Mongrels by Stephen Graham Jones

Monster stories are a staple of Halloween, but they don’t always have to be scary. This dark and hilarious coming-of-age werewolf book was named one of the best books of the year by Tor.com and Book Riot. It was also a finalist for various horror honors like the Shirley Jackson Award and the Bram Stoker Award. Despite these literary horror accolades, worry not — this story is moving rather than chilling as it follows the life of a young boy and his beastly family as they try to find their place in the world.
