I had no idea about this book, but then I saw it in Libby as the Big Library Read, and decided to join in. And I'm glad I did, because this graphic novel was quite good. I don't have much to say about it, but I enjoyed the book. I especially appreciated the cute queer romance. I haven't read much about werewolves, in fact, this might be the first time, but this book was a great start.

Read this one on my son’s recommendation. Gorgeous illustrations and a great story. Young queer black werewolf love, evil vampires, and a 8th grade photography student who still shoots on film. It was a thoughtful little journey and sweet. Max is in 4th grade, but is a pretty advanced reader. Definitely kid appropriate for ages 9 or 10 plus (the “love story” is very junior high crushes).

This book was very hard to put down! It did a great job of catching my attention. I loved the theme of family (both chosen and birth). The characters were fun too. There were times I rooted for the characters and other times they just stressed me out with their choices! Very fun read!
I love how the colors shifted with the mood or time of day. I also loved that each chapter's title page had a cute little photo, it was such a neat detail!

This was such a great story. It speaks so much to family, both chosen and not, and the cycles those endure, to coming of age, and to loss + grief! The artwork was great, this was such a good graphic novel! I feel like there were some gaps in the story that I couldn’t quite get, but this was still a great read and a good experience reading via the Kindle app on my phone for the Big Library Read!

It was a big library read on libby and I needed something light after The Road.
