I hope Ali Hazelwood writes more paranormal romances because I LOVED THIS. As her first foray into the genre, it really showcases Ali's versatility as a writer.

The werewolf pack dynamics were surprisingly enjoyable, and it gave a fresh perspective on familiar elements. I was always on Team Edward but if this was how Jacob was in Twilight I might've switched sides! 

Sure, the story wasn't perfectโ€“I wasn't a fan of the third act breakup and the plot was all over the place towards the end. But honestly? This entire book was too much fun for me to really mind it. 

Ali writes a solid addition to the paranormal romance genre. Bride was such a captivating read with it's gripping plot and intriguing characters, making it hard to put down.
