  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

Essentially the Craft meets Mean Girls but with werewolves and has a lesbian MC.

I think this could have been better had there not been so much micro-aggressive racial comments and more subtly in the storytelling.
It would have been more compelling had the girls taken their destiny into their own hands and killed Arianna themselves. Having a third party do so takes away their active autonomy and shows us that they really haven’t learned anything through this story since the point of them becoming werewolves was to have power over their own choices.
