Alpha Trials

Actual rating 3.75 This is the first in a series, and yet, I expected it to be longer. It's good, but I felt like this installment didn't need to end when it did. Regardless, I've acquired the rest of the series and look forward to how the story progresses. I enjoy reading about teen characters that aren't winy and like that the werewolf focus is on females. So far, this is a spice-free story, which is fine for me. We'll see if it stays that way. I look forward to seeing how the dynamic between supernatural species develops. I appreciate the creative details applied to characters and the complexity of the worldbuilding. I like the emphasis on family and sibling bonds portrayed in the story, but not sure how I feel about the parental representation just yet. Recommended to fans of YA urban fantasy.
