Book Review - Raised By Wolves

Adopted by the Alpha of a werewolf pack after a rogue wolf brutally killed her parents right before her eyes, fifteen-year-old Bryn knows only pack life, and the rigid social hierarchy that controls it.  That doesn't mean that she's averse to breaking a rule or two.  
But when her curiosity gets the better of her and she discovers Chase, a new teen locked in a cage in her guardian's basement, and witnesses him turn into a wolf before her eyes, the horrific memories of her parents' murders return. Bryn becomes obsessed with getting her questions answered, and Chase is the only one who can provide the information she needs.
But in her drive to find the truth, will Bryn push too far beyond the constraints of the pack, forcing her to leave behind her friends, her family, and the identity that she's shaped?

- The book synopsis


Yay! Another book about werewolves. I myself do love a good werewolf book and I had high expectations for this one. Well it started off good but then it started to come of track.
In the beginning of the book, the lead female character Bryn is the only human in an all werewolf pack and the words in the first few chapters helped me understand how this had happened.
I had never read of this sort of thing happening in a werewolves book before so I thought of it as different and at first I liked it.
I managed to get through the first few chapters in no time but then I started to lose interest when Chase came along. I thought that Bryn and Chase relationship was in my words a bit weird . It was so typical for them both to automatically form a bond that I had "I knew that was going to happen" laugh.

So eventually  Bryn breaks how ever many years of rules within the pack just to see, touch or by near him. I mean really? She would just chuck everything she learnt at the window just to be with some guy she has just met?
I guess so.

-skips a whole section of book to explain-

And this whole *Rapid killed her parents, turned him into a werewolf who is now whispering the same words over and over in his head and Bryn can hear the words because of the bond?* Meh, the single worded sentences were annoying to repeat over and over in my mind.

What happened to the page turning chapters at the beginning? I had high hopes for this one but unusually I was let down.
