About this listen
From the best-selling author of the Supervillainy saga
Jane Doe is a weredeer, the least-threatening shapechanger species in the world. Blessed with the ability to turn furry at will and psychically read objects, Jane has done her best to live a normal life working as a waitress at the Deerlightful Diner. She has big dreams of escaping life in the supernatural-filled town of Bright Falls, Michigan, and her 18th birthday promises the beginning of her teenage dreams coming true.
Unfortunately, her birthday is ruined by the sudden murder of her best friend's sister in an apparent occult killing. Oh, and her brother is the primary suspect. Allying with an eccentric FBI agent, the local crime lord, and a snarky werecrow, Jane has her work cut out for her in turning her big day around.
Thankfully, she's game.
Set in the same world as Straight Outta Fangton.

Story
What if all the villains of slasher movies were real? What if the movies made about them were just adaptations of real-life killers with supernatural powers? This is a fact known to William and Carrie because their father, Billy the Undying, was one of the worst slashers of all time. So much so that they've spent the past decade in an asylum out of fear they'd end up just like him. Escaping, the two have decided to form a new life on the road. Except, a chance encounter in a dingy diner introduces William to the girl of his dreams.

This fourth wall-breaking, three-book collection showcases Jackson's adventures through fantasy realms, comic book universes, and classic space opera settings. Each fast-paced novel allows Jackson to flex his powers, skills, and wits as he exploits the rules, points out the respective genre's flaws, and undermines godly authority to win the day. All the while laughing at the expense of our beloved tropes. Because that is what villains should do, shouldn’t they?

What if...
I liked the premise for this book, but what I really loved was the world building aspect. What if supernatural races revealed themselves to the public? How society would be changed?
The story is solid and the characters are relatable. You feel an emotional cinection with Jane and the rest of the crew immediately. I really enjoyed the relationships among the inhabitants of Bright Falls and the mysteries of this small town.
This first book in the series is very enjoyable and I cannot wait to see where this story is going!

Good start to a series
This was a very good listen. The story was a bit funny and quirky. It was a nice change to the usual alpha shifter, rip everyone apart, kind of book. The narration was excellent with each character having their own voice and personality.
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

I surprising and inguaging read.
This book surprised in in that I was expecting a funny, snarky detective story. and it was. The surprising part was the development of the world it was set in. The author really took some time to think out the world and the social aspects to the different types of shifters in the book. The way business and government would react to this type of new world was thought out also.
I was originally attracted to this book because it was compared to the Dresden Files. There are similarities however I think the potential for a in depth series and character development is just as good if not better then Jim Butchers early work in the beginning of the Dresden files.
I cant wait to see where C.T. Phipps and Michael Suttkus go from here. Needless to say if you are a fan of urban fantasy and detective stories this would be a book I would definitely recommend to you.

Hilarious shifter mystery!
I Was a Teenage Weredeer
Bright Falls Mysteries Series, Book 1
By: C. T. Phipps, Michael Suttkus
Narrated by: Arielle DeLisle
This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
The only thing better than reading a hilarious Phipps book is having someone else reading it to you, someone professional! Yep, this book was awesome! Who knew deer love puns? It is an informative book too! Lol! They must have a sense of humor because Jane Doe, yes, Doe as in deer, is a weredeer! There is a whole bunch of shifters in this town. Vampires too. There is a serial killer too! Jane is drafted to help find it. Jane really grows up fast! There are a lot of secrets in this little town, some of it Jane is not going to want to know. Lots of action, danger, magic, creatures, mysteries, and humor! Very funny book!
The narration was performed excellently! Great job!

Great Mystery story involving Were-Everything.
I was a bit hesitant to give this book a listen, but after starting I did not want it to stop. Its full of mystery, magic and mayhem surrounding the lives of Were-Deer, Were-Wolves, Were-Ravens (You name it, there is a Shifter version of that). Another great listen from Phipps & Suttkus.

Fun book to listen to
I really enjoyed the cultural and SFF references in this book! These two authors really connected with their inner teen girl and developed interesting characters, good and evil. I’m a huge fan of fantasy and liked the creativity of the world they created - especially a weredeer, I don’t think I’ve ever come across one before.

The story is great and the lead is like a super powered veronica mars but more of a dick. The world building is great and honestly wished it was explored more than beyond the small town. A lot of the characters in the story easily deserve a spin off. I like this series.
