Struggling actress Jess finds a 5 year old boy who has run away. They have an encounter with the boy’s father that is awful – violent and bloody, and they go on the run. While they are on the run from the boy’s father, there are scary events that happen. Then the wolf comes home.
I will start off this review saying that this book was not for me. I don’t really read fantasy or paranormal books often (or at all really). I picked this book up because it was a book club read for my neighborhood book club.
All that to say.. this wasn’t for me, I didn’t enjoy it. I was bored, and the suspension of belief I had to have for this book was too much for me. It’s one thing to have a fantasy world and fantasy elements within that world. It’s another for me to believe some of this stuff in my world.
I will say that the ending realization was good. But other than that… yeah.. not for me. HOWEVER, there are a ton of people that loved this book. I think maybe if I enjoyed this genre, I would have liked it more. So take what I say with a grain of salt!
