I expected it to pick up the pace but it didn't. Although it's main character is a werewolf, the plot focuses on her family and small town more than anything. Some parts were sad or uncomfortable, but I found some parts surprisingly touching and relatable. Kind of fun, but wouldn't read twice. Some great lines.

Another banger from Rachel Harrison. This one with the most perfectly unlikeable main character and themes of motherhood and transformation (wink wink).

As it states it is a werewolf novel, and that part was cool but it just seemed like there should be more to the story.
