Pride Run A Wolf Pride novel book 1 eBook Cat Kalen

This book was descriptive and engaging.
Then, I got to the 57% mark, and something felt strange to me about the main character's actions.
However, the author turned it around again shortly after the 57% scare.
And then TOTALLY DELIVERED the most awesome story! I GOT Pride's feelings, impulses, deep-seated and primal responses to her world; Kalen knows how to SHARE the experience of what Pride's life is like, and that counts tremendously to me. Can I give 7 stars?

Pride Run A Wolf Pride novel book 1 eBook Cat Kalen Reviews

This werewolf chick named Pride, escapes from her compound and goes on the run with a super hot alpha as they evade their various pursuers. I thought this book was pretty good and I didn't regret paying $5 for it.

Due to the reviews on the front page, I hadn't been expecting much romance, but now that I've actually read the book myself I'm wondering if those reviewers actually read the same book... I mean, I wouldn't label this straight "romance," (more like YA UF) but the romance was definitely a major part of the plot in this book--in fact, it's pretty much central to it...

So why only 3 stars? I knocked off one because throughout this book, I found the first person present tense narration distracting. I've never been a big fan of this type of narration, but usually, once I get into a book I stop noticing it. That didn't happen here. It felt like there was too much telling and not enough showing (description), as every sentence was like I did this, I did that, he looked at me like this, etc. Still, it didn't ruin the book for me and depending on what you're used to, you might not even notice it.

Another thing is, I would've given this book 4 stars if not for the ending. It seemed very rushed and almost anticlimactic (not to mention hokey). It also seemed to highlight the lack of development--which I hadn't really noticed or cared about up until that point. Maybe it's all being saved for the sequel? I dunno, and the thing is, I'm no longer sure that I want to do that one, as everything felt like it had gone all one-dimensional by the end of this one.

Anyways, if you're a YA cruising for more cheap kindle werewolf reads maybe check out Moon Spell (The Tale of Lunarmorte #1) in addition to this one. I thought Pride's Run was way better (way less melodramatic), but plenty of people seem to like that one too (it kinda reminded me of Nightshade Book 1.
Pride's Run begins with Pride being help captive by her Master. She's not the only one being held though. There are several of them like her, and when she finally gets the last straw she realizes she must get out before it's too late.

That proves harder than she thought, and she ends up finding an ally named Logan along the way. However, Logan is also keeping secrets, and as they continue on their journey they must come to trust each other before it is too late.

Pride's Run starts off very interesting. It was something new and fresh, and I just adored it. However, when it came to Pride and Logan I had conflicted feelings. I didn't really feel much of a connection between them. It was hard for me to understand it.
Then there was the issue with Stone that didn't make a lot of sense to me either.

Other than that I really enjoyed this story. It had a very fierce heroine that I truly admired, and I enjoyed reading this one.
It's a slow-moving book, strange and difficult to get into. Too much explanation, description and info-dumping in the beginning, yet the world-building was lacking. I couldn't get a clear picture of what exactly a Lupher is. I thought they were shapeshifters but it's clear they aren't. They do "shade" (transform) but not into an animal. When they have shaded, they still look the same except for having fangs and growing claws where fingernails used to be, oh and thickened skin on their torso which protects vital organs from getting injured. Yet they still shed their clothes before shading... why, if your basic form or shape doesn't change? I could not picture the 'thickened skin' thing at all; my mind went to calluses, scaly reptilian hides and Kevlar vests. However, shading does bring out animal instincts and abilities like heightened senses and amplified strength. So... they become an animal that doesn't look like an animal? It was confusing. I also can't quite understand why call it "shading"? Shading makes me think of sketching and drawing or like the shade of a tree and it doesn't make sense to me at all in this context. Might as well have made up a word which doesn't exist.

Pride is a tracker. It sounds like an inborn ability, not a trained skill, but there's nothing said as to what makes her such a good tracker. If she has been in captivity all the while, how did the master discover her tracking skills? It is also unclear exactly what is keeping the Luphers from mounting an attack against the master once their collars are released. They are, after all, stronger and faster than the human 'handlers'. They are so cowed, yet I couldn't really see a good reason for it.

The story is written in first person from Pride's POV. She didn't have a unique or engaging voice and I didn't feel her emotions jumping off the page. The narration felt flat and detached, like Pride is just telling us what's happening to her but isn't personally involved. There is a sort of love triangle and although the story doesn't end on a cliffhanger, it feels unfinished. I wasn't feeling the romance, there was zero chemistry between Pride and Logan. They are just pushed together because they're on the run and only have each other to rely on. She had more chemistry and connection with Stone, the other Lupher at the compound she had escaped from. From what I can see, there are at least two more books in this series, priced at $3.82 and $4.99 respectively. Based on what I read here, I don't intend to read the sequels, especially at those prices.
