Lynnie has become something the world has never seen,
something she fears, something wild and as natural as death itself.
Her becoming was only the beginning of the story.
This...this is where the action begins.
Shona's review 5 of 5 stars
It has been 2 years since I read the first instalment in Lynnie's story. There was a few details that were a little hazy so if you have read Becoming it might be a good idea to go back and give it a quick re-read before starting this. Let me just say again... it's been two years since I read Becoming so any emotional attachment I had with Lynnie was long gone and waiting to be rebuilt so when I straight up ugly cried just a few pages in I knew Gilmore had written a winner.
The Lynnie we find in this book isn't the same one we left in Becoming, sure it's only been a few days in Lynnie's timeline but she has changed so much. Finding out more about her beast, learning to live with it and trying to find a way to say goodbye to Rusty and finding a way to move forward with her fate.
I know this is just a novella and loads of people will bemoan the fact that it's such a quick read but that does not take away from the story. Gilmore has done an amazing job and has done Lynnies story proud.

Soul Soured Losing love before it begins can turn the soul sour. With a beast tumbling around in there with it my soul had a fight on its hands. A fight against souring. A fight to be saved. My fight to survive. My fight for an existence on this earth. |
