I Am Not a Wolf
Ratings1
Average rating5
You are a HUMAN MAN navigating every day life, dating, bus etiquette, and other important human concerns. You are definitely NOT A WOLF. Life is good. You have a job, an apartment in a nice part of town, and an online dating profile that's recently yielded as many as three matches. From the outside, it would appear you're a human man that has all the pieces of a stable and functional life. But you also have a horrible secret. You're not a human man at all. You're a WOLF. Based on the immensely popular Twitter account @SickOfWolves, this interactive story follows you, (who, if anyone asks, is NOT A WOLF) as you go about normal life, making choices that will either reveal your true identity or allow you to keep your cover. Each choice is crucial to your survival and, more importantly, your burgeoning graphic design career. Will you navigate water cooler gossip without arousing suspicion? Can you go on a date without bringing up how much you love ham? Or is it perhaps time to throw this human world to the wind and return to the woods from whence you came?

I thought this was so well done and made me laugh.
From the author: ‘I started writing NOT A WOLF as a way to blow off steam when I was frustrated. When my day job felt like a slog or I was feeling lonely, I'd smash the caps lock key and post my frustrations. What started as an inside joke I'd share with a handful of friends came together as a story about a wolf who desperately wanted to be a human so that he could enthusiastically do all the things we complain about doing. That story eventually became this book.'
The characters were great.
Hank the friendly retiree, Britt the online date, Mike the boring coworker, Gary the ass from sales with his underlings Brent & Brett, Caleb the roommate, The Boss woman, The Executive, and all the animals as well: Kyle the wolf brother, The Queen of Bears, The Lord of All Birds, and the Insect Collective.
I loved when he ate the tiramisu, there's like three things he should not have had in there. There's also the adventure of taking the bus and the great work place commentary and how people can suck or be great.
