In this queer, supernatural YA graphic novel from the author of Some Girls Do and the illustrator of Wonder Woman: Warbringer, a reluctant teen werewolf would do anything to be human—if that's what it takes to win her crush's heart. Tessa feels like she doesn’t fit in anywhere. Not at school, where she can’t figure out how to confess the feelings she has for her friend Maddie. And definitely not at home, where the other werewolves in her family make her feel like an outcast because she can’t even shift into her full wolf form yet. Sometimes she thinks her whole life would be easier if she wasn’t a werewolf at all. When word gets out that a group of werewolf hunters has infiltrated her pack’s territory and that they’ve developed a cure that can make werewolves human, Tessa thinks she’s found the answer to her problems. But when she discovers there might be more to the hunters’ plans than anyone knows, it’s up to Tessa to put herself on the line to protect the lives of those she loves most. And the only way to save them is to embrace the wolf inside her that is howling to get out.

A solid 3.5 star for me!
I've been eyeballing this one for a while and was so glad to have gotten a copy at a recent comic con.
I was intrigued by the story and the cover. Not sure how many queer werewolf coming of age stories are out there but this was solid for the perspective of a moody teenager who is still grieving and trying to figure out her romantic life while hiding the fact that she's a werewolf.

Maddie has never felt like she‘s part of her family pack. & when she exposes her werewolf side to a long time crush, she thinks things can‘t get worse. & then the hunters show up.

This was a charming little graphic novel. It‘s full of diverse characters. I loved the threads of community/found family. It‘s also about grief. Maddie‘s father died from cancer, & we get to see how she, her sister, and her mother all deal with that loss. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
