This topic is open for discussion about Bitten by Kelley Armstrong





Book synopsis:
Elena Michaels is the world’s only female werewolf. And she’s tired of it. Tired of a life spent hiding and protecting, a life where her most important job is hunting down rogue werewolves. Tired of a world that not only accepts the worst in her–her temper, her violence–but requires it. Worst of all, she realizes she’s growing content with that life, with being that person.

So she left the Pack and returned to Toronto where she’s trying to live as a human. When the Pack leader calls asking for her help fighting a sudden uprising, she only agrees because she owes him. Once this is over, she’ll be squared with the Pack and free to live life as a human. Which is what she wants. Really.

I didn't know it was a TV show either.

[Claire]

Oh great ! I've wanted to read it for soooo long. I'm joining in !!!

it might be a slow read for me because it's right in the middle of my exam session, but I need a way to relax every few hours anyway, so I might as well read, right?

Didn't know there was a tv show, good to know

[Hilary]

I will join in on this one!

[K~Terror]

I've had this for awhile now and have been wanting to read it - so I'm definitely planning to join in on this one!

[Anita Reads]

Whoop! I just purchased this one the other day, and will be ready to start the book in the coming weekend. I'd actually almost forgotten about it.

[K~Terror]

I'll probably start this one on Sunday or Monday

[Anita Reads]

I'm planning on starting it today.

I started on this one last night, and I've now read about the first 20% (not sure about which chapter, as it isn't numbered but named. The chapter I'm currently reading was called the Hunt I think)

(view spoiler)[It's a little slow building, but I think it will turn out to be good. I'm not super fond of the MC right now, but I do understand partly why she acts like she does. I don't believe in the relationship between the MC and Philip, I think it's forced and wouldn't hold. I think, and hope for the story that she would stick to the pack after this mission as well (hide spoiler)]

[Anita Reads]

I'm about halfway with the book now. I'm actually liking it better now. I have seen a lot of mixed reviews of this. I do think though (view spoiler)[That Elena is very quick to assume that Clay killed the human found, why wouldn't she believe him, or maybe think that he's been set up by some of those mutt werewolves? That's what I'd do. (hide spoiler)]

[Anita Reads]

Even though I still have my annoyances with the MC, I'm actually liking the story. I think there's a lot of action, but I really still don't understand (view spoiler)[Elena's need to act normal. It's not like she even loves Philip, he's just there to make her life seem normal, and to try and forget who she really is. I hope she starts acting more grown up soon. Right now she acts like a child (hide spoiler)]

btw. I'm 75 % done.
