I don't quite know what to say this one about a girl who eats people she loves. It's mostly been men, except for the first--her babysitter. On the day after her 16th birthday, her mother abandons her. Maren goes on a quest to find her father, and in turn finds herself. I think this book is saying something about the sexuality of young women, but I didn't catch it quite as clearly as others have. It had some parts I skimmed over, but it was mostly very readable. I don't know. It's different.
