ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Blood and Chocolate: "She's so cool." A vintage YA throwback.

There are the books that shaped you as a reader, and then there are the books that change you as a reader. Blood and Chocolate is a foundational book for ACOFAE Laura, and claims the title of "First werewolf book she has ever read" so it was only a matter of time before it made it's way to the podcast. Set in a time, a place, a vibe there's no cellphones here as 16 year old Vivienne navigates the recent death of her father which forces her werewolf pack to move to the suburbs where only trouble brews. Isolated and appropriately angsty, Vivienne thinks she's found someone special in a human boy that has a taste for magic. Teenage love wars with pack obligations and loyalty in this standalone read that finds Vivienne struggling to keep the pack safe from outside threats and from herself.
