Two main reasons why I read this book.

It was free.

It had wolves.

But sadly, there were so many things wrong with this story, I’m not really sure where to begin. So let me begin with the most obvious thing: the grammatical errors.

Review for Dragonswood (Wilde Island Chronicles #2) by Janet Lee Carey

Shelved as did not finish, disappointed, unfortunate cover

But throughout the 80 or so pages that I managed to choke down, I was confused by everything. Companion books are not sequels. You do not need one book to read the other. They simply take place in the same realm. But I constantly felt as though I was missing something, which is never a good thing to feel while reading a book.

Characters

Haha characters.
