Overall, I’m giving this a pick, as I really do like Stephen Graham Jones unique storytelling style. It’s definitely not my favorite of his books. This feels more like a character study and/or a series of essays. The subject happens to be werewolves. So the prose can be a bit meandering and disconnected. Still worth checking out if you are a fan of the author.
Moderate: Animal cruelty and Animal death
