There are still many mysteries and questions that needs solving, as slowly Winnie's family gets reintegrated into the wider community of Hemlock Falls.
What I truly loved where the woods surrounding Hemlock Falls, where ou never know who or what you might encounter when you enter into it. The mists add an additional layer of suspense and horror to the scenes within the woods.
And then there is the slow burn romance that has this big huge elephant in the room throughout the whole book and any reader knows from the beginning who the wolf is, and well, can it be said that at some point, the penny drops?

The Hunting Moon was a fantastic sequel! I loved The Luminaries and this follow-up was even more intriguing and mysterious 👀 I flew through his book in an entire day, as the plot was fast-moving and the main character compelling in her trauma, grief and struggles to fit into the mold of her society!
“But then, Winnie has never been a very good Wednesday bear, has she? Her loyalty has always been in the wrong place, and lately, her cause hasn’t aligned with anyone else’s.”
“She hates hope. She hates it. She thought she had killed it four years ago when it was clear that there would never be any fairness for her family, never be any justice.”
In The Hunting Moon we’re discovering more about the Whisperer and the Dianas! ➽ Ever since Winnie found out that her father was framed and left her clues, she’s chasing his mystery and the dangerous Whisperer, that no one wants to believe in. While everyone else is fixated on the werewolf, Winnie knows that there’s a much bigger danger – a brand new nightmare that annihilates everything in its path. She’s got to keep her search hidden from her loved ones, as no one can know she’s close to committing treason in the eyes of her society. I was on the edge of my seat, as Winnie uncovers all the connections and we feel the foreboding sense of danger all around her. We also learn a bit more about the Dianas, the elusive archenemies of the Luminaries, who dabble in forbidden magic. There are some answers, but even more questions in the end and I’m excited to see all the reveals in the next book 👀
