Science Fiction with a Dystopian vibe
Found family
Human/Wolf-dog bonding
Dog-sled Race



I love the movie Iron Will…it features a dog sledding race, the Iditarod with the bonding of a boy and his sled dog. This book really reminded me of that movie…it captured the essence of it but with a girl instead of a boy and a wolf instead of a Siberian Husky. It also has some wonderful found-family vibes, which is where the dash of Guardians of the Galaxy fits in.

I kept seeing a lot of mediocre ratings for this but I really liked it, a lot. The planet she has created here is vivid, striking, and even slightly eerie. I was fully into the story and I’m fairly certain there is going to be another book…and I don’t have a problem with that.
