This is a fantastic graphic novel for young adults . When Becca moves to a new town she is quickly befriended by the cool girls who also happen to be werewolves. Fast paced with a riveting storyline I was hooked.

Fun story! Amazing artwork!
This is like what I WANTED the movie, A Promising Young Woman, to be like, but with werewolves. Luring sleazy men to their DEATHS haha.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was sapphic as well!
Even though the book is short, there is a complete story here. I thought the pacing was good.
Overall a great read! Recommend for anyone who had a werewolf phase in their teen years ;)

This was not it. At all. About those reviews, especially from other authors, trying to hype it up as feminist and stepping on the patriarchy...let me save you the trouble: it is none of the above. 

I'll get back to this review...
So this story is supposed to be feminist because the girl squad turn into werewolves and eat predatory men, often teenage boys, but it very quickly devolves into killing any man they have the opportunity to get alone. Because the main character, Becca, accidently kills the boyfriend of the lead wolf girl (Arianna), they have to lay low and start going against the rules set up by the previous pack leader.
