Howl

Wolf series

This has been a good series as Elisabeth learns what life as a wolf would be like for her. The writing is well done and flows well. Elisabeth, however, grows into a very unlikable character now through this second book. Not sure how she will mature by the end, but she consistently runs and mistrusts Abraham. A couple issues each book would be realistic but even after so much truths are revealed by both of them, after she bonds with his sister after their bad relationship, she allows the same person to keep eroding things even though she knows her. It’s exhausting constantly reading her telling Abraham chapter after chapter in both books so far how she needs to go and it won’t work and it’s all a mistake. He is so patient and loving each and every time, never doing anything but be ‘alpha-ish’ with leading. Her resentment of that, of course, being alone and independent, makes sense. But the constant same issue, the supposed lying and deception, takes up so many pages that would make the books shorter if they weren’t so many! Nervous to buy the last book because I’m sure it won’t be much better.
