Tell the Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt

2.0

I thought that the subject matter and time period the novel was set in were unique and interesting (the AIDS crisis of the 80s), but I just couldn't get into the story. The pacing was slow, and the characters didn't appeal to me as they felt forced and unrealistic. I finally sped-read through the last 100 or so pages as it wasn't grabbing me. I, too, was duped by so many of the glowing reviews (which seems to be the case for many readers here). If you do decide to read it, get it from your library so you don't spend any money.
