My Wolf Bane Shapes of Autumn book one Veronica Blade Books

I can't remember how I found this book, but I'm really glad I did! It was so good, I read about 80% of it in two days! I couldn't put it down. I loved several things about it - the fact that it was written in first person and did not switch POV's (I don't like that - I can't keep track of whose head I'm in), the character development and build-up (I don't like it when a book rushes into the action before I get a chance to know the characters), and the chemistry between Autumn and Zach. There was mystery, suspense, and romance. I still wish a little more had happened between Autumn and Zach, but I have a feeling that's coming in the second book. The writing was very strong - got to the point without being overly descriptive, but with just the right amount so I could picture the scenes. The dialogue flowed naturally and seemed realistic. So far, this is the best book I've read in 2018! I will definitely be buying the rest of the series and I'll probably end up binge reading it soon!

My Wolf Bane Shapes of Autumn book one Veronica Blade Books Reviews

You know that feeling of disappointment when you’ve finished reading a really exceptional book? That’s what happened to me with My Wolf’s Bane. I read this book in about 2 1/2 days, and that says a lot since I am a slow reader and usually read 2-3 books simultaneously. Within the YA paranormal romance genre, this book excels. For me (and for many other Goodreads reviewers) it’s one of the best, and I’ll tell you why.

For one thing, the characters in My Wolf’s Bane aren’t annoying but actually well-developed and different from one another. One thing that kills my attention span is when all the characters in a novel start melding together as the same person, not one of them distinct from the next. Autumn is the sarcastic, attractive high-school aged protagonist who at first is preparing to unceremoniously dump her popular douche-bag of a boyfriend, Daniel. As Daniel begins harassing Autumn, she becomes increasingly more attracted to Zach — the mysterious hot new guy at school.

When a change appears in Daniel that causes both Zach and Autumn to believe he’s off his meds (or worse), eventually a feud breaks out between the two boys. Zach is suddenly at Autumn’s side night and day as her protector. Zach proves himself a complex character by giving Autumn the cold shoulder despite his obsession over her safety and her obvious interest in him. Unable to read the feelings of this gorgeous boy who she’s coming to realize is anything but human, Autumn struggles internally with facing the reality that she has acquired her own supernatural abilities.

Enough plot synopsis. It should already be apparent that along with formulating interesting characters, Veronica Blade can weave details together into a seamless and captivating storyline. This is no easy feat. I find often times when reading any sub genre of fiction, I subconsciously delete sentences or phrases in my head that are unnecessary. Those works of writing needed more editing. My Wolf’s Bane was not one of those works. The story flowed and was without the awkward, extra wording that slows a story down, making the reader all too aware of the writer’s inability to edit their own work.

In regards to plot — again, I loved it. There is a ton of YA paranormal romance about werewolves. It feels overdone, and I’m always wary of any fantasy fiction I pick up these days involving vampires, werewolves, or shifters. But I enjoyed this book so much that I didn’t mind it. Veronica Blade has described a human world in which werewolves exist that is actually believable. This is how I imagine werewolves to act and exist among us humans, with a hierarchy similar to the packs in the HBO show Trueblood.

My only complaint about this book is the very last paragraph. It’s a pet peeve of mine when the author ends a book in a way that is almost a sale pitch for the sequel. I just don’t think it’s needed. If the reader liked the book, as I did, they’re likely to read the sequel. There’s no need to set up the next book with a series of questions like, “What’s going to happen with ____?” or “Will so and so character do _____?” If you really want that to be the last thing your reader sees, then put it on the next page as an afterthought but don’t make it part of the book. It gives the impression the author is trying too hard and with a book this good, there’s really no need.

On that note, I truly hope I’ve convinced people to read this excellent book. You’ll find it hard to put down, I assure you.
Thanks to Veronica Blade, I've been sucked into another paranormal world! This one, of course, looks normal to the humans around them, but its rife with dangers for the werewolves and shifters. My Wolf's Bane is the start of an adventure that flies by so fast, you don't even realize you've just read over 300 pages. I'll be returning to Autumn and Zack's world because I just bought the second book in the series, Wolves at the Door, and I wonder how I missed this series when it debuted!
I loved this book! Autumn is a confused teenage girl who is getting ready to break up with her boyfriend. Then she meets this intriguing and very hot guy who misunderstands a situation and doesn't like her. And somehow he's always there when she needs him. She’s got all that going on and her body is doing impossible things. As she learns more and more about what she is, that boy is always around. But I won’t tell you why. You’ll have to find out for yourself 😛 Now I’m going to read the prequel since those characters are mentioned in book 1 and I want the background story. I'm really looking forward to this series!
This is my first time reading Ms. Blade's stories and even though they are geared to new adults during that final year of school I really liked it.

The story centers around Autumn who has moved around frequently due to her parents. Her parents are extremely over protective to the point of being cloying I think is the word I want which naturally Autumn really hates so since she'll be legal soon with her 18th birthday she blackmails her parents to let her stay to finish school. In many ways what she is going through reminds me of puberty all over again as stress seems to be causing strange things then she knocks into a total hottie who happens to be a wolf shifter Zack's first impression of Autumn isn't the best but to reveal anymore would ruin this story for others so suffice it to say that I thought it was riveting and thoroughly enjoyable.
Autumn can out run the creatures of the night. She is becoming something she doesn't understand. The powers are coming to her at the time of her eighteenth birthday. She believes she might be going crazy. She also meets the new boy at school at the time she is breaking up with her ex. Her ex won't leave her alone. He claims she is his. The new boy, Zack, is always around when she gets into a bind. Autumn and Zack are having feelings for one another. Zack knows its forbidden to be with Autumn, but he can't seem to stay away. Autumn doesn't want him to stay away. They have to pretend that Autumn isn't turning into a shapeshifter. It's deadly for both if it's discovered. Cliffhanger. Great story. Must read next one in the series to find out what happens next. I know I will be there. Will you! See what happens when Autumn and Zack have to run to stay alive. Happy reading.
