Harper C.: Five Book Friday: Uncanny Graphic Novels (0 comment)
We are in the thick of winter here in the Pacific Northwest, which means it's dark, damp, and chilly. Rather than escaping to stories with warmer, brighter climates, I personally want nothing more than to dive deep into gothic and uncanny fiction as the wind rattles my windows at night...

Review

Johnsonand#8217;s debutand#8212;her take on the popular werewolf lit genreand#8212;glimmers with mystery and a budding romance amid Romeo and Julietand#8211;like complications. Claire is finally starting to feel like a normal teenager. Itand#8217;s her 16th birthday, popular kids have shown up at her pool party, and wicked cute Matthew seems to like her. Then Claire discovers the family secretand#8212;she and her mother are werewolves. Itand#8217;s an especially inopportune revelation, since a rogue werewolf is killing people in town and Matthewand#8217;s father, a member of the Federal Human Protection Agency, is leading the charge to capture and and#8220;cureand#8221; lycanthropes. Claireand#8217;s feelings for Matthew are too strong for her to obey her motherand#8217;s order to stop seeing him, and her secrets keep piling up as her full transformation approaches. With Claireand#8217;s local pack on the hunt for the rogue and an innocent werewolf in danger, things accelerate quickly as the next full moon approaches. Claireand#8217;s supportive relationship with Matthew is downright enviable, and her struggle to adjust and integrate the two sides of her life rounds out a satisfying story.andlt;BRandgt; --andlt;bandgt;andlt;iandgt;PUBLISHERS WEEKLYandlt;/iandgt;, April 26, 2010andlt;/bandgt;

Review

Johnson weaves a page-turning tale of forbidden love, loyalty, friendship, and deception that will leave readers eager for more. Strong characters and major plot twists coupled with a new twist on werewolf mythology make this a fun and entertaining read that will satisfy fans of the genre. -- andlt;bandgt;Donna Rosenblum,andlt;/bandgt; andlt;bandgt;SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL, April 2010andlt;/bandgt;

Review

Johnson spins out an engaging and provacative riff on the werewolf tradition...Smooth writing and engaging main characters make for an easy read, while a feminist focus offers just a bit more for thoughtful readers....A good summer read for the romantically concerned and monster-obsessed midteen girl. -- andlt;bandgt;Francisca Goldsmit, BOOKLIST, May 15 2010andlt;/bandgt;

Synopsis

Torn between two destinies...
Claire is having the perfect sixteenth birthday. Her pool party is a big success, and gorgeous Matthew keeps chatting and flirting with her as if she's the only girl there. But that night, she discovers something that takes away all sense of normalcy: she's a werewolf.
As Claire is initiated into the pack of female werewolves, she must deal not only with her changing identity, but also with a rogue werewolf who is putting everyone she knows in danger. Claire's new life threatens her blossoming romance with Matthew, whose father is leading the werewolf hunt. Now burdened with a dark secret and pushing the boundaries of forbidden love, Claire is struggling to feel comfortable in either skin. With her lupine loyalty at odds with her human heart, she will make a choice that will change her forever....

Synopsis

Johnson delivers a romantic, fast-paced paranormal debut, in which a girl werewolf falls in love with a human boy.

Synopsis

At Claire Benoits sixteenth birthday party, all anyone can talk about are the recent werewolf attacks that have ravaged her town. Claire, however, is more interested in the flirtations of soccer god Matthew Engle, who graciously ignores the mysterious rash on her hands and ears. His attentions are the highlight of her evening—until she transforms into a werewolf! After learning shes the latest in a long line of she-wolves, Claire is compelled to help her pack find and defeat the rogue werewolf whos been killing humans—but she must keep her lupine identity a secret from her new boyfriend Matthew, whose father hunts her kind.
