This isn’t your traditional werewolf tale. It’s an ode to motherhood and a witty satire on the malaise of suburban housewives.
Throughout the story, we as the reader are left questioning alongside Nightbitch whether she is actually turning into a dog … or if it’s all in her head. I wouldn’t entirely call this tale Kafkaesque though because our main character finds a strange sense of joy and liberation in her transformation unlike poor Gregor Samsa.
Ultimately, Nightbitch is equal parts bizarre, hilarious, and disturbing. It's a book that doesn't hold back and really packs a bite.
Thank you, NetGalley and Doubleday Books, for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
