Bitten by Noelle Marie
3.0
I think I had a love-hate relationship with this book. It made me laugh. It made me cringe (oh so much, and very often). It made me roll my eyes ands still- it hooked me enough to read it all. And the ending did shock me, so there's always that.
Issues- I like YA books, but I think the main character was just too young and immature and contradictory.
The author had some sort of hang up as referring to the characters as 'the small brunette' 'the blonde' 'the man' which became highly irritating. It would be nice for Bastian to referred to as something other then 'the man' - he's only two years older then our sarcastic MC and it didn't make her growing feelings for him believable.
Her acceptance of her parents 'death' didn't sit well with me. Yes, she fought it and denied it, but you still think she would ask for a phone to ring her sister. Other bitten werewolves families are protected in the werewolf colony- shouldn't Katherine see about protecting her remaining family? Be a bit more concerned?
There were quite a few typos and this version still had notes from the editor in it. Bastian. Oh Bastian. I think this book would have been better with his POV in it. I get his a young Alpha under a lot of pressure- but his temper and moods were so split.
What I did like- the supporting characters. If it wasn't for them I don't know if I would have read this whole book. They added a lot to the story. I did like Bastian, I will just reiterate my point that I think it would be better if some of the story was from his view- maybe then you could understand his conflicting emotions better.
Undecided at the moment if I will read the second one.
