#WOLFSONG BY T.J. KLUNE

[betterbooksandthings]

“If you swoon at the sight of queer dragons, werewolves, and robots, you have made it to the right place. The best queer SFF romance books not only have wonderful queer romance, but also the magic, mystery, and mayhem that accompany science fiction and fantasy. Are we here to wrestle with the meaning of humanity and love? Yes, of course we are. In my biased opinion, there is nothing better.

I want a forbidden love that is legitimately forbidden because if they fall in love an ancient magic rains hell upon the earth. Marriages of convenience simply work better when the two diverging kingdoms may destroy each other (with magic or robots) if your wedding doesn’t happen. Give me the introduction scene normal people receive when they learn about all the things that go bump in the night. I need all your secret societies that are actually vampires or werewolves or whatever else you want to throw at me.

I am a bit of a queer SFF romance fanatic. In general, if it has a romance with a ghost, reaper, werewolf, witch, robot, or spaceship, I want to read it. I love it all. Theoretically, I can read the same set of tropes and premises over and over, and I am not sure I will ever tire. I haven’t yet, and trust me when I say I could name 20 books about vampires and vampire hunters falling in love right now without breaking a sweat.“

Wolfsong - T.J. Klune

Wolfsong is not my first T.J. Klune book, but it is certainly one of his best works. I was skeptical at first for numerous reasons, first I am always a bit reluctant with certain wolf books, I do enjoy this theme if done right, but I am always afraid it might be too cringy or fall too close into those ABO fanfics. Thankfully, that is not the case here. I feel like one of the reasons Wolfsong is…

Book Review Wolfsong (Green Creek Book 1 of 4) by T.J. Klung

TLDR go read this book. Seriously. Just go. Run to your local Barnes and Noble or Amazon and just buy it.

So the whole reason I even found out about the Furry Fandom is because of my love for Werewolves as a teenager. Werewolves are my jam. Gay werewolves are my peanut butter. There's one problem.

Most gay werewolf fiction is written by women. That on it's own is not a bad thing. But it also involves a lot of M-Preg. I'm not going to kink shame people who are into that but it's frustrating that the majority of gay werewolf fiction is all m-preg stuff. I get that the omega verse is popular but it gets old.

So when I realized this new author I was getting into had written a gay werewolf book, i was like fuck yeah. So I downloaded it and now Listened to the whole series audiobook style multiple times. I've listened to all 4 books at least 4 times. I have a problem.

Anyway, so the first book centers around Oxnard (Ox) Matheson. The book starts when Ox is a kid and he catches his dad packing to leave. The dad tells Ox he regrets everything in his life except Ox. He tells Ox he's a good kid even though he's a bit dumb and then leaves to never return. The next scene is Ox calling a guy named Gordo. Gordo is super important. We love Gordo. He's the asshole with a heart of gold. Gordo owns a garage in town that Ox's dad worked at. Ox calls Gordo and basically begs him for a job even though he's underage because they might loose the house otherwise. Gordo and his mom work out a deal where he can work for Gordo under the table and Gordo will pay his mom to help keep the bills up. It's hinted that Gordo pays Ox way more than he should so all the bills are caught up in a couple of months. Gordo also has a tendency to under charge for services if he knows his customer can't afford it. On top of that, also working for Gordo is Tanner, Chris and Rico. We also love these three because they are the comedic trio that keeps things light. The auto garage gang along with Ox's mom become his sort of family, helping him to deal with life and all that as he grows older.

Some weird stuff happens, like a mysterious creature that growls at him in the forest before running away and meeting a weird dude named Mark Bennet who scents the air a lot. But the big event is when he turns 16, he runs into a small boy who immediately takes a liking to him and starts asking why he smells like candy canes and pinecones. and epic and awesome. This is when Ox is introduced to the Bennet family. And as he gets closer to this family, he is told that the boy, his name is Joe, hadn't said anything for 15 months before meeting Ox that day because he was kidnapped and tortured.

I won't go into too much further detail because I don't want to spoil it. But this story has a lot of angst for a bit. So be prepared for that. There are two sex scenes at the end of the book when ox is in his mid 20's. But I love this book. With every fiber of my being. If you're a fan of found families, werewolves, a little bit of well deserved angst in the middle and a lot of random cuddling, then you will love this book. I also highly recommend the other books in the series as well. Also TJ Klung's other books are awesome too. They are for the most part queer supernatural stories. If you like more comedy themed books, the Tales from Verenia series is hilarious. These books make me cry happy tears and are just great examples of queer books written by queer people.

[Wolfsong][T.J. Klune]

Dall'autore amatissimo de La casa sul mare celeste e Sotto la porta dei sussurri, una storia d'amore, lealtà e famiglia.

Ox aveva 16 anni quando ha incontrato un ragazzo sulla strada verso casa. Il ragazzo che parlava, parlava e parlava. Soltanto in seguito scoprì che il ragazzo non aveva aperto bocca per quasi due anni prima di quel giorno. Ox aveva 23 anni il giorno in cui la morte arrivò in città, scavandogli un vuoto nella testa e nel cuore. Il ragazzo rincorse il mostro con lo sguardo assetato di vendetta,…

books i read in 2022 - wolfsong by t.j klune //🇲🇽 la canción del lobo

[theclockistickingwrite]

I promised you we were coming home,” he says, hoarse, not quite a shout but something skirting the edge of a scream and a sob. “I kept my promise.”

“I dreamed you were dead,” Mark says. “Sometimes.”

Gordo’s mouth twists. His eyes are dead, hollow things. “I dreamed of you,” he says, and it sounds like a threat. The frayed thread between them shivers, slices cuts along Mark’s ribs when he breathes.

(The three nights between the chapters “home” and “like a wolf/they bled here” in Wolfsong, from Mark’s perspective).

[practicefortheheart]

Tell more about wolfsong, how sad is it?

It's definitely not a YA book, it's not like Under the whispering door or The house in the cerulean sea. I'll put the rest under a break, because I don't want to spoil it too much.

It's similar in that it's about found family, and there is a lot of warmth and humor and his characters are great as always. So much love.

It's basically all the things you liked about Twilight, but done right and turned up to a million.

In this book the stakes are high and real. In terms if AO3 type warnings I'd put graphic depictions of violence (and quite a lot of it) and major character death (but not gratuitous). There is a lot of pining and angst, hurt/comfort and it's Explicit.

The characters are sad for a big part of the book, and so you will be too. Because he makes you care for them. But they are also strong and so you know.

You know T.J. Klune will not rob the pining gays of their ending.

Sleepy Readathon | June - Week 4

I finished the audiobook for Bryony and Roses by T. Kingfisher (please appreciate the rose 🌹 I got to take the pic). It was a beauty and the beast retelling with a nice twist. Liked it a lot.

I'm currently reading Wolfsong by T.J. Klune and it's going well so far. Went from being a soft, fuzzy book to bombarding me with feels. It rained yesterday (monsoon season my beloved) and I got attacked by all varieties of insects last night because I was reading in the dark with a lamp on 🛋️

[haveyoureadthisfantasybook]

Mr Fox (Helen Oyeyemi), Gleaming Bright (Josepha Sherman), Wolfsong (T.J. Klune), Six-Gun Snow White (Catherynne M. Valente), Daughters of Sparta (Claire Heywood), Half a Soul (Olivia Atwater), Kiki's Delivery Service (Eiko Kadono), Eon (Alison Goodman), The King in Yellow (Robert W. Chambers)

hello! most of these are queued.

The King in Yellow is a non-linked short story collection, which I’m not accepting for these polls.

re Alison Goodman’s Eon, were you looking for just the first book, or did you also want the sequel?

[cordeliacordate]

book recs for @helaenadreamer :)

LSKJD tumblr wouldnt let me reply to you twice so here is the other part of your ask :)

hiiii! oh boy this is a lot of thinking okie...hmm...

Books | I'm not a pretentious reader at all, so LOL I don't know where my reading preferences rank overall in terms of literary merit, but I just went to B&N recently when they were having their big sale, and the ones I got were:

The Narrow Road Between Desires, Patrick Rothfuss

Sword Catcher, Cassandra Clare

Chain of Thorns, Cassandra Clare

The Fragile Threads of Power, V.E. Schwab

In the Lives of Puppets, T.J. Klune

Wolfsong & Ravensong, T.J. Klune

House of Flame and Shadow, Sarah J. Maas (pre-order)

I also have The Hurricane Wars (Thea Guanzon) sitting next to me and would like to start it soon :) and then I literally always have my copy of Fire & Blood close by and the ASOIAF series accessible on my Kindle because I spend a lot of time fact-checking for my canonverse stuff. I really enjoy mythology and fairytales, but I don't have any specific stories there. I like to collect books whenever I travel from local bookshops, though, and have friends that bring me back stuff when they travel as well :)

Other than that, I read a lot of romance on my Kindle and I love Ruby Dixon's everything she's ever written. The stories always have fun worldbuilding and a good level of smut you can't really get elsewhere, so I enjoy them!

Overall favorite novels, though:

Call Me by Your Name, André Aciman

Interview with the Vampire, Anne Rice

Anything by Holly Black, SJM, Laini Taylor, or V.E. Schwab

And then I usually try to read any fanfic that has been adapted, rumored to have been adapted, or written by someone who was known in fandom :) so authors like Ali Hazelwood, Jessica Clare, Olivie Blake, and I just downloaded Casey McQuiston's RWRB again. I've learned that "it reads like fanfic" is a good thing because it usually means that the pacing is something that I will enjoy and the stories themselves are more in-line with what I like to read.

I also read a lot of fanfic SKDJLKS but mostly mlm fic at this point in time. A big fan of Sterek, Reylo, Drarry, and more recently, Wolfstar!

thank you for asking!!!
