It’s late. I stayed up all night to finish it because I knew If I set it down, I’d never pick it up again.
Book one was not a bad book. I didn’t leave that book with a bad taste in my mouth. Obviously, or I wouldn’t have preordered this one.
This was a train wreck.
First, the smexy times talk was atrocious. We’re talking full on sentences and conversations, using the big words and correct grammar and everything! It was absolutely jarring. Mid thrust in the best smexy times of our lives we’re having formal dialogue. What? I’m not picking up what you’re putting down here.
And the characters became either cartoonish or cardboard. Our FMC has zero physical skills. Nooooone. She’s not physically fit or active either. But her portrayal in this book was…. Wacky. She full on runs from the university to her house. For miles, without stopping. Ok. So, now she’s physically capable all of a sudden? Then she literally stands in a parking lot watching her two BFF’s get in a detailed and involved fight with two guys. She didn’t lift a finger. Didn’t scream. Didn’t run. She just watched two alphas beat them down to the point she actually thinks they might be dead. And. Does. Nothing.
So Mrs. Whitlock gets captured and is fully restrained, and THEN our FMC wants to get her licks in??? And gets praised for being such a bad a** for it??? Lols
She can’t be a delicate flower AND GI Jane. You pick a route and stick with it.
On to the next issue.
These alphas are super beta. All of them. They let her leave in pre-heat. They knowingly helped her put herself in harms way.
Lucas let the Drummonds all but destroy his relationship with his pack because he couldn’t establish boundaries or put his omega first.
They walked away from her during her heat. Mid heat. The cops came to ask them to answer some questions downtown and they shrugged and we’re down for it. Sure thing man, I’ll just pull out. They leave her alone in the apartment. MID HEAT. and they weren’t even arrested it was voluntary questions!
So she follows them to the police station, again in raging heat mode!, after being told to stay in her nest with the door locked. She promised she would.
Zero consequences. She again placed herself in immediate peril and disregarded instructions, orders and promises. No big deal though apparently.
And where did this pack name come from??? Pack Solace? There is no significant meaning for this word in either book one or two. I word searched it. It’s literally only used when she names the pack at the very end. Solace is to give comfort in times of distress. So she picked this word out of a hat in thirty seconds while standing in line at the registration office.
And they expand to a pack of 25 with very superficial ties. It’s the first OV I’ve ever read where the pack isn’t emotionally connected and tightly tied.
The 3 year old in the epilogue is speaking like an adult, not a child. That’s long been a huge pet peeve of mine.
Mrs. Drummond, you know, the basically comatose woman? Springs from the couch immediately and becomes the mayor! Along with her suddenly perky husband! What. No.
So. Many. Plot. Moppets.
I get it, they wanted to put a tidy bow on everything. But you can’t just do trash like this.
This book was very disjointed. It came off very juvenile.
There’s a lot more wrong but I’m real tired.
Note to future me: don’t reread this. You’ll be mad that you ignored this.

Why do authors insist on making mediocre omegaverse books into two books? Especially when all the "plot" is so contrived and predictable??
Also I really hate reading about the equivalent to tiktok stars/ any social media influencer - something about it takes me out of the story.

Truthfully I should rate this a 2 star.
The never ending wait for her heat in the first book spilled into this book. Once the heat finally does happen it is constantly interrupted - constantly.
Also all of the build up for this huge conspiracy and interconnected drama falls flat. Really really flat and it just sucks when all the issues get taken care of so quickly and easily. It was like a sucker punch. After trudging through book 1 with all the background info I really was hoping for book 2 to pick up the pace, be just a bit more exciting and add depth to the conflict of this story.
I mean just what really made the FMC special? Was her personality and overall uniqueness (as described by villain) enough to start off all this conspiracy and drama? No not really, especially when his plan at the climax of the book was to just toss her away.

I feel like this book does a good job continuing the weird that is book one honestly. And I feel like you have to look at it through the lens of 'well, a lot of crazy shit is stacking on top of this poor chick, she's allowed to have riotous emotions.' Like. I'm having a weird time in my personal life right now, so really, Ry's weird is like, exactly how stressed it can be, and her reactions make sense.
I will say, the writing for the series is pretty basic grammatically, but it does get detailed and interesting in the plot wrap. That makes total sense for an author's first book series.
So.
For where this author's at? These are pretty phenomenally written. Honestly cannot complain much.

I barely made it through the first book so I don't know why I subjected myself to the second but the writing was painful. The story felt disjointed and while I love chaotic and unhinged stories this one was just a miss for me.

Good, but wish there was more depth. Smut was kinda repetitive… Good ending tho.

Good ending to part 1- felt like the characters really had time to develop their relationship and bonds.

worst than the first one
This is just not good writing. I struggled to get through half of the book. Please, please, please get an editor.

Not great, but not horrible either…okay a little horrible
The second in the Pack Solace series is definitely not as good of a book as the first one. There is way too much on, and jumping around in the plot…and the fact that our FMC just sorta, “gives up,” and tries to run to save her guys, I mean who could blame her?? But it’s added in so very abruptly with no built up!!
I felt cheated, in the end. Like opening up an Oreo just to find the middle missing!
I think Solace and her guys deserved a much more satisfying and happy/content life…a life that isn’t tied up in pages.

Eh it was an ok read. Idk but the second book just didn’t resonate with me at all. I just skimmed it to hurry through it. Took me 30 minutes to read. It was all over the place. All of a sudden, every single alpha wants our FMC. And all of a sudden the entire town started against her?
