This book was an in-depth look at what it is like to be a woman and finding power in the monster she can become. 

But also, her sister kinda sucks.

I don’t read horror novels, like ever. But this book changed that for me! Such Sharp Teeth is about rage and self discovery and love and trust and fear and transformation and forgiveness. And damn did I love it. 

Though the body horror was hard for me to stomach at times, the novel is so well written that it was almost easier to swallow. The way Rachel Harrison tackles abuse and trauma is so refreshing and accurate and poignant. It’s rare that traumatic experiences are written with such grace and nuance. And the parallels between Rory and Scarlet’s experiences with bodily autonomy and shame ? Chefs kiss. It was real and raw and wonderful. 

If you want a feminist werewolf healing romance with a snarky and endearing cast of characters, you should absolutely read this book. Even if you’re not normally a “scary book girlie,” this book is so worth the read.

I technically DNF this book, but I skimmed the last half of it and I am glad I didn't finish it. Maybe it is just not my kind of thing. I think the title and plot are a little misleading?

This book had me hooked. I binged the first 6 hours of the audiobook while on a roadtrip. It’s funny, kind of gross and full of so much heart. There were so many parallels; the rage Rory had from her childhood trauma and the rage she felt as the wolf, losing control of her body/life the same way her twin felt being pregnant. I wasn’t expecting a romance (it’s definitely a subplot, there is an HEA but I would not categorize this as a romance) but enjoyed it all the same! I definitely recommend listening to this on audio if you can the narrator did an amazing job!
