Once There Were Wolves by Charlotte McConaghy
2.0
Whilst I didn’t have a terrible time reading this (the writing is decent), I don’t understand the project of this book. It was messy with too many ideas that never really led anywhere. Ultimately, I found the plot flimsy, and couldn't manage to suspend my disbelief.
Honestly, aspects of it were unnecessary and gratuitous. Much of what existed felt like it was there for shock value. I saw a reviewer refer to it as trauma porn, and I’m inclined to agree.
