An IndieBound Bestseller

"Squad is a fast-paced and feminist horror story for every girl who's ever felt like prey, and asks how far a girl should go to hunt the hunters."??Laura Ruby, author of National Book Award Finalist Thirteen Doorways, Wolves Behind Them All

"Squad is a story fitted with the sharpest teeth that chomps down on the patriarchy, and I adored it with my entire vicious heart."??Chloe Gong, author of New York Times??bestselling These Violent Delights

Pretty Little Liars meets Teen Wolf in this sharply funny, and patriarchy-smashing graphic novel from author Maggie Tokuda-Hall and artist Lisa Sterle. When the new girl is invited to join her high school's most popular clique, she can't believe her luck??and she can't believe their secret, either.

When Becca transfers to a high school in an elite San Francisco suburb, she's worried she's not going to fit in. To her surprise, she's immediately adopted by the most popular girls in school. At first glance, Marley, Arianna, and Mandy are perfect. But at a party under a full moon, Becca learns that they also have a big secret.

Becca's new friends are werewolves. Their prey? Slimy boys who take advantage of unsuspecting girls. Eager to be accepted, Becca allows her friends to turn her into a werewolf, and finally, for the first time in her life, she feels like she truly belongs.

But then things get complicated. As their pack begins to buckle under the pressure, their moral high ground gets muddier and muddier??and Becca realizes that she might have feelings for one of her new best friends.

Lisa Sterle's stylish illustrations paired with Maggie Tokuda-Hall's sharp writing make Squad a fierce, haunting, and fast-paced thriller that will resonate with fans of Riverdale, and with readers of This Savage Song, Lumberjanes, and Pa… (plus d'informations)

What if the popular girl squad were secretly werewolves seeking revenge on sexual predators

This is an amoral story, and I wish it wasn’t. I’ve read rape revenge fantasies that handled these complex themes better.

The last names of their victims are references to actual known perpetrators, an interesting little twist. ( )

This was sooo good, even better than I thought it would be! It’s like a mashup of Mean Girls x Teen Wolf x Promising Young Woman. The writing was so good, the art was fantastic! I loved how in the scenes with her mom, Becca would have an internal monologue of what each of them “really meant” when they said certain things. It really showed their misunderstandings and their need for better communication.

The dialogue in general felt real and not like how some shows or books will have teens talking that is totally overdoing it. Also, this being a sapphic werewolf story was really cool to see, as I don’t think I’ve ever seen an f/f relationship in a werewolf story before. ( )

I wish I could rate this higher cuz I loved the story, but the fatphobia, homophobia and attitudes of some of the characters was a little much for me. ( )

Another graphic novel I checked out at the library in an attempt to read the entire short list fro the Ignyte Awards Best Comics Team. Squad is a YA shifter teen graphic novel -- like what Heathers would be if all the Heathers had been werewolves. And, you know, made today, so that they weren't all straight white people.

This story is campy and fun and a little dangerous, and the artwork is bright and colorful with JUST enough gore -- keeping the focus on the interpersonal drama rather than blood and transformations. The story is fast-paced, about girls seeking power within the constraints of their parents, their community, and the expectations of both. When things start to spiral out of control, who will rein them back in?

A perfect popcorn balance of tension, teen rebellion, and dark satisfaction, with a cotton candy perfect queer ending. Good, messy fun. ( )

I liked this more than I expected to, and that's saying something. Very neatly conceived and executed, with a tidy ending that probably has no business feeling as satisfying as it does. I love that Becca, the main character, wasn't perfect; she jumped into something she knew wasn't right at all, solely on the teenage girl impulse to fit in and belong. And the initial lack of regret was also realistic, as the feelings of validation overwhelmed any negative thoughts she might have had. Also, Marley is a veritable cinnamon roll, and I'm so relieved that they made her eminently redeemable in the end. The love story addition might have felt a little tacked on, but I'm willing to overlook the lack of foreshadowing on the grounds that d'awwwwwwww. ( )
