Klappentext des Verlags:

Kanada, Anfang der Jahrtausendwende. Mit dem Ziel, ihr Studentendarlehen abzubezahlen, macht sich die junge Historikerin Katie aus Nova Scotia auf ins vom Ölrausch beseelte Alberta an der kanadischen Westküste. Damit reiht sie sich in die lange Tradition der kanadischen Ostküstenbewohner:innen ein, die ihre geliebte Heimat auf der Suche nach Arbeit und Perspektiven verlassen müssen. Auf den Ölsanden Kanadas, wo die Industrie seit Jahren die Landschaft abträgt und die Erde vergiftet, lernt Katie eine harsche Wirklichkeit kennen, in der Traumata an der Tagesordnung sind, aber nie angesprochen werden. Kate Beatons Zeichentalent kommt besonders dann zur Geltung, wenn sie kolossale Maschinen und gigantische Fahrzeuge vor dem Hintergrund der atemberaubenden Natur Westkanadas zeichnet. Ihre erste buchlange Erzählung DUCKS – ZWEI JAHRE IN DEN ÖLSANDEN zeigt eine wenig bekannte Geschichte Kanadas, dem Land, das sich seiner Ideale von Gleichwertigkeit und seiner natürlichen Schönheit rühmt, während es gleichzeitig die Reichtümer seines Bodens ausbeutet und die Würde seiner Bewohner:innen missachtet. Kate Beaton zählt zu den bekanntesten Comic-Zeichnerinnen Nordamerikas. Ihre Web-Comics OBACHT, LUMPENPACK! (Zwerchfell), in denen sie Figuren aus Historie, Pop-Kultur und literarischen Kanon auf den Zahn fühlt, bescherten ihr jede Menge Auszeichnungen sowie zahlreiche Fans, zu denen auch der ehemalige Präsident der USA, Barack Obama, zählt. ZWEI JAHRE IN DEN ÖLSANDEN war auf Barack Obamas jährlicher Empfehlungsliste, als erster Comic überhaupt, und auf den Bestenlisten 2022 der New York Times, des New Yorkers, der Time, Washington Post und vielen weiteren Publikationen. Die deutsche Ausgabe von DUCKS – ZWEI JAHRE IN DEN ÖLSANDEN erscheint als Koproduktion von Reprodukt und Zwerchfell.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Not gonna lie Val kind of annoyed me at the beginning but she grew on me!! Her men are chef’s kisses!!! Holt annoys me some but I can let it slide. I already bought part two so I’m going to be reading that in between work phone calls!!!! DON’T TELL MY BOSS 😂😂😂😂

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.
