So far only read/listened to:



Away with the Wolves by Sarah Gailey - 2*

hmmm I read it as a "coming out" story. Yeah she has pain in her human form but I thought that was metaphorically more about what she had to endure when she wasn't being who she wanted to be. When she was one way she had pain/function problems, when she was the other way she caused problems. She has to make a change because of this. Can't continue like this... It ends with a HEA when she accepts that she gets to decide how ("human/wolf") she wants to be and is surrounded by supported friends and a supportive community.

My low rating is because "coming of age" stories usually aren't my interest and not a lot happens. I hope it finds it's right audience.

Read by Erika Ensign on the Uncanny Magazine Podcast Episode 30A.

These covers are always so beautiful.
I started with 'Monsters & Women—Beneath Contempt' by Roxanna Bennett.
