I received an advanced reader's copy of The Tenants of 7C. The Tenants of 7C is an urban fantasy novel consisting of short related stories.This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. Where do supernatural beings call home in the heart of a modern human city? For werewolf Nick, home is 7C, an apartment above (sort of) the bakery he does deliveries for when not in school or watching anime with his demon roommate. In this collection of interconnected stories Nick faces danger from human hunters, evil pigeons and 7C itself. This beginning story was the weakest but the rest of the book more than made up for it. Nick and tacky are a supernatural Odd Couple who work well together when facing danger. A good start to this urban fantasy series. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.I was pleasantly surprised by this book. The synopsis did absolutely not do this book any justice. Everything from the plot lines to the characters to the setting were all such original ideas that I couldn't help but be surprised and enthralled at every turn. From the moment that the apartment (7C) was described I was completely hooked. I wanted to be there, exploring it. I wanted to talk to the characters and ask them questions, get to know them. All except for Claire, who is the most unlikeable character in the book. The book was short, and was surprisingly full of conflict for a book of it's size. It didn't dwell on any one thing in particular or drag anything circumstances out, so there were no dull parts in the book. It was a nice smooth, descriptive and interesting read that I enjoyed far more than I expected to. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

Pertence à sérieHeaven & Earth [Degan] (Volume 1) Contém
On a back alley in Toronto's Kensington Market, above the Heaven & Earth Bakery, there's an apartment with a room for rent. The rent is negotiable. The location varies. Humans need not apply. For Nick, who calls 7C home, real life can be a lot weirder than his friends' role-playing games. Between regular stints at his job delivering bread and cinnamon buns to the otherworldly population of the city, these days he finds himself dodging attacks from vampire-hunting tourists, possessed pigeons, and his boss's unborn child. He really shouldn't waste time worrying whether his roommate Takehiko likes him-dude's not even human. Come to think of it, neither is Nick. Welcome to a world of obnoxious fairies and bored vampires, satyrs who love '80s music and demons who play video games. Welcome to 7C. Good luck finding the bathroom.

Other than that these are some pretty fun stories. I love urban fantasy worlds that combine a lot of different types of mythologies, and I also love things set in buildings with rooms that change themselves around so this was a lot of fun for me overall. One thing I am kind of uncertain about at this point is Nick's sexuality - to me it's being implied that he's bisexual but there are also a few things that make me think it's more a case of queerbaiting. BUT I'm not sure so I'm going to hope for the best in that area and plan to continue with the next book. ( )
