Not all these turns will captivate readers: a suggested tragic romance involving Pace and a ghost feels underdeveloped. The hot, sticky summer and smalltown setting lend to the book's ambience-as do other creepy touches, such as a local craftsman who makes artisanal prosthetic limbs. When Liv turned 13, she knew she had changed, but not "what I had become." The hair that grows all over her body and her inner rage still mark her as different four years later, but it takes a mysterious woman living in the forest to tell her what she is, and why she has been cursed with "the frenzy." Readers can enjoy this book both as a chilling fantasy and as a compelling identity quest-because of race, sexuality, and Liv's "change," neither she, her best friend Pace, nor her secret boyfriend, Corey, can live openly. Having offered her twist on the vampire mythos in Pretty Dead, Block sets her sights on lycanthropy. When she was 13, something terrifying and mysterious happened to Liv that she still does not understand, and now, four years later, her dark secret.
