Sam is a werewolf, turning into a wolf in the cold winter months, and only human during the summer. Grace is a seemingly ordinary girl, who watches the Wolfpack behind her home, and especially notices Sam, the only wolf with yellow eyes. When the two fall in love, they must fight to keep Sam’s humanity, and bring hope to the wolf pack.

I found this book really boring, I didn’t really care about the characters, and the plot moved too slowly.
The plot devices were too obvious, and there weren’t any surprises. The pacing of the story is much too slow, and nothing much happens for most of the book.

The characters do have some good depth and background, and I wanted to like them, but their personalities are drowning in emotions. If everything is emotional then that emotion carries no weight.

There is literally a scene where Sam is brushing his teeth, and he goes into this internal emotional battle with himself, about longing to keep his humanity. It would be better writing to save the emotional mountains for important places in the plot, instead of wasting the emotional pulse in a boring toothbrushing scene. There is no power in that kind of writing, and I lost interest.

I don’t need five emotional paragraphs about how Sam looked at Grace. And then... she looked back at him. And they looked at each other. And the emotionally-charged look made them realize that their emotions were emotional.

I mean, don’t get me wrong. I’m an emotional person. I love books that make me feel all the things. But when every page is drowning in it, then there is no subtlety, no meaning behind it, and you don’t get the slow build-up that finally delivers a heart-wrenching punch.

Disappointed in this one.
