I read the description for this one and you had me at SAPPHIC MENOPAUSAL WEREWOLVES! Becca, 50, and recently divorced, comes up on her "change of life" and SURPRISE! In this town, that might mean you join the pack of werewolves protecting the town! One day she's just living her life, keeping her head down, and the next... hot flashes, a sudden primal urge to take long runs under the moonlight, and OH YEAH, her cute lesbian neighbor, Erin, is making her feel some type of way!

That is a WHOLE LOT of life changes to process at once, and Becca does not take it all gracefully, but I am here for a snarly, out-of-sorts, doing-her-best, middle-aged mess!

Fantastic popcorn summer read, with the post-menopausal heroines WE DESERVE!… (altro)

My wife gifted me this book and I was a bit leary because the last time I tried to read a lesbian werewolf novel (come on, so much promise!) it was TERRIBLE and I could not finish. But happily, this was a very different book, and I enjoyed it.

I really like how Silver Moon turned the werewolf trope on its head: the local magic in the town of Wolf's Point turns women into werewolves as they go through menopause. (There are not enough stories about mature women, especially in SFF, IMHO.)

I liked Becca, her bravery, her experience of being a wolf, the way the magic called to her, and her willingness to explore the unexpected (both the werewolf and her handsome lady neighbor, natch). Shelley, Erin, and Lizzie were also interesting. Most of the other characters weren't drawn in depth, but I'd totally read more about Becca and Erin and what is in store for them.… (altro)
