Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin Page Count: 216 Fiction Genre: YA, Fantasy, Paranormal Dates Read: June 30-July 4, 2015 Summary Win is kind of a loner. He does that on purpose. He doesn't want or need friends, just wants to get through the school year without making any waves. How does one do that when you're constantly bullied by the other students? Things change for Win when the new girl arrives at their private school. She wants to be his friend, because she needs him to be; outcasts should stick together. Win doesn't care because he's too consumed with his dark past and realizing that he might just be a werewolf. Review W-O-W!!!! I was quiet surprised by this one. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect with it, but it certainly was not what I got. At first I thought Win was crazy. It just seemed so absurd. But then I thought he was serious, and this book was series (Stephanie Meyer, serious) about the werewolf business. Then, enter the plot-twist. HOLY CRAP! This book just slapped me with a huge WTF moment. I truly did not see that coming, and it really pulled everything together. The ending is tragically sad, yet healing at the same time. Very well done, Ms. Kuehn.
