I'm not alone. There are other Mystic wolves out there, and now I have to find them. And win the Alpha Trials, get my revenge on the supreme alpha and of course, break my mate's curse. Phew... And I thought things would be easier now that we'd finally completed the mate bond. I was very wrong. When Hunter takes matters into his own hands, a desperate decision escalates the situation from bad to worse. With our new relationship on the line, my jilted wolfy fiancé makes his move, trying to worm his way into my fragile heart. As if dealing with two males wasn't bad enough, the final round of the Alpha Trials takes a dark turn, and an unexpected loss nearly breaks me once again. With my love life in turmoil, the survival of my pack on the line and everything up in the air, the question isn't whether I'll win the trials and get my happily ever after with my mate, but will I live to see the last day of the competition? *** This is an upper YA/NA crossover with schmexy alpha wolves and is best suited for ages 16+. Be warned this is a slow burn enemies-to-lovers romance, and the steaminess factor does increase through the course of the series! ♥ *** Wolfish is set within the world of Azar, along with (in reading order) Hitched, Darkblood Academy, Royally Hitched and Darkblood Prison but it's not necessary to read the other series first to enjoy this one.

For fans of Helen MacDonald’s H is for Hawk and Mary Roach, Erica Berry’s WOLFISH blends science, history, and cultural criticism in a years-long journey to understand our myths about wolves, and track one legendary wolf, OR-7, from the Wallowa Mountains of Oregon Oregon Book Award Finalist * Shortlisted for the 2024 Pacific Northwest Book Award * A Most Anticipated Book of 2023: TIME, Los Angeles Times, Vulture, Salon, Bustle, The Rumpus, Financial Times, Reader's Digest, LitHub, Book Riot, Debutiful, and more! "Exhilarating." —The Washington Post "Wolfish starts with a single wolf and spirals through nuanced investigations of fear, gender, violence, and story. A GORGEOUS achievement." —Blair Braverman, author of Welcome to the Goddamn Ice Cube “This is one of those stories that begins with a female body. Hers was crumpled, roadside, in the ash-colored slush between asphalt and snowbank.” So begins Erica Berry’s kaleidoscopic exploration of wolves, both real and symbolic. At the center of this lyrical inquiry is the legendary OR-7, who roams away from his familial pack in northeastern Oregon. While charting OR-7’s record-breaking journey out of the Wallowa Mountains, Erica simultaneously details her own coming-of-age as she moves away from home and wrestles with inherited beliefs about fear, danger, femininity, and the body. As Erica chronicles her own migration—from crying wolf as a child on her grandfather’s sheep farm to accidentally eating mandrake in Sicily—she searches for new expressions for how to be a brave woman, human, and animal in our warming world. What do stories so long told about wolves tell us about our relationship to fear? How can our society peel back the layers of what scares us? By strategically unspooling the strands of our cultural constructions of predator and prey, and what it means to navigate a world in which we can be both, Erica bridges the gap between human fear and grief through the lens of a wrongfully misunderstood species. Wolfish is for anybody trying to navigate a world that is often scary. A powerful, timeless, and necessary book for our current and future generations.

E-mail to the author by the translator Date: Tue, 10 May 2011 16:23:56 +0100 From: Alessandra Baroni Subject: Re: Ermanno Capelli-Yo Yo Denti di Lupo To: Ermanno Capelli Hello Ermanno, what a pleasure to receive your e-mail! I completed the translation just a few days ago, and now I'm careful revising it to avoid any oversight. When I came into contact with Laura, she brought two books to be translated: I had to choose between yours and another novel. I just read the first pages to decide, I was so excited that I could not wait to start work. I think it took me less than five minutes to tell her my choice! I loved your novel! The more I kept on reading the more I got completely involved in it. The novel, through its irony and its grotesque, can pass important messages, without ever becoming banal, indeed! I must say that I had a lot of fun translating Yo Yo Denti di Lupo. It was a truly pleasure rather than a work. I had the good fortune to spend a year living in the States. This experience has been very helpful in translating your novel, especially for the use of slang and street language, which unfortunately are not taught at the University ... but on the other hand, they are becoming increasingly popular. Really, congratulations for your work and I'm waiting for the next one ... Now, I am a fan of yours! Thanks for the good wishes. A hug Alessandra
