tbix24 's review for:
Tell the Wolves I'm Home
by Carol Rifka Brunt
I read this book as a plan to read a missed popular book from 2012 onward every month, thanks to an online book club’s challenge. I can see why this book was popular when released. It took me a while to disconnect from today’s world and societal views and put my “over a decade ago” pants on when trying to connect to the book. At first I was looking at the wrong things as the emphasis of the novel but when talking to a friend about it, I realized I was focusing on the things that were just part of the story, not THE story. I did not love the plot, and really disliked Greta throughout- which of course is by design, but prevented me from loving the sister relationship. Overall, a book about grief and the teenage experience is something I could appreciate, I just wish I read it 12 years ago.
