by
Judith Graves (Goodreads Author)
With FIENDS like Eryn... Monsters. Bloodsuckers. The evil. The damned. Eryn McCain knows they exist-she's been hunting them since she was a child. At sixteen, she's ready to take on all comers. Being a shapeshifter gives her an advantage when it comes to her unusual part-time job. The hours suck and the pay is, well, non-existent, but bonuses like inhuman strength and nigh...more

Short Synopsis: Eryn lives in a town called RedGrave where practically everyone has a special power. Eryn, being part wolven, must learn to control her wolf before things get worse. But before she can do that, the town is being haunted by a night mare. A horrible monster that preys on innocents through their night mares.
My Thoughts: Easy to follow along to, with interesting characters, and a...more
After I read these two books I had no idea what to think. Throughout the entire first book you pretty much know only about three main characters are supernaturals. At the end more characters have reveled themselves and I swear I never saw it coming. The main characters spends most of the entire first book fighting both sides of herself. She's a half wolven which is just a different more modern day werewolf. Kinda like Underworlds werewolves. They can change into humans, and have thoughts. Werewo...more
The sequel of Under My Skin was better than the first. The plot went in so many different directions and none of my predictions were met. Many new revelations were made that pales to the comparisons of the first book and I'm wondering what more will be revealed as they leave me with more questions.
Eryn spends most of this book running away from her problems and that as well as how she dealt with it was very realistic. Second Skin seemed like a premise for the next book as there are many revelati...more

I was in such a mood, that even though I wasn't overly fond of the first novel, I would give the second a go, to see if it improved. This story was mostly just a rehashing of the first book with several more annoying story lines tied in. Eryn is really not that likable. She's not super loyal, she cares mostly about herself and she can't stop talking about her "wolven" side. I don't think I will be reading anymore in this series. The author failed to make me care.

Really good book. You get hooked from the beginning and keeps you on your toes.
I have read this as e-book and have done the review under that one.
Loved it. Wish the next book was out!
Loved this book.
Great story pace and growth of the characters.
Still cant decide between Wade or Alec for Eryn, but I might be leaning more towards Wade. hmm....

A good read. Likeable narrator, a creepy monster du jour and an awesome 60 page climax. I liked how Eryn had to accept her wolven side, and the subplot with Paige.
I hope there will be more progress on the over-arching plot in the next book and, please, no Love Rectangles.

The Skinned series by Judith Graves begged for my attention. Little Miss attitude meats chimera and paranormal romance. Loved it. I guarantee the third will be just as good.
