What Big Teeth by Rose Szabo
2 out of 5 stars
Goodreads Description: Eleanor Zarrin has been estranged from her wild family for years. When she flees boarding school after a horrifying incident, she goes to the only place she thinks is safe: the home she left behind. But when she gets there, she struggles to fit in with her monstrous relatives, who prowl the woods around the family estate and read fortunes in the guts of birds. Eleanor finds herself desperately trying to hold the family together — in order to save them all, Eleanor must learn to embrace her family of monsters and tame the darkness inside her.
I received an ARC of What Big Teeth from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. It was published on February 2nd.
I really wanted to love What Big Teeth, but sadly it wasn’t for me. At the start I was really into it and was enjoying my time reading it, but then it started to get a little confusing and a little too weird for me. Some things were just not making sense to me. I feel like some things were not explained enough. I’m not really sure what I think about any of the characters. It ended up being hard to connect with them. I did really like the family aspect to the story though. I was really bummed out that I struggled a bit with wanting to finish the book, because at the beginning it was really interesting and I liked it. In the end it was only just an okay read for me. I would still recommend it though. I think others will really enjoy it, but it just wasn’t for me.
I was hoping to get on and blog hop over the weekend, but I didn’t get the chance to do so. 😦 But I promise that I will do that in the next few days. Life just gets in the way sometimes, unfortunately. I will definitely catch up with you this week though and I am really looking forward to doing so! Feel free to link me to any posts you think I should check out too. ❤

I hope you have a great day!
Sorry this one wasn’t good for you.
Yeah, I’m sad it wasn’t for me. But I guess they can’t all be.
A shame this one didn’t work for you!
Yes 😦 I was so bummed that it didn’t work out too well for me.
Ooh, that rating. I’ve been keeping my eye on this one but I have yet to be sold on it. Sorry to hear that you struggle to get through this one. Never a good sign. Hope your next read works out better.
It sounded so good and I was excited to read it. I stayed away from reviews and such, so I really had no idea about all the mixed reviews or what people were saying. Oh well. Just didn’t work out for me.

I hope you like this one more than I did! 🙂
