"Since she was a baby, Maren has had serious trouble accepting affection. Any time someone gets too close to her, she's overcome by the desire to eat them. Abandoned by her mother the day after her sixteenth birthday, Maren goes looking for the father she has never known, but finds much more than she bargained for along the way. Faced with a world of fellow eaters, potential enemies, and the prospect of love, Maren realizes she isn't only looking for her father, she is looking for herself. The real question is: will she like who she finds?"--Publisher.
This novel touches on desire and guilt but does little in the way of setting up the nuanced relationship between Maren and Lee that the film provides. I was hoping for a read with heavy themes and a complicated romance; this didn't deliver on either.
