A review by meiklejohn
The Wolf Border by Sarah Hall

Did not finish book.

My new policy: I don't have to finish any book featuring a heroine who a) has successfully and intentionally avoided pregnancy for twenty-some years; b) has unprotected sex (which is wildly out of character) and then apparently just forgets that this act can have a consequence, so does nothing until she realizes she's eight weeks pregnant; c) "I was always meant to be a mommy!!" That's not a character, that's a forced-birther talking point and the rationale behind reproductive coercion. Extra eyerolls in this book because the heroine becoming a mother is written as an explicit parallel to the re-wilding of the wolves she's studying (instinctive, natural, etc).
