Shrill Dusk by Helen Harper

2.0

I read this without realizing that it takes place in the same setting as the author's Fractured Faery series. This book felt like nearly all set-up, and I didn't become attached to any of the characters. The situation in the book is a sci-fi one that we've seen, in which a city becomes a giant lawless ghetto, except that this book is supposed to be fluffy, so Charley just seems silly in her Pollyanna ways, and her werewolf foil ends up seeming callous in his more realistic/pessimistic views.
