Once things actually started happening, the story got really good. I found the romance at the end a bit forced, but we're dealing with two very awkward folks so I'll give them a pass.

I thought the book was a bit overpriced, so I went with audio-book, but I'll pick up the Kindle version after a price drop. ( )

For me, the quality of these books is going down. The attention gets divided over too many places, and the story is a bit more bland. It was still entertaining and cozy, though. ( )

This is an amazing series, if you haven't started it yet, please go do that now! You won't be disappointed! :D

Worldbuilding, as always, was very good. We move through several towns where Intuits and the Others live, and of course, our beloved Lakeside Courtyard.
Scenes and environments were well detailed, triggering memories from previous books as well as putting new locations on our map.

Character development was great. Meg continues to grow, step by little step, even though the events in this book force her to go even more out of her comfort zone. Being the one other cassandra sangue look to for guidance and help is not a small thing. But she has her female pack and the Courtyard residents te help her.
I like how all the characters have such diverse and rich stories. This book really does center around the human packs the Courtyard seems to be growing and I look forward to reading more how they interact :)

Pacing and flow were great. Once you get to the good stuff, you really, really (yes, really) want to continue reading and find out what happens next! Meh, who needs sleep anyway, right?

The book itself was well written with no (noticeable) errors. There is no sex described in this book (if that is important to you).

All in all, I just really love this series and recommend everyone to at least try the first book. Can't wait to get going on book 5! ( )
