Bonds of Fenris by S.J. Bell
4.0

This girl loves a good werewolf story, especially if the werewolves are snarky, or sexy. Hey, at least I’m honest. Bonds of Fenris had snarky down like you wouldn’t believe, and a new twist on werewolf lore to boot. I simply couldn’t put it down, and if you have any love for werewolves, you will check it out for yourself.

Talia survived a werewolf attack, but her life is still essentially over, because she can’t do anything that normal people do anymore. She had to leave her family to join her pack, because being around people makes the wolf stronger, and besides, it’s a bit hard to explain if you turn furry every month. But life in the pack isn’t all it’s cracked up to be either – tensions get high, the alpha is an entitled little brat, and there’s the challenge of trying to go to school and hold a job when the scent of people makes you think of food.

Then one night, she meets a lone wolf who is actual able to resume his human form at will on the full moon. As Talia’s hold on normal life gets more tenuous, she begs him to teach her how to control the wolf… But it will require her to completely change the way she views herself and her inner wolf.

I enjoyed every page of this book, both because of the awesome characters and plotline, and because it was simply a completely different take on werewolves that I found completely enthralling.
