    About this audiobook

    Kitty Norville is a midnight-shift DJ for a Denver radio station-and a werewolf in the closet. Sick of lame song requests, she accidentally starts "The Midnight Hour," a late-night advice show for the supernaturally disadvantaged.

    After desperate vampires, werewolves, and witches across the country begin calling in to share their woes, her new show is a raging success. But it's Kitty who can use some help. With one sexy werewolf hunter and a few homicidal undead on her tail, Kitty may have bitten off more than she can chew.

      Finally! Something that kept my attention. I went through 5 books that I DNF before I found this one. I've had a bit of a bad spell... anyway... We have vampires, hunters, werewolves and possibly a cure?! Kitty's world is new for her and she struggles to find her place in it. The story is engaging. I feel for her and cheer her on. She seems like she is getting a better grasp. This book is adult themed. Pack fights with death, alpha/submissive posturing including sex. I enjoyed her growth and look forward to continuing this series.

      Pretty good urban fantasy. Generally likable character, minor personal development, fair world building, minimal mythos, fair technicals, fair interpersonal interactions.I may read more by author. overall 75%

      Kitty is a young werewolf trying to live her own life. Distressed by her new life as an otherworldly creature, she begins a radio talk show about manners, customs and sensible advice for nonhumans. In so doing, she begins to reclaim the confidence she lost when she was turned. The radio show is amusing, but the most interesting part of this book is its examination (from a formerly human perspective) of the power dynamics of a werewolf pack.
    • 3/5
      I picked this up as a random audiobook from the library. While nothing about it amazed me, I was amused throughout the entirety of it. Kitty's 'I've always been weak' bothered me, but it was also always in context of 'I'm not anymore,' so I dealt with it. I did feel like the book didn't really accomplish anything significant. The smaller mystery was solved, but the primary conflict wasn't and the book felt a little like a randomly selected period of time. But as a basic fluff read, the book did the job admirably. My library has the next two. I imagine I'll listen to them at some point.
    • 3/5
      I like some of the themes raised in this book: biology versus choice, mainstream versus other, and human versus animal. I enjoyed the literary references. The writing was good, but focused on quick pacing, instead of the kind of rich description that I tend to enjoy most.
    • 4/5
      DJ Kitty the werewolf, cute little twist with the name and species. I really enjoyed reading this book. It has some good action areas and Kitty seems to get herself into a lot of trouble trying to just be herself. But, when you are part of a pack and want to be yourself that isn't such a good idea. Kitty is an interesting character and I enjoyed reading her story. I am diving right into the next series in the book, because I am excited to see what Kitty does next.
    • 3/5
      [Possible Minor Spoiler]According to Gene Wolfe, author of "The Wizard": "Do you like Werewolves? Vampires? Talk radio? Reading? Sex? If the answer to any of these is YES, you're in for a wonderful ride."Allow me to disillusion you right now. There is no sex in this book, no romance, only lust and rape. Our main character is repeatedly raped in this novel. I feel no romantic rush from seeing the main character raped. She's all over another character at one point, in a small glimmer of contrived romance, but nothing happens. This is a good thing, since this character previously tried to KILL HER, which, according to many people's sense of logic, seems to mean there's OBVIOUSLY some chemistry between them. This disappointed me, because there were early indicators that the author wasn't going to follow that incredibly cliched path. I also find it hard to believe that a survivor of multiple rapes is eager to jump in the sack with a virtual stranger.Overall, it was an interesting read, delving into the gritty rules and politics of pack life in this world. There is visible character growth in Kitty, which is something I always appreciate in a good book. In some aspects, this novel is like so many others of the genre, while in others, it is definitely unique. If you are familiar with the genre, you will recognize which is which. I will not embellish more for fear of giving away more than I already have, but I do want the reader to be aware of what isn't in this book.I give it a three, because it is a page-turner, but it is lacking in some character credibility.
    • 4/5
      This is the first book in the ‘Kitty’ series by Carrie Vaughn. The books I’ve read lately are a little topic-heavy so I was really anxious to start on something lighter and this fit the bill. I’ve not read a lot in the fantasy/paranormal genre but what I have read, I’ve enjoyed. Kitty is a late night radio talk host and a werewolf. But she’s a good werewolf and does not randomly attack people – but focuses more on wildlife in the woods nearby her pack leader’s home and then only once per month during the full moon. This is the reason that working the night shift at the station suits her so well – she has a nightlife that beats all. One evening, bored of the usual music, she starts taking calls about whether people believe in creatures such as vampires and werewolves. Suddenly her show is a hit, Kitty is a sensation and she’s got her hands full dealing with callers who have every conceivable question about the nature of the undead, not to mention people who are capable of transforming themselves into large furry animals with very sharp teeth. I know I would have a few questions.Along with the sudden fame comes a whole host of other issues, however, and Kitty has to deal with an angry pack leader, a rogue werewolf, an secretive government agent as well as her own need to stretch her, uhm, claws, so that she can feel more comfortable in her own skin/fur.The story is a very fast-paced, easy read. It’s got loads of action, a bit of gory violence and a touch of sex – so not for the younger set – but it wasn’t too over the top. It even had a few sad moments that I wish hadn’t happened, but I suppose you can’t have everything be peachy-keen. I also like that the author added a playlist of the songs she listened to as while writing the book and can see how Creedence Clearwater Revival’s song, ‘Bad Moon Rising’ would fit right in with Kitty and the Midnight Hour!All in all I really enjoyed this first in the series book and I’m looking forward to reading the next one, Kitty Goes to Washington.
    • 4/5
      vampires & werewolves walk among us, and the real world is about to find out about the hidden one. nothing totally groundbreaking in this book - if you've read the worlds written by kelley armstrong or patricia briggs before, you've got the concept down - but that's not a bad thing. this one's just as good as those other very nice entries into the urban fantasy genre, and if you like them, you'll like this one. an easy writing voice, a likable heroine, and an engagingly gritty plot that doesn't offer sunsiney promises that everyone's going to get out of this unscathed: quite good.
    • 4/5
      I was surprised by how much I liked this book. I bought it during a half-off sale at a closing bookstore partly because I had heard a few complimentary things about the series but mostly because it was cheap. Kitty Norville, a werewolf, inadvertently starts an advice segment for supernatural creatures during her shift at a local radio station. The show is a major hit and she’s invited to take it national—unfortunately, some people aren’t so supportive of her vocalizing the existence of the paranormal community. What really set this book apart from other supernatural series was the protagonist, Kitty. I typically find it hard to relate to—or even like—a lot of the main female characters in recent fantasy series. (Not that there aren’t some that I do like, don’t get me wrong.) Unfortunately, most either have Damsel in Distress Syndrome or they’re too busy trying to prove that they are oh-so-tough by going out of their way to intimidate every other character they meet and instantly resorting to brawn rather than brain. Or they’re simply Mary Sues. Not so with Kitty Norville. What I loved about Kitty was her ability to rationalize and use her words rather shooting first and asking questions later. Too many authors lean on the idea that killing and violence are the only ways to amp up the action in their books. Kitty is a character that has an aversion to violence but this doesn’t make her a weak person—in fact, Kitty knows when it is necessary to assert herself. She simply tries to use her voice before her fists. And in the end, she is undeniably a strong character. She’s a survivor. She tries to live a normal human life despite her lycanthropy and this by itself requires strength. Perhaps I’m just not looking in the right paranormal niches, but this is the first werewolf book I’ve read that explores the dynamics of a pack. I felt that a few of the other pack members weren’t quite as fleshed out as they could be, and I probably would have rated a little higher if a few other characters were given more backstory. I’m hoping that they will become more fleshed out in later novels.All in all, Kitty and the Midnight Hour is a light, fun, quick read. Highly recommended for fantasy fans.
    • 4/5
      I wasn't expecting to like this. I've gotten pretty jaded about the entire subgenre of paranormal urban fantasy, full of cliched vampires, airhead and sarcastic heroines who despite being supposedly competent still act like a bad romance TSTL character, bad plotting, and bad characterization with little to no character development. Oh, and the slow (and sometimes not so slow) downward spiral to sexapalooza. I, personally, blame Laurell K. Hamilton.But I had read some of Vaughn's other, standalone novels and loved them. So I gritted my teeth, crossed my fingers, and checked out the first Kitty book from the library. It was a fast and fun read, and not once did I get the urge to reach into the book and smack the main character upside the head. An intelligent female protagonist, an interesting (though on the light side) plot. I'll be picking up in the second book.
    • 4/5
      Definitely up my alley with regard to the genre, and I love the idea of a werewolf hosting a radio talk show to discuss the misunderstood lives of the paranatural. And how can you not like the idea of a werewolf named Kitty? But the narrator for this series is the same as for the Hollows series by Kim Harrison, so I kept getting the two worlds a bit confused. I'll definitely read the next one in the series, but probably not for a while after I've finished the Hollows series.
    • 4/5
      I love werewolf books and this one was very fun! I’m glad it’s a series so there are a bunch more to read. I really like the world and mythology that Vaughn has created!
    • 3/5
      So far, I'm finding this series pretty amusing to read. I feel like I picked it up years ago and got nowhere, but right now it's working for me. I like that the potential romances are secondary. I like the general ambivalence about the paranormal world. I like that Kitty is finding new strength all over the place. I'm interested to see what happens next.
    • 4/5
      An impressive start to what I think is going to be an outstanding series. Usually, the first book in a series like this reads a little slow because the author has to build the world as well as introduce the character.

      The author handled the world building and character development well, while managing to keep the plot moving at a brisk pace. I'm really looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
    • 3/5
      Just reread this to refresh my memory, as I plan to read some of the others in this series. It's not bad, but not a favorite. If I don't like book #2 more, I'll probably quit the series.
    • 2/5
      I'm glad it was on sale.
    • 4/5
      This had such an interesting storyline that I wasn't sure if I was going to like it and surprisingly I did. This was such an easy to read book and humorous book. I quite like the way the author wrote Kitty and the second book is definitely on my list to read.
    • 4/5
      There's a little more cold-blooded (or, okay, I suppose mostly hot-blooded, but still) murder than I think was entirely necessary, but this book was still pretty great. I like the conceit of the radio show a lot - it allows for a lot of fun philosophical musing on what it means to be a supernatural creature in the modern world. So, um, maybe it's only for you if you like that sort of philosophical musing and you also don't really mind reading about excessive quantities of murder.
    • 4/5
      This is one of those urban fantasy books that has some really quite dark components but is written in a style that makes it feel more of a light read. It was entertaining and intriguing, and I got through it quickly.I like the way the nature of the werewolves is portrayed. The combination and clash of human and wolf in the one body is uneasy and somewhat unstable, making it more realistic (for want of another description) than some other werewolf books.There's a good story that lends itself well to creating a series, and there is a pleasant lack of world-building and backstory that sometimes bulks up first books of a series. Even so, it gives a solid picture of werewolf society, how things are and how they got that way, as well as bringing in other threads that are likely to play a role in further books.
    • 3/5
      5/2016 1 Star - So I started reading this book and really couldn't get over how weak Kitty is... I only made it through a couple of chapters before I had to stop. I like strong women characters, I also don't like the whole Alpha can do whatever with whomever whenever type of romantic story line (not really romantic)
      I just can't get into it. so I won't probably finish.

      6/2018 3.5 Stars - so I reread this book at the urging of a friend I still didn’t like how the alphas treated kitty. Not teaching someone how to defend themselves is a poor way to protect someone. I did enjoy how she grew but I still wanted her to kick everyone’s butt and not be so submissive.
    • 4/5
      Blasted through this thing in a single sitting--I had no interest in putting it down. I really loved the excerpts from Kitty's radio show; they never felt trite and they never got old. I love the balance Kitty learned to strike between fight and flight/making yourself small and hoping "they" don't go after you.

      The whole story is a wonderful, speculative take on a young woman growing up, learning to take care of herself, and leaving behind bad relationships and situations. I love that her independence stems from her radio show, how her job was dead-end until she had some fun with it and then it basically saved her life, financially and emotionally. Every woman needs that, and I love seeing it reflected in fiction.
    • 3/5
      And now we talk about me and my thoughts. As I do. We're going to start with what I really did not like. Kitty herself says it when she says that if she and Carl (her pack alpha) were human she'd be encouraged to leave him because his behavior toward her is abuse. She's the youngest werewolf in the pack, she eats last, she has no standing, she's at the bottom of the hierarchy. It's... squicky. It's okay for wolves in the wild, I've watched the documentaries, I get all that, but Kitty is a human, at least until she changes into a wolf, and it really is abuse. Carl tells her what to do, who to see, slaps her around, and ends it with sex. I can't tell you how not okay with that I am, and how happy I am that by the end Kitty had learned to stand up to him and left the pack, because I would not have been coming back for more if that was going to continue.

      It bothered me that with all the emphasis on wolf behavior that in the end Meg, the alpha's wife and the alpha female, used very human means to get what she wanted. Very unwolflike. She didn't fight, she didn't even respect her mate. It is wolves that mate for life, isn't it? I think it is. If you want your werewolves to act like wolves, then fine, but you really should not use that excuse to make with the sex and humiliation for Kitty (it smacks of plot device, btw, not kinky sex because it isn't overly detailed) and then throw aside the wolf behaviors when it suits your plot to do that. It works to a degree for Kitty while she attempts to reconcile her human and werewolf sides, but it does not work for the alpha female who has long since reconciled these sides.

      I ended up liking Kitty very much. She's got some things to deal with and she knows that. Her current strengths become even more obvious when you learn the story of how she became a werewolf and how she wasn't truly adult or independent at that time. She then went straight to the pack and depended upon them for everything. She's got a hard road now and I'm interested in seeing how she makes out with that.

      I'm torn about Cormac. He could end up being a great character, he could end up being cheesetastic and lame. He and Kitty are right now on the same side, and that's good, they have some sexual tension which could be played on, but he's also a supernatural executioner and they met because he was hired to kill her. Problematic. They got over it awfully easily, and I'm not so sure that's great. Iffy, as I said.

      Love the radio show idea. I kept waiting for Kitty's revelation to backfire or to just be more than it was. I would have thought people would have doubted her or wanted to kill the mutie freak, but neither happened. I didn't feel as if I had enough from the book to have that make sense to me. Right now the universe is aware of supernatural beings and seems to be accepting them, but it happened so fast.

      The interview with the author of the vampire books cracked me right the fuck up. OH HAI THAR ANNE RICE. Bwah! Vaughn did this great thing at the end of that interview and turned a skewering of a popular author into a touching moment and I think that might have been when I started to like this book.

      Kitty's producer and her sound guy--Ozzy and Tom???--could have been fleshed out more, but I liked them because Kitty liked them and because she thinks of them as "the pack you make." Yep, that's my thing, that's what gets me. I'll be continuing with the series.

      This was a fun read.
    • 3/5
      It feels refreshing to have a book focusing on a werewolf instead of a vampire in urban fantasy. I'm liking the establishment of character in the first two chapters, plus revealing at least one antagonist. The author created a unique world, which is also nice. It was fun to watch her grow as her radio show grows, as the book progresses. So often the protagonist isn't the one changing in these books.The first third felt strong. The next third of the book, the plot became very diffuse. I honestly had trouble finding anything more than her internal struggles. Pack politics seems rather understated, all things considered. The radio show, which was the big plot device, has fallen to a lesser position. And what's with Cormac the bounty hunter and our happy little wolf going vixen on him ? The addition of the vamps seems like an editorial suggestion of "if you have any super, you have to have them all." I hate editorial meddling of that nature.This definitely felt like a story where the pack Omega becomes stronger than expected and throws the pack out of sorts. Which usually also creates more plot lines for future books.Again I come across details placed too late in the book to make them not seem like "OMG! REALLY?!" type reveals. You didn't get a full sense of the character's animosity until past the half way point. Or even hints of her duplicitous nature. This doesn't work well when one wants to point the finger as the first book's main protagonist. In fact, it makes it feel like a sudden left turn. It might add a few pages but the extra plot hints would be worth it.The last twenty five pages or so bring the focus back to the plot, moving us to a conclusion. It felt like a good, strong ending, with many possibles. With all this did, I'd love to give this more than three stars but it just doesn't get that high for me. Thankfully, this is book one. Can't wait to see where we go from here.

      Kitty is a radio DJ in Denver who just happens to be a werewolf. When someone calls in and she starts giving otherworldly advice, a late-night show for vampires, werewolves and the like becomes "The Midnight Hour." But Kitty's new show isn't popular with everyone - a bigwig vampire named Arturo talks her pack leader Karl into telling her to stop, and someone's out for Kitty's life.I'm not sure quite what to make of this first book in the series, though I think much of my trouble comes from listening to it as an audiobook. I'm just not an aural learner, so it takes longer for me to "read" through and I miss more details. The premise was interesting, the story compelling, and explaining werewolf pack and vampire family dynamics was decent worldbuilding, though at the same time entirely messed up. I liked Kitty as a character and seeing her come into her own, though some of the scenes were too violent for my taste. A promising start for fans of urban paranormal fantasy series.

      This has been on my to-read list for a WHILE, but there’s only so much paranormal romance I can read at once, so between Jeaniene Frost, Charlaine Harris, Patricia Briggs, and Kelley Armstrong, I’ve been pretty booked — so to speak. But, I’ve finally found the time to read this, and I am glad I did.My favorite part is that the supernatural world is actually portrayed by Kitty as being weird. She doesn’t blindly accept werewolf rules and completely buy into the alpha/pack thing — it freaks her out and she’s constantly trying to reconcile what she knows as a human and how she feels as a wolf, which was interesting and unique, at least in terms of comparing to other paranormal books I’ve read. I also like that she starts off as the bottom of the pack and has that conflict between her human life and wolf life. Basically, Vaughn does a great job in contrasting Kitty’s wolf and human life and putting them in constant conflict. It makes for an engaging read.I do think the “romance” between Kitty and the hunter was handled a little clumsily. I get that they need to have somewhat of an attraction for each other in order to move the story forward, but I think it was rather awkwardly fast, even with all of the drama going on. As a rule, I don’t particularly like how a lot of romance is done in books anyway, so I’m getting used to getting disappointed by strangely unrealistic portrayals of relationships.Overall, this book surprised me quite a bit and I enjoyed the picture it painted of the supernatural world and how it interacts with the human world. In the future books, I’m hoping to see more consequences from Kitty openly admitting to being supernatural, and hopefully I get to see more of this world at work and how other packs/supernaturals interact with each other. We’ll see how quickly it’ll take me to get to book 2. :pOriginally posted on Going on to the Next.

      Kitty is a werewolf radio alternative music host on late night public radio show. She stays off the main grid until, she starts letting her otherness drift into her radio show and becomes a public celebrity as a werewolf. Her pack, the local vampires and some religious factions are not pleased about her coming out and opening that whole can of worms. She as a submissive wolf must learn to deal with people trying to kill her, the cops trying to use her, her pack power struggles and try to help solve some recent murders. Life is never easy.
      I really enjoyed this romp through Kitties world. She grows and finds herself solving her own problems through trial and error. The pack dynamics where realistic, as was her character. A good solid urban fantasy.

      I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could. :)
