First, I'd like to say a thank you to NetGalley for the ARC of Wake the Wild Creatures.
It's just after 4am here in Los Angeles. Body aches and the chills, compliments of flu season, are keeping me awake.
I figure this must be the universe's way of telling me I have time, right now, to start this book.
I'm one chapter in, and I'm really loving Nova's writing style. It's truncated. But also flowing. I love a writer who makes a style their very own!
She brings the reader into the wild woods with such glaring details, right before she dumps you into the nightmare of suburbia.
That was my initial thoughts on Wake the Wild Creatures. And I continued to be enthralled by the characters and their surroundings to the very end. The story jumps timelines often, which is my only true complaint. I hope that Nova does a follow up as I'd love to continue to follow Talia on her journey through life.
