 A spitfire main character tries to grow confidence in her own abilities, but fear remains a huge hurdle as she tries to understand the world around her and her budding romance with a wolf-man. 

I love the idea of this book, but I wish that

there had been more development between Red and Eammon. I found that I was frustrated with the lack of communication between the two, and was more invested in the relationship of Fife and Lyra.

I loved the relationship between Neve and Red- I'm glad that the perspective switched between the two sister's in the book. The writing in the book felt reminiscent of fairytales and made me curious to learn more about the world.

A fun times, and I'm definitely picking up the sequel! The description of the magic felt a little messy sometimes, but I loved the characters and the concept of the worlds. For fans of 'Uprooted'.
