 I really enjoyed this. I have enjoyed watching Clay and Elena's evolving relationship. One of Kelley's strengths as a writer is her willingness and ability to change things up and not keep things static. I loved how comfortable they are with each other now, and also seeing Elena's gradual shift into becoming the Alpha. I loved seeing more of the twins, and was delighted that Reese and Noah, the new, young Pack members, were in the story too. I hardly even missed Jeremy. The only thing I really didn't like was the placement of the illustrations: except for the final one, all of them were placed in the wrong chapters. So, the pic of the kids playing in the snow with Elena, is in the chapter before that event happens. It was jarring to be reading and then have this full page illustration that had absolutely nothing to do with what you were reading. Otherwise, I really liked this story.
