I do wish the author had played a bit more into "real or imagined" moments - they're touched on, but I thought these moments were really powerful and I wish there was a bit more focus on them. Also, throughout the story, I didn't feel as if I were getting any closer to the main character. I figure this could be intentional or not and, again, is an aspect that works fine for a book of this length in my opinion.
I listened to the audiobook, and found the narration fantastic. It might have been easier for me to keep track of which wolves were which if I were physically reading the book, though.
