & mystery. I am immediately buying the next book "Luna".

Ivy Cole and the Moon first caught me because the cover and taglines were so interesting. This book does not dissapoint. The plot is interesting and keeps you turning the page from present day North Carolina to German folklore. I hope there is a sequel coming because it seemed to imply as much at the end of the book. Ivy is a charcter anyone can identify with as she walks that fine line of what sorts of evil people she should personally punish. After all, "some people deserve a good killing".

This was a very different kind of werewolf story than I usually read. Ivy was an intense, strong character who was sometimes difficult to like. One side of her saves stray dogs, the other side serves out justice as a werewolf every month. But I have to say I enjoyed the book & can't wait to read the next one in the series.
