It's a gritty, raw read and for the right person, it would be a fun read. It was a little too extreme for me and I just couldn't get into the story.

I was pulled in immediately but felt so cheated by the length of the book. I wouldn’t even categorize this as a novella. More please.

Author Sue Denver is new to me, but I do like taking chances if the book sounds appealing. Curiosity Kills had an interesting cover and the blurb definitely was interesting sooo…why not.

Color me surprised! This was actually a really great book. I was a quick read, I had the book read in under an hour, but there’s plenty of backstory and the plot was well fleshed out. It had a well-paced build up and enough character story to make me want to read more. I really enjoyed Sara, claws, snark, and all. Her interactions at the end has me looking forward to her next adventure. My only complaint would be I wish it was a bit longer because yes, I enjoyed it that much. This author is worth the read and I would most certainly recommend her and this book to paranormal fans

I received this book from Netgalley. I was not compensated for the book other than the entertainment it provided. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Sue Denver's Curiosity Kills is a simple and fun novella, perfect when you want to destress after a hard day with some good, old werewolf action. Sara Flores, the werewolf private eye (of sorts) is called up to help out a young college boy who stumbles into more than he bargained for, with some hacking. The book is very action-focused happening over just a few days, so you won't get to see much character development. I would have loved to see a bit more about what the Native American heritage means to the boy, and how it affects Sara who does not seem to be of that descent. The writing is very simple, reminiscent of a TV script.

Curiosity Kills is the first novella I have read by Sue Denver. The main character, Sara Flores, is a female previously turned into a werewolf by a member of her Indian tribe. Sara uses her acquired skills and strength to help others. In Curiosity Kills, a college student succeeds in hacking private messages and discovers corporate and political misdeeds, seriously dangerous information for him to have. The book was thoroughly developed, but moved so quickly I finished reading it in one sitting. I look forward to reading more stories by Ms, Denver as she expands the series, and hope she will consider writing a novel.

I haven't read many paranormal books before but I absolutely enjoyed Curiosity Kills. Sara Flores was a fun and excited character who lit up the page. I highly recommend this read. It's fast, fun, and enjoyable.

Inexperience will get this new werewolf killed!

Sara Flores had saved five lives in the year since she was turned — so she wasn’t worried about rescuing a student hacker hiding from goons.

This was really well done and super interesting. Who doesn’t love a paranormal book? I loved the main female character. I think sometimes female characters aren’t portrayed the way they should be due to the narrative writing but Denver did a brilliant job at highlighting this female characters attributes. I really loved this book and would absolutely recommend it to anyone!
