Eryn is new to Redgrave. She is also part wolven, but tries to hide this from her friends as well as herself. Redgrave, however, is a town that has quite a bit of paranormal activity going on, and it gets harder for Eryn to control the bloodlust within. Her closest friends are the Delacroix boys, who seem to have secrets of their own. The police chief's son, Wade, has warned her to stay away from the Delacroix boys, saying that they are bad news, but then again, they say the same thing about

Under My Skin is one of those books, that you sit down thinking you'll read a few pages of it and then a few hours later you're done. I found myself wanting to read more of Judith's mythology and world building. By the time I finished reading the book, I wanted to read more.
The first half of Under My Skin was a little slow for me, but this was due to the building up of the mythology and introducing the reader to the characters and the world in which Judith has created. Being the first More...

Have you ever had a secret that you couldn't share? Eryn has a few secrets that she is trying to keep from her new friends. Worried about how they would take the news that she is much different from them, she tries her best to keep the secrets deep inside. Little does she know the town she now calls home has many of it's own deep, dark issues too.
Eryn is a tough cookie, always showing off that she doesn't need anyone's help, but deep down she's like every other girl – needing to fit More...

Under My Skin has all the elements of a good paranormal YA – werewolves, vampires, shamans and sprites. It has secrets, danger and of course a love triangle.
I really liked Grave’s spin on werewolves. There are Wolven who are born and werewolves which are made. Eryn is a half breed Wolven who has had her wolf kept in check by a drug her father has been giving her. When her parents go missing Eryn has to deal not only with their loss but also with her primal wolf impulses – impulses that may More...

When Eryn's parents go missing, the Council decides it's best that she live with her Aunt & Uncle in Redgrave. On the outskirts to nowhere, they suggest a paranorm-free place like Redgrave would keep her safe as they search for clues to find what happened to her parents. When animals & kids go missing, someone needs to take the blame - the Delacroix family. Eryn struggles as she discovers there's more to this sleepy town then meets the eye!
Wow, this debut by Judith is action packed! More...

My thoughts...I really liked this book. Initially I was a bit put off by the cover, it is a bit plain. However, after an interview with the author, I knew this was something I had to read. I was not disappointed. The brilliantly charming personality of author Judith Graves really shone through in her writing. This is a great read for YA fans of all ages.

Couldn't finish this. Lately I've been having shitty luck with selfpublished authors this month. This was one of those books.
Things I hated:
. Main character. Shes a hunter that kills werewolves, vamps, ect. Shes very cocky and very immature. Talks to herself a lot. She thinks shes all "badass " but shes not. She lets a werewolf go within the first few pages! Wtf!?

This book as everything supernatural you could think about from werewolves to vampires and things in between. I can't wait for the next book to come out. The characters are very likable except for Eryn's cousin who I wanted to disappear forever. You have a love triangle and a mystery. So go pick up this book and read it in one nig

This book definitely exceeded my expectations. While I'm not a fan of the cover or of the somewhat juvenile pictures found throughout the book, the story was surprisingly good. Graves puts a new spin on things that go bump in the night and those who hunt them. I expected another supernatural romance novel that gained popularity on the tailcoats of the Twilight phenomenon. Instead, I got an original tale of witchcraft and paranormal butt-kicking.

“Under my skin” revolves around a teenage girl named Eryn who is living a more than complicated teenage life. Her parents have disappeared and she is shipped off to somewhere in northern Alberta to live with her Aunt, Uncle and cousin. On top of all that, you guessed it, there’s some paranormal goodness brewing.

Okay, so I basically read this book in two days, not because it was utterly enthralling, but because I was eager to see how it would end and if the author was going to make something amazing happen. Nothing amazing happened. I was waiting for something epic to pop out and shock me, but it didn't happen. I might as well get all the good points out first because I have so many more that are bad. I did like the idea of the story and the characters names, I liked how the main character, Eryn, had th

I don't really know what I was expecting this book to be like, but it wasn't this. Just about anything paranormal has made its way into this book. And I mean everything.
Eryn is a very sassy narrator, which I adored in the beginning but started getting old near the end. She was sarcastic all the time. I love snarky characters, but a few times, I wished she would have opened up just a little instead of keeping people away.

I am not sure where to start without spoiling the story. Debut author, Judith Graves, does a wonderful job setting up her paranormal world in UNDER MY SKIN. The first in a trilogy finds Eryn in a small town in Northern Alberta. This was suppose to be a quiet place where she could lay low after the disappearance of her parents and instead she finds herself face to face with a werewolf. Eryn's story is one where she is attempting to learn about herself as a half-wolven, paranormal. She soon f

This is the best, most interesting book I've ever read. I can't wait until Second Skinned comes out so I can read it. I wonder what happens to Eryn. I enjoyed reading this book. This was the 1st book I have read that makes want to keep reading and never put down. I have never had a book with that same effect.

I'd really LOVE to read this book, but can't find an Ebook. My husband was always wanting me to sell the paper/hard copy books I buy, b/c they take up room. That's why I bought my eReader, and it sucks that I can't find this in ebook format. :(

Under My Skin had me hypnotized! You have paranormal mystery, a love triangle, new friendship, catty cousins and a struggling girl trying to find herself. Judith Graves graces us with stunning imagery that paints a fabulous, if not slightly spooky picture of the inhabitants of Redgrave. I am extremely excited to continue this adventure with the characters!
