A review by stacia_reads
The Shambling Guide to New York City by Mur Lafferty

Did not finish book.

I only read the first 47 pages. I adore the author, Mur Lafferty. I listen to a couple of her podcasts, I Should Be Writing and Ditch Diggers (with Matt Wallace) regularly. But I couldn't get into this book. It's an urban fantasy about a desperate, talented, out-of-work travel guide writer in NYC who finds herself writing a travel guide for the... undead? Werewolves and zombies and other creatures. It's witty and the voice is great, but it's so far outside my comfort zone that I couldn't keep reading. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes that sort of thing; it just wasn't for me. I'll continue to listen to and support Mur. This just wasn't my cup of tea. (I don't really care for tea, either.)

No stars - it was a genre issue, not a writing/book issue.
