Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves
by Meg Long
Okay so. Most of my friends know this but I lived in Alaska for about 3 years where I've suffered through below 50 degree weather, ridden on an amusement park ride in the middle of winter and seen the beginning of the Iditarod.
Essentially: it's cold there.
Long made me feel like I was in back in Alaska where it's cold and unforgiving and the wrong decision can kill you. Tundar is a 3 dimensional, living, breathing world that feels real and Sena isn't a perfect "chosen one" protagonist where she figures out her calling before the 1st third of the book ends. She fights with everything she has against healing Iska, against bonding with her, against running the race, against making friends. She's messy and human and imperfect and I want to wrap her up in a blanket.
I, especially, enjoyed that there wasn't any romance in this. Not that it's a bad thing but sometimes, a girl just needs a good story with no romantic leads.
