Wolfsong by TJ Klune
4.0
“Sometimes, when your heart gets so full, it takes away your voice and all you can do is hold on for dear life.”
This quote sums up my feelings for this phenomenal book that I never want to stop rereading. In the slightest chance, I want somebody to read this book however, I am going to have to elaborate.
So why is this werewolf book with a strange blurb worth picking up? Maybe you don’t like werewolves, maybe you do but do not easily brush this book off. This book is so much more than werewolves it is about belonging, love (platonic, familial, and romantic) past trauma and most importantly uniting despite everything. Admittedly, the blurb isn’t the best to convince the readers from someone who has not yet read the book. Once you actually start reading it T.J Klune’s writing will flow through easily.
This book is very character-driven in the best way possible. There are up to thirteen characters in the pack including the deceased. It sounds very intimidating but you are not bombarded with them rather you start to get strings of information about all the characters and develop a deep sense of connection to them all. Due to how character-driven and beautifully written this book is it will leave you quite emotional. I don’t cry often but this book had me flooding tears and in less than 10% into the book!
Lgbtiqiap representation is very prominent in this book. Majority of the characters are sexually fluid and there is an adorable bisexual coming out scene. No one is judgemental and laughs at someone thinking them to be homophobic. There are also a few m|m couples.
Where is it available? I recommend buying it on kindle format as the paperback is quite expensive due to being out of print and doesn’t support the author, unlike the ebook.
Thank you to Darce B who recommend one of the best books I have ever read.
