Blackpines: The Antlers Witch: The Ones Who Couldn't Let Go Kindle Edition
Harper, on the other hand, has never left his hometown of Blackpines, New Jersey. Life is lonely, but he tells himself he's fine with that—until he looks out the window one night and sees Maya standing on the lawn. Her reappearance heralds trouble, and it soon becomes clear that Lucía isn't the only one missing. What do the disappearances have to do with the mysterious figure known as the Antlers Witch? And why is the man who destroyed Harper's family back in town—and on the same hunt through the thick New Jersey pines?
The Ones Who Couldn't Let Go is the first book in a saga about queer family, coming-of-age, wolves, witch gods, and the quest to be okay.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2025WOW!! What a book!
I did not know what to expect when I started reading, but it was like watching a Netflix episode in an amazing series. Blackpines surprised me and left me wishing I had all the books in the series at my fingertips!
A huge well done to the author!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2023This is a great read. You might need to prepare yourself for it because it is unapologetically human, queer, and fantasy. But if you give it a chance, Addison Lane is a gifted storyteller who brings serious pathos to each of the characters, and serves you a dynamic, sometimes all too real life terrifying, edge of your seat and wanting more narrative. Take your time and explore this. You’ll be happy you did.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2024The town of Blackpines, NJ has werewolf packs, intelligent, sarcastic youths, a diner with great pie and a lot of unexplained mysteries like missing people, including the declared dead dad of Harper, the main POV we encounter in Lane’s first installment in this series. Harper is a little surly (immediately charmed me) but has a big heart and a devastating back story that involves the terrifying villain of a wolf pack taking out his parents when he was a kid. Except his dad’s body was never found. And now his “not exactly” boyfriend Nova might be being held by that same villain’s pack. But why? And now he has to work with Mason, Nova’s ex, who also wants to find Nova. We also hear from Mason and Nova and Harper’s bestie (and Nova’s roommate), Maya, who just wants her boys to be ok. That and hopefully one day make things with work with Lucía. Except someone has her Lucía. And who/what is The Antlers Witch, an archaic shadow casting a murkiness over the storytelling. And Lane can tell a story. Each character has a wonderful internal dialogue with themselves. They know who they are even if they doubt themselves or aren’t sure of their emotional footing. As a result, we enjoy reading each perspective. It only takes a paragraph or two to feel like you have a grasp on each person. And they are each likable for different reasons. Lane does a fantastic job capturing the early adult experience. The sudden freedoms and sudden fears, the uncertainty (and yet the absolute certainty of thinking you know what to do). This is all incredibly human, for a story about werewolves. And that reality makes the paranormal aspect of all of this super gritty, believable, concrete. And that’s how I like my paranormal stories to be, a bitten-tongue feeling, raw, real, a struck nerve of “this is an ordinary thing, so why is it so distracting?” Werewolf life has practical, real world stuff to it. Lane takes everyday mundanity and adds in mystery.
