Stray

When I really love a book or am seriously pulled into it then it takes me a maximum of two days to read it (with school and other stuff) but if I am not loving it that much then it takes me a bit longer. It took me a bit longer to read Stray, now I like the book; it was very good it just didn't hold my interest as much as other books did. The beginning began with a good action filled fight scene but then the pace slows down, we learn about our protagonist, a bit about her background, her life etc and we find out that she likes to complain. Faythe Sander's is a young college student in her mid twenties with plenty of rebellion under her belt. She wants to be treated like an independent woman and not a uterus with legs and we as the reader hear about it a lot along with a couple other things she isn't too happy about. Thankfully the story isn't only about that.

The fight scene was there for a reason, tabbies (female shifters) are being taken and it's the mystery behind the taking that keeps the pace moving. With each new reveal of information or new crime the story moves along more quickly until I am finally gripped and stay with the story until the end.

Stray is a well written book filled with drama and dotted with action. The protagonist was young and therefore annoyingly immature but in the later half of the book I grew to admire her for what a strong woman she was and for finally doing some growing.
