 It's here! It's finally here! It's like Christmas only without the presents, or the pudgy guy in the chimney, or elves, no reindeer, no turkey, no childbirth in a stable . . . so not like Christmas really. But it's exciting nevertheless! Today is the official cover reveal for HAIR IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES 2! Below you'll find the official cover along with links to pre-order your copy! The official release date is October 3rd (just a couple of days before this year's full hunter's moon) so mark your calendars! You can check out my interview with Month9Books regarding what you can expect from the sequel, why I decided to write a werewolf series in the first place, introducing the new villain, and maybe a couple of hints about the mystery surrounding Jeremy . . .  Being a werewolf is no picnic. Colin’s constantly hungry, spends a ton of time shaving, and fights to keep his emotions in check to avoid turning into a giant, drooling, hairy, smelly, howling wolf. But Colin’s not the only creature hanging around the town of Elkwood. Vampires, zombies, goblins, ogres, and other questionable visitors and their various shenanigans have got everyone on edge. Colin just wants to live a normal life, date, and get his homework done on time. But the town of Elkwood needs him. So when a secret government organization asks for his help, will he be able to control the animal inside, or will he give in to the perils of growing up werewolf?

 I'd heard about this show mostly in passing, but having grown up in the UK I wasn't aware of the source material upon which it was based. It wasn't until I learned it was about wrestling that I decided to give it a look. Perfectly compacted into ten 30 minute episodes, this comedy drama about the creation of the 70s/80s reality tv show, Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, is a delightful first season.
Similar to Orange is the New Black, Glow follows the journey of multiple characters, mostly aspiring actresses in this case. Each of the character's individual stories are explored but the true power comes in two elements. Firstly, the writing and story is exceptional, combining the right amount of quirky comedy with interestingly unique characters. Secondly, the real powerhouse of the show is the tri-fector of the three main characters played by Alison Brie, Betty Gilpin, and Marc Maron. The casting here is perfect and the three bring a sense of nuance to the roles that make the characters so likeable despite their flaws. I was particularly surprised by Maron; his role as the slightly washed up and sleazy director of Glow, coming to terms with the girl's lives and finding a connection with many of them was so fun to watch. I truly hope there's a second season! UPDATE: Netflix has announced they've ordered a ten episode second season of Glow!  This series gets better and better. The story of the Tearling takes some interesting twists and turns with a surprising look back at the past (our future) and the great crossing. Kelsea continues to be a dynamic and engaging character, a true queen. I also loved father Tyler's story in the sequel! I highly recommend this series and am already into the third. I know I'm going to be seriously bummed out when I reach the end of this tale. It's a fun world to live in!
