    I’d read this book / watch this show.

    The unassuming, nerdy werewolf. Gets picked on by the jocks for being a werewolf, until one of them needs a math tutor in order to play in the next big game and reluctantly gets help from Ashen, the werewolf and an unlikely friendship blossoms.

      ‘Hemlock grove’

      I wouldn’t say it’s good but it had a budget and played with the ideas a bit. There’s not much of a plot, but it’s well executed. Best werewolf transformation sequence. Everyone involved had fun. The (actually teenage) boy vampire feeds, it’s heavily implied, by tracking which girls are menstruating, which is my fav twist on ‘ethical vampire’. It’s got a lot of good pieces but they aren’t assembled into anything spectacular. It just kind of rambles.
