Thanks for letting me try this book. but it was a little too full on, a little too madcap, a little too many cooks right from the very start, making me wonder if I'd missed a previous book or an extended prologue somewhere, or even possibly a first chapter. It was frankly too confusing to progress beyond the first chapter.

Thank you, however, for the chance to try it out.

I can't wait to read the rest. I've been waiting for shen's book since he was introduced years ago!! March can't come fast enough.

I loved the excerpt and want the full book.

The prologue was interesting and shines new light on Charlie and Max. I knew they were awesome but not that awesome, especially when so young.

I'm curious how Stevie knew that the nurse was going to kill her. She's very young at his point, and shouldn't have gone through puberty yet. Do shifter kids have a better sense of smell then normal humans? Did she smell the drug?

I also got to give Shen props. I laughed about the bamboo and driving the bears away with his noise. It's at an evil genius level of awesome. I'm a little sad that he didn't want to help Stevie more but kinda get it. He's supposed to be watching Kyle, not Stevie. But he has the hots with the girl. He should at least try and play nice.

First let me say I love this authors paranormal romance shifter books and have read them all.

These Badger sisters are beautiful, enduring, vicious, funny, attentive, dangerous and passionate.

I love this book.

I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I loved the first book when Charlie the eldest sister ended up living in a neighborhood full of bears. Stevie is a hybrid part honey badger shifter prodigy with a panic disorder and Shen a happy go lucky giant panda shifter bodyguard. I've only got to read an excerpt from the book, the first chapter but it is good and has me wanting the whole book now!

I can’t wait to read the full book! So far I love Stevie and Shin and I’m sure In A Badger Way is going to be amazing because I loved this preview

The Honey Badgers are back! When I realized that this was Shen and Stevie's story, I was so excited. These two seemed to connect in Hot and Badgered and I was hoping they would be the next couple in the series. In a Badger Way Stevie's having one of her infamous meltdowns and is up to Shen to save the neighborhood, and for that matter, the world from little Stevie.
Although this is just a teaser, I can already tell that this is going to be one exciting ride. I'm impatiently waiting for the book in it's entirety so that I can see how Shen, the laid back Panda, handles the spitfire that Stevie can be. This was a great start to what I can only assume will be a wild and hilariously fun adventure with just the right touch of made for each other chemistry for Stevie and Shen.

This was great excerpt. I just wish there was more! I can't wait for the full book. There isn't really enough to give good thorough review. I really did enjoy what I did get to read. Ms. Laurenston always pleases. I have read and listened to her book many times.

You know when you have a favorite artist and it's been a while since they've released anything. The moment you see something new is coming out you're like that kid who's just walked downstairs and seen all the presents that Santa brought. The wonder and excitement are so much, you feel like you're going to explode. That's how I felt with this book. Shelly Laurenston has this ability to weave incredible stories and I could not wait to start reading this newest book.

In a Badger Way had me laughing from the first page. The characters, wit, and humor that Ms. Laurenston has throughout this book were phenomenal. I absolutely loved Stevie and neurotic behavior. The plot was interesting and an attention grabber. The interaction between the characters priceless. Ms. Laurenston keeps the story flowing and the reader easily entertained.

So as that kid who has gotten everything on my Christmas wish list, In a Badger Way is a wonderfully entertaining book that I will continuously pull out and read over and over again. Thank you, Ms. Laurenston for another great book!

Oh Shen, you poor panda. I knew your fate was sealed as soon as Stevie found out you were a Panda. As much fun as HOT AND BADGERED was, I have a feeling Stevie will give us an even better run for our money in terms of :ahem: settling down.

Look its never a good thing when KYLE is concerned about other people. He can barely bestir himself to be concerned about his blood family. I do kind of want a Kyle book though - I find it interesting he can squash his jackal side SO completely. That really just speaks to the absurd control he has to have over everything.

In a Badger Way is the second book in the Honey Badger Chronicles series. This review is only for the chapter preview of the book. No stars being given at this time as I can't assess that with only a chapter. This is Shen and Stevie's story. From what I read, it seems like a great start to the book. I've read almost every if not every book from this author. She's one of my go to grabs. The one thing I enjoy is the humor and the preview doesn't lack! My only complaint is there is still a long wait for the rest of the book! I really enjoyed the start of the book and can't wait to see where the Stevie and Shen story goes!

Got to read the preview early-so this review is based on that for now! I love how it started and showed how the sisters are from a different point of view than the first book. I especially love how it showed Stevie might actually have reasons to be paranoid. But I especially loved how it showed us that no matter what these sisters will always have each other's backs! I had been hoping for a story about Shen for a while but I wasn't sure about Stevie being the match for him! After the preview, I can definitely see how they could work! As usual it has the humor the other books are known for and definitely makes me want to read the full book! Now that I have read this portion I am impatient for the full thing! A great little tease!

*****ARC EXCERPT REVIEW ONLY, THIS IS NOT THE FULL BOOK REVIEW!!!!***********
**********5 Stop Being A Princess, Stars!!!!!!
Lol!!!! This is just an excerpt and WOW! I'm sooooooo in love with Shen, our resident Panda Bear. I can't believe it! Laurenston paired one of the MacKilligan sisters, Stevie MacKilligan,with my Panda (waaaaaaaa,crying). Lol. However, I am freaking happy for Shen. I have been waiting furrrrevvveeerrr for him to get his story. The beautiful,very strong, silent, eating bamboo all day Shen. (sigh, cue feelings). In this brief excerpt, we get a flashback of the sisters and how Stevie came to be the way she is, at least part of the reason anyway, Lol..
Fast-forward a decade or so later, and Stevie is freaking out because there are bears in her home. Yep, her badger shifter self does not do bears, in her immediate vicinity at all! Lol. So Shen along with our jackal shifter, prodigal, sarcastic loving Kyle Jean-Louis Parker (iI do so love that young man) try to abate her panic as she tries to burrow through the cabinet in order to escape. Hahahahahahahaha....so awesomely funny. I cannot wait for the full book....
