I love the title of this book: “My Teenage Werewolf” by Lauren Kessler. From the title alone you know exactly where this book is going to go. First the author is going to talk about teenage girls, their unpredictability, their changing and wildly swinging moods and the ‘complete mutual hostility of it all’. The author of this book goes bravely where no mom has gone before and let me tell you I just must find out about her discoveries: she heads into the girls locker room. She witnesses the utter coolness of her daughter and her own shabbiness and stupidity. I actually remember those days; days when I wondered how it was I ever managed to get up and get dressed without someone critiquing my fashion sense! Secondly, this book title is the perfect marketing strategy! After all, werewolves and vampires are all the rage right now. Curiousity will reign, and you will just have to pick this one up. But I’d recommend it anyway, especially if you have teenage girls in the house, or if you love someone who has teenage girls in their house. (Dads too, you shouldn’t be exempt.) That should cover everyone!
