I liked this when I was a teenager, but some stuff hasn't aged well and I'm not interested anymore.

blueblips's review against another edition

adventurous funny fast-paced

• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This book has not aged well, but I think I'm keeping it as a guilty pleasure - that's all I'm gonna say about THAT. I think it might be fun to read for people/girls who are within the ages of 15-21 and would like to read about the adventures of a self-confident horny werewolf teenager, but Definitely do not take any morals away from this story. Whew!

Content Warnings

Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Misogyny, Sexism, Sexual assault, Suicidal thoughts, Violence, and Blood

Moderate: Sexual content and Toxic relationship

At the end of chapter 4 there is a 'casual' rape threat made towards the main character by her bunch of wolf guy friends. I had to put the book down for a bit after that. There ar absolutely no ramifications for possessive, objectifying and sexist behaviour in this book in general.
