02: I Live to Complicate Your Life

In this Episode, Uncle Mike's Book Club first talk about who they are, their relationship to the Mercy-verse books, and their favorite books (River Marked, Wild Sign, Storm Cursed). Then they do a fresh-reaction overview of Blind Date with a Werewolf, which had just come out. Including Sherwood Post reveals, how pretty Asil apparently is, and a debate over Asil’s future.

Books we refer to by informal nicknames: the harp book (Winter Lost), the sickle book (Soul Taken), the horsey book (Dead Heat), the happy camp book (Wild Sign).

Random things mentioned: how we got into the Mercy Thompson books and our favorites, Percy Jackson (Apollo books), Chick-fil-a and witches,

As always, there are potentially spoilers for every single book published (through Blind Date with a Werewolf). So if you aren’t caught up, maybe join us when you are?

Oh, and the things we don't correct each other on- I promise we (mostly) know them. It just makes for lousy conversation to correct constantly on a side point. And I'm not making a directory of all the random things we call books when we blank on the titles. Someone else is welcome to.
