(2) YA In recounting the gruesome death of her boyfriend, Micah (a compulsive liar) informs us that she wants to finally tell the truth--which begins with her being a werewolf. Larbalestier takes the unreliable narrator to the extreme; readers follow the faintest of trails to figure out what really happened. Micah's story makes addictive reading, and the ambiguous ending will haunt readers.
