Kitty Norville is a relatively new werewolf who is resigned to her status at the bottom of the pack. She tries to stay in touch with her human side because of the positives including music, and hosts a late night radio show during which she can play her favorites and takes listener requests. One night a called seems more interested in discussing vampires than Siouxsie and the Banshees, and her discussion with the caller results in an unprecedented interest in the show. Her music show quickly turns into a Dr. Phil for the supernatural. The show's popularity grows, much to the disapproval of Kitty's pack leader, who does not like the exposure Kitty's show brings to their secret world. He also does not like changes success brings Kitty, who he is accustomed to using and bullying as is accepted in werewolf society. Ultimately her radio show jeopardizes her relationship with her pack and even her life.

I enjoyed this book very much because instead of focusing on action and romance Kitty and the Midnight Hour focuses on its character's development. Kitty is a likable heroine who you will find yourself cheering for by the end of the book. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series.
