I honestly liked this a lot more than i thought i would. I was expecting a cheesy wolf book but this was a lot deeper than that and i really appreciated it. 
slow-paced

Meh, I wanted more werewolf. Heavy on familial ties and existential crisis of being a werewolf. Had some funny moments, dialog felt natural. Everyone seems to smoke, which i realize I don’t read a lot in books. A lot of it felt predictable.

I'm not usually one for a romance plot, but when it's wrapped up in a werewolf tale with plenty of dark humour, I can get on board! I loved Rory's wry and funny POV and the relationship with her sister. It felt like an exploration of trauma and female rage woven into an almost cozy-feeling horror "lite" story. There is a little bit of body horror though, so check trigger warnings for this one!

I always enjoy the way Rachel Harrison plays with horror tropes and this was no exception!

This was a fun different take on a werewolf story. I really liked the misdirection it worked really well and kept me on my toes guessing! I appreciate that it the “villain” was not easily guessed and only revealed when the author wanted you to know with the tidbits that finally gave a clue, but was still were subtle.
