3.5/5

This is a very enjoyable story. I liked the setting, I liked the characters (Vala best bear), I liked it in general. I read it during a very stressing time for me, so it was a perfect vent to relax, which I'm very grateful for.

Some story plot twist are very obvious, however with YA books I've found that feat so common that now, I enjoy seeing how they are actually developed than the plot twist in itself; I think none of the obvious twist were boring, even with the predictability. Some were better, but overall it was very nice. The fox was great, sometimes Cerys's thought felt repetitive, more than with Fox. The bear is still the best and I will stand by that, she should have had more pagetime.

What I liked the most of this book were the monsters. The descriptions are perfect for someone to draw and I'm pretty sure that'd be something horrible and I'd like to see that! Due to the length of the book, they never felt as such a danger, but it was creepy any ways, which I found fascinating!
