What a wonderful book! Julie is a young teen escaping a forced marriage, and she just joins up with a wolf pack. The wolves all have names and different personalities. This book deserved all the awards it got.

This book was read and re-read over and over in my youth. It taught me the wolves are better people than people and purity of the grief that comes from losing fictional friends

I read this for my reading group in 5th grade and pretended to hate it but then read both sequels. I can't remember the third one at all though.
Also (rape cw), I and my other 10-year-old friends thought it was hiiilarious that there was a mention of sex (or, as the character put it, "mating") in this book and had no idea we were laughing about attempted rape. So we were probably a little young for this. (Also, maybe not the best choice that the implied-to-be-developmentally-disabled character is sexually abusive?)

I love this series, I've read book 3 the most and I really enjoyed going back to the beginning and meeting everyone again.
