Absolutely love it! :-D
15 years old Penelope becomes the governess to three lovely wolf-children. She is amazing at her job and it's not damaged by the fact that the children are like wolves, kind, obedient, intelligent and curious. Willing to please her, whom they take as the pack leader and surrogate mother.
I love her attitude toward the children - assuming they are intelligent human beings, but using some communication skills she learned from working with an animal trainer, understanding that that is the way the children were raised... I am autistic, and I wish people spend more time trying to figure out new ways of communicating instead of trying to force people to communicate the way they do. :-(
The book ends with some foreshadowing, and this time, because I happen to know at least some things coming, I'm not upset because of the closeness to the edge of the cliff. It's not really a cliffhanger, but there is most certainly enough questions to make me want to read the next book immediately!
I love these characters! Even the villains are enjoyable, even though thoroughly unlikable :-D
I love the story, I love her writing and - I suppose if there were any negatives to talk about, some details that just don't fit the time. Nothing that irritates, though.
