12.27.20 Review:
The moment I picked this up, I couldn't put it down!!! I'm in awe with how the story unfolded. It was a breath of fresh air because it was a lot different with other werewolves stories that I have read. The concept and the other supernatural creatures made it more interesting to read! We love a wolf protecting it's human. I'm such a sucker for that. Unlike other wolves who put their humans in danger.
OMG! You can't end a book like that!!! I am so excited to read the next book. I will surely reread this from time to time.
I would've liked it much more if it was longer. 30 chapter maybe? I wanted more of them. Demi, Sawyer and the Squad. Ahhh! I'm so in love!! Book 2, please come faster!!

I actually liked this book more than the first. I don’t know if it was due to the fact that her love interest was not there for the majority of it or if it was due to the Paladin plot line (which is frankly the only engaging plot-line in the story).
However, this does not deter from the fact that 90% of this series is Demi getting kidnapped by every paranormal group in existence and having Sawyer lose his shit. It gets really boring after the 3rd time.
One good thing about this book was the side characters. A couple new people were introduced that I actually liked reading about.
Still a very cringe book.

Sawyer kind of annoyed me in this book, having little faith in the strength of Demi...
On to book #3!

This book was the first book I have read in which Instagram was integrated as the part of a character's life. There were talks about posts, accounts and followers. Not much, but enough to surprise me as usually the consensus is that the main characters lives in the modern world without having to prove it.
I have read other books of Leia Stone`s and I found them agreeably and witty enough that the name of the author has stuck with me. When I saw this book I said that I had nothing to lose, as anyway I am waiting for the January and February books to be released.
This was a pretty neat linear story. The girl that meets the boy and they have some struggles peppered along the way. Nothing overly complicated, easy to go through. However, my objections would be that even if the book was modern enough to introduce Instagram into conversations, some of the ways in which the relationship between those two was described tended to be stuck in time.
To give credit the characters made some meta-commentaries when it came to the form in which the male lead had to chose his mate and she said that it looks like The Bachelor but for werewolves. But meta commentaries and ironic observations do not make everything better. There were things like she being his and he getting annoyed when she jumps on the dance floor while he is at date with another girl. Him being overly protective and bestows countless presents on her and pays for her education and everytime she mentions that she wants something or she id displeased with something he pops out of nowhere and “fixes” it.

I love this series so much. There’s so much action it really keeps entertained and on your toes. Definitely gives you a whirlwind of emotions from beginning to end. I can’t wait until the third book is released.

CWs: Gun violence, violence, blood, sexual scenes, kidnapping, death, murder, and death of a loved one.
Mention of: rape, cheating, toxic relationships, captivity, and child abuse.
So...I still like the overall idea of this series but I found issue with some of the "out of character" things that happened. If you've hated someone/something you're entire life...it takes more than one person saying, "hey it's not that bad," for someone to forgive and forget. Lets be serious...
Since I read the first 2 back to back and I'm a little annoyed 😅 I'm gonna take a little break before I read the other books. I genuinely want to see where the story goes...I just need a break.
