Wolf, Willow, Witch | 
panMoon attempts to explore womanhood and gender through the lens of a morally grey witch but falls short, in my opinion, as their narrative does not portray what they evidently coveted; female empowerment. Sensualizing a toxic relationship is one of my many qualms with this novella. (1/3).
TheIntrovertedDodoBird Claiming that Tehlor is a vessel for the "universal" female experience bothers me; this is the same woman, after all, who is depicted shattering another woman's knee when she beats her as the lead in Swan Lake. The faux-feminist narrative then attempts to glean sympathy for Tehlor by excusing her behaviour and romantizing an extremely unhealthy relationship. (2/3). 4mo
TheIntrovertedDodoBird The characters were so abhorrent that the reader could not root for a single individual since the leading duo from the first instalment were largely absent until the final two pages. It's peculiar that Moon believes Tehlor is, quote-unquote, "all of us, I think, in one way or another," when she is by no means relatable. Moon's prose was equally hypnotic, though eloquent writing did not redeem this instalment. Disappointing. (3/3). 4mo
