2. Carrie Vaughn - Kitty and the Midnight Hour (Kitty Norville Series, Book 1)

"Vaughn's entertaining fantasy debut introduces Kitty Norville, a closeted werewolf who hosts a popular Denver radio program called The Midnight Hour. During her show, Kitty takes phone calls from listeners (not all of whom are human) while trying to maintain her secret identity. Unfortunately, the local vampire crime family wants her show canceled and has hired someone to kill her. In fact, it's during the course of Kitty's dramatic on-air conversation with her would-be assassin that she reveals to listeners that she is, indeed, a werewolf. Eventually, local police enlist her to help track down a serial killer who exhibits werewolflike tendencies. While Kitty's occasional neediness, snide tone and attempts at werewolf wit can grate, this remains a surprisingly human tale." - Publishers Weekly

A local Borders is closing and everything is 25% off there. Having that nice discount allowed me to pick up a book I might normally pass over, and this was one of them. I've been in a vampire and werewolf mood lately and this nicely hit the spot. While it wasn't the deepest of reads, it was enjoyable and I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the books in this series.
