** spoiler alert ** 
 Not much actually happened in terms of plot progression but I didn't find it slow or difficult to read at all. 
 I'm disappointed about the romance aspect though. The hero was not even in the book! I would be very surprised if Donnal said more than 10 lines in total and since we didn't get any development, we didn't get to know him. I have no more knowledge of Donnal than I did at the very start of the series - he follows Kirra around, he's often a wolf, he sleeps next to her. That's it. 
 I am not going to say much about Romar or the cheating, only that I don't like it and certainly don't like reading about it. It was a shame that the cheating didn't end until the very last chapter of the book. This gave no time for Kirra to heal or move on (if she was in love with him) or realise that she didn't love him (if that was the case). It would've been better IMO if when Donnal had left, Kirra had realised that her feelings were not as strong for Romar as she had thought. But this didn't happen. And suddenly Kirra develops a new power to take away Romar's feelings and memories of her and has no issue with using these said powers even though it is WRONG. Don't forget that 100 pages before there was a big morality point on whether to save a child's life by turning her into a dog. 
 To end on a positive note, I do love the friendship between the group and this is what will make me carry on with the series.
