Favorite Furry Sidekicks

A great read has so many different elements that work, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly why you love it. However, we were able to identify some of our favorite characters in each of these books, and let’s just say they weren’t human. Read on to take a peek into our favorite worlds that are home to our favorite furry sidekicks.

Kal the Brown Bear: North is the Night by Emily Rath

Two bold young women defy the gods and mortals, living and dead, in this darkly mythical, Finnish folklore-inspired romantasy duology for readers of Katherine Arden, T. Kingfisher, and The Witch’s Heart by Genevieve Gornichec.

In the Finnish wilderness, more than wolves roam the dark forests. For Siiri and Aina, summer’s fading light is a harbinger of unwelcome change. Land-hungry Swedes venture north, threatening the peace; a zealous Christian priest denounces the old ways; and young women have begun to disappear.

Hawk the F.B.I. K-9 : Summit’s Edge by Sara Driscoll

FBI handler Meg Jennings and her K-9 partner, Hawk, vie to rescue plane crash survivors from a Colorado mountain—and contend with a hijacker determined to stop them. For fans of harder-edged crime fiction by authors like Melinda Leigh, Kendra Elliot, Iris Johansen, and Robert Krais.

As long as there’s hope of finding life, no mission is too dangerous for Meg Jennings and her colleagues in the FBI K-9 unit. But locating the wreckage of a hijacked private plane high in the Elk Mountains of Colorado is treacherous in a multitude of ways—some of them impossible for even a seasoned team to predict.
