This novella companion gives you a little extra Raven. She pops up in book 2 as Lena’s savior. A kind of surrogate mother figure/ older sister that help Lena how to survive in the wild. You don’t really get much background information on her, but you leave really wishing you did. This story gives you a lot of answers, while still leaving out a few more. It shows you why Raven is how she is, and it softens her character up a little bit. You get to she hopes, dreams, and quite a bit of love. She’s a complicated character, but she’s likable all the same. There’s also a hidden surprise fact that I hope to learn more about later on in the third and final book. I am so excited to see where this all goes!

I didn't like Raven in the books at first because I just saw her as being so cold and underhanded with everything she did, especially to Lena. After reading this I understand Raven better and actually like her a lot more.
