It isn’t working. The doctor said it would, but it isn’t, even though I keep taking the pills, and I keep seeing Dad sneak into the bathroom and count how many are left. As if I would stop taking them. As if I would let myself become a beast.
Brock Koeman lost his brother to werewolves. Now he’s in danger of losing himself. Bitten by a werewolf at sixteen, he fights the transformation, taking the excruciating pain as a punishment for his mistakes. With the help of a risky drug called Lycanthrox, he’s managed to stay human for two full moons. But he knows he can’t last much longer.
Hungry for revenge, Brock vows to kill the silver wolf who bit him. But Brock’s ex, the fiery Cynthia Lopez, still cares about him enough not to let him do anything suicidally dangerous—never mind that Cyn gets her thrills from danger herself. Together again, the heat between them rekindles, but Brock feels like a beast beside her beauty. He can’t stay with her; he can’t ignore the werewolves howling outside his window. When he hunts down the pack, Cyn doesn’t sit on the sidelines. She’s right beside him as they get taken hostage and start running with the werewolves, the police hot on their tails. Brock has to get a grip on who he truly is—before the wolf within kills him, or someone else does.
I love the color too. I think it take mysterious up a notch. The cover for OTHER is mysterious; this cover is creepy (in a good way!)
ReplyDelete'Brock' is an old English common term for 'badger', which makes me think a little more of The Wind in the Willows, and rather breaks the tension..! The cover of Bloodborn is definitely brooding, but Other has wonderful depth.
ReplyDeleteI like the color too but, wow, that guy on the top is super creepy!
ReplyDeleteThe cover of Other is really good! I like that one a lot, but the cover of the companion book isn't a cover that stands out for me. I do agree that guy is creepy and I would not want to see him when I'm jogging in the night. No thank you!
ReplyDeleteBut I'm not loving it.
I love both covers. I didn't realize her next book was out! Yeah for Karen Kincy! I'll have to get it. The guy is trying not to turn into a werewolf, I think that kind of shows on the cover with his eyes, yet the rest of his body is still human.
ReplyDeleteWhat a situation to be in?

It's really different, and I have to admit that while I didn't like it that much at first, it's starting to grow on me.
ReplyDeleteHave you read OTHER? Is this something we should read? The covers are pretty cool.
