Sharp Teeth | 
so-soThis was fine. I was expecting the poetry to add more to the book rather than just be more line breaks than normal, and I don‘t think it really managed that. The plot was fine, I can‘t summon much to say about it good or bad, but I was rubbed the wrong way by the many male characters who got names and the female lead being ‘the girl‘. Sigh.

bailedIf I get halfway through your book and everyone has a name except the main woman (who is just called "the girl"), well, the rest of what's going on better be pretty damn impressive. (Spoiler: I ain't impressed.)
I am excited to finally read the werewolf poetry novel, but I am immediately wary of this "one woman that everyone is obsessed with" situation.
I took a book to the creek but got distracted by the beer, the boys and the turtle the dogs found.

This is a verse novel about warring werewolf gangs set in Los Angeles. Praised by Nick Hornby, Barlow successfully avoids easy tricks & gimmicks.
That full morning moon tho. Where my werewolves at? 🌕🐾🐾
90% off used books at Hastings. I got all these for $3.20 😍 Sad they are closing tho...
pickI wasn't sure if I would like this one since it's written in free verse, but it's so good! The story and the stripped down verse sucked me in. A noir fantasy romance: dog catcher falls in love with a werewolf packs' female member. Bizarre in all the right ways.
Lakeside reading. Today has been a very good day. And I'm digging the epic poem that is "Sharp Teeth"
"people wail on television
then, not surprisingly
life just keeps moving on."
Thriftbooks made this recommendation to me, and I thought it sounded like a good book...and it's a poem. Let's do this.
