A review by isabelleeva
Her Feral Beasts by E.P. Bali

4.0

I enjoyed the read, and will be looking for the next in the series. I wasn't aware that there was a prequel to this and I think it would have been clearer if I had read it. As this starts after she has already met her mates, so it takes a little time to catch up to what is happening.
I like the characters, and that it isn't insta love. There is obviously a connection between some of them, even if they are fighting against it.
Most of the book just seemed to revolve around revenge and nothing much else, and whilst I understand it is a slow burn there seemed to be little development in the plot and characters and was just focused around anger and miscommunication. I think from the next in the series, I would like to see more action and plot development alongside the characters development.
I did have to remind myself that the characters are not 17/18 year old, as there is a lot of pettiness and the lack of any sort of communication was a little repetitive. Why did they make the deal, why would they want to kill their regina? Why did she not ask them why they were hunting her and had made the deal? It just seemed a little confusing especially as she was banished by her father and told never to meet her mates, but then he sends them to capture her and it turns out he wants her back? Feels a little like whiplash.
BUT I did really enjoy the authors writing, and the mystery shrouding the other mates and the overall world created.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
