Ok read

Good read, but so far, this is my least favorite book of the series. I’m sure you’ve read this in just about every other review, but harboring Harlow really is so much different than the 1st 2 books. I very much enjoyed the darkness of this read and found myself crying over takkar and loving how well written his instability was, but overall, I had to make myself finish this one. This book just didn’t flow as well as the 1st 2. Had I started with this one, I probably would have found it more enjoyable, but I found myself questioning the timeline of things too much; for instance, the guys have been living in the forest for only so many years, yet they didn’t understand the traditions but according to the 1st 2 books these traditions had been in place much longer than the guys’stunt in isolation.. I just don’t enjoy when a series starts messing up on timelines and it happened here a few times with different things, so it really threw off my reading flow.

Yes, this can be read as a stand-alone.
