In this striking literary debut, Carol Rifka Brunt unfolds a moving story of love, grief, and renewal as two lonely people become the unlikeliest of friends and find that sometimes you don't know you've lost someone until you've found them. NATIONAL BESTSELLER - NAMED A FAVORITE READ BY GILLIAN FLYNN - WINNER OF THE ALEX AWARD 1987. There's only one person who has ever truly understood fourteen-year-old June Elbus, and that's her uncle, the renowned painter Finn Weiss. Shy at school and distant from her older sister, June can only be herself in Finn's company; he is her godfather, confidant, and best friend. So when he dies, far too young, of a mysterious illness her mother can barely speak about, June's world is turned upside down. But Finn's death brings a surprise acquaintance into June's life--someone who will help her to heal, and to question what she thinks she knows about Finn, her family, and even her own heart. At Finn's funeral, June notices a strange man lingering just beyond the crowd. A few days later, she receives a package in the mail. Inside is a beautiful teapot she recognizes from Finn's apartment, and a note from Toby, the stranger, asking for an opportunity to meet. As the two begin to spend time together, June realizes she's not the only one who misses Finn, and if she can bring herself to trust this unexpected friend, he just might be the one she needs the most. An emotionally charged coming-of-age novel, Tell the Wolves I'm Home is a tender story of love lost and found, an unforgettable portrait of the way compassion can make us whole again. Praise for Tell the Wolves I'm Home "A dazzling debut novel."--O: The Oprah Magazine "This compassionate and vital novel will rivet readers until the very end. . . . The narrative is as tender and raw as an exposed nerve, pulsing with the sharpest agonies and ecstasies of the human condition."--BookPage
"Tremendously moving."--The Wall Street Journal "Transcendent . . . Peopled by characters who will live in readers' imaginations long after the final page is turned, Brunt's novel is a beautifully bittersweet mixture of heartbreak and hope."--Booklist (starred review)
"Carol Rifka Brunt establishes herself as an emerging author to watch."--Minneapolis Star Tribune "Touching and ultimately hopeful."--People Look for special features inside. Join the Random House Reader's Circle for author chats and more.

UGH SO GOOD!!!
Format: Paperback
Such a good book! The way the story is written and how the characters are portrayed leaves you wanting more! A tad bit of a slow burn but so so good and worth the wait! Personally I bought both the book and audio book because I couldn't put it down! This book had me (A man) kicking my feet like a little girl and holding back tears throughout the story. I just love love and this story is just so beautifully written!

Slow burn with a sprinkle of fantasy.
Format: Kindle
It was alright. Written well. Story was decent. But it just lacked something.
It's the slowest burn I've ever read, which is fine.
I felt like the knight (main character) was kind of weak and whiney… And I expected the strength of a knight!
The first chapter is filled with a lot of background information, but then it's like the story doesn't really reference it again. I would have liked a bit more information that first chapter before just heading right into the story in chapter 2.
Things could have been explained more in general. There could have been a lot more detail and explanation abiut the fantasy side of the book. It was just like a straight romance with a sprinkle of fantasy.
Overall, it was decent, but I probably wouldn't recommend it to someone unless they asked specifically for a slow burn with a little bit of fantasy.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

A Forbidden Romance With Teeth
Format: Paperback
First off: I loved the couple. Della, our acting princess, and her sharp wit and determination to survive were a refreshing change from the damsel type princess. Galeon was a woman of honour and yet so head over heels with the fake princess that she can't keep away.
Birch does a great job of building a magical world and drawing you into it so that you kept turning pages until the end. And that page-turning was also spurred by the slow burn will-they-won't-they romance between the heroines who had much to lose if they crossed the line. I've purchased all three novels and will review Her Blushing Hero just as soon as I've finished.

AMAZINGGGGG
Format: Kindle
My first sapphic read and i think I’ll forever be attached to her writing! Already finished the consecutive two books in the series and I’m back to rereading them all! Such a great author to draw up such vivid pictures through words, especially the spicy parts! Great slow burn, so much action and lesbians are normalized in this world??? I loveeee it! Thank you Ms. Mariah for giving your readers a beautiful place to escape! Can hardly wait for spring when she releases the 4th book 😍
