Contains discussion of bestiality - as well as a scene where a werewolf in shift is mounted by a dog, albeit evidently against her will.Antisemitism warning is just in case, for a chapter that involves a Jewish cemetery.

I put complicated for diversity bc the character's race is never mentioned (there's an explanation for that at the end and well as why the main character character doesn't share his name) but I pictured the characters as Native American, since I knew that's the author's identity. There's also a part in the book where a child asks the MC if he's Mexican, which is common for Native Americans. But it's not 100% the characters are BIPOC 🤷♀️

This isn't a traditional horror story - if it even is horror. It's quite slow paced, and it follows an unnamed narrator as he grows up and comes of age, waiting to "wolf out" in his dysfunctional werewolf family without knowing for certain that he has the gene.
I recommend this book, but be vary of the warnings!
