It is a cliché to say that a book is so good, that you can
help but want to read it again immediately yet I rarely feel that way, I read
constantly, compulsively. I finish a book, and start the next one with the next
breath. When a book is amazing, I might pause for a bit, sit and think about
how I felt reading it. Anna Cowan's Untamed, made me pause not just at end but
as I read, as I tried to understand her Duke, and Kit. As I tried to unravel
these bound up individuals. The tension was such that I had to jump to last
chapter and read the Happily-ever-after, and I didn't understand it. I often
end up jumping to end of a book to judge whether I want to finish a book, to
check if there is something worth reading for. But in Untamed the ending was
something I just couldn't see yet, and it drove me harder into the book, to see
how they could have possibly ended there.

And when I got there I had to go right back to the beginning, to see it all
again with eyes that could now see more.

Lyrical, dark, twisted, beautiful. Thank you Anna.

Come see a rake turned inside out, the hero's journey inverted, and gender
roles blown up!
