Taylor Lautner is set to star in new series ‘Taylor Lautner: Werewolf Hunter’ for Amazon.

The show will follow an alternate reality where, following the filming of ‘TWILIGHT’, he was drawn into a secret society of werewolf trackers who need his unique expertise.

I max out my 15 included audiobook hours with Spotify every month but thinking I’ll BUY extra hours is WILD. You want me to pay to listen to a book (on a service i already pay for) and in the end still not own it? Pass

Happy Caturday! Genuinely don’t know if they are cuddling or if Wyatt is choking Doc out. Truly a toss up with these two

Twin cats, one holding the other in either a headlock or a hug—it’s hard to tell

Doc and Wyatt are sending love and cuddles—they’re very good at those

Just finished The Way of Kings. I read it like 14 years ago and remembered nothing so i had to start over to move forward in the series and damn it it’s still so good. Sanderson really deserves the hype.
