Thank you Netgalley and publisher for the ARC.

Two girls. Different clans. Taking place in a prehistoric world. This book had alot of things that I was interested it. From adventure to found friendship. You don't see many books written about this time period so I enjoyed the extinct animal encounters like the Mammoths.

This book was enjoyable. The events that took place were very interesting and kept you reading. It also helped that it was such a quick read. The girls were pretty young for this novel listed as YA so I would probably categorize it more in the YR (young reader) rather than the YA group.

Overall, I give this book 3 out of 5 stars and would recommend it to a younger audience.

Thank you so much for the ARC.

Whilst I read this book quickly, and it was an enjoyable read, it was kind of unforgettable. I will say that the writing was great and the story was unique, there aren’t many books around like this.

Thanks to the publisher for providing an eARC of Sisters of the Wolf in exchange for an honest review.

I don't really have a lot to say about this one. I think Ice Age stories are definitely really rare, especially in YA fiction, and I really appreciate the clear love Miller=Schroeder has for the era and how much research it seems was put into this, but the narration style was really really blunt and undefined voice wise and it made it difficult to get invested in the plot or characters. From the very beginning of this story, we're treated with scenes that are clearly supposed to be emotionally impactful, but I was so unaffected that I went and reread the first chapters multiple times because I figured I must have missed something.

This was a very quick read. I don't have much to say about it, because it didn't leave an impact. It kept me entertained, but it won't be sticking in my mind for any length of time.

As soon as I saw the synopsis for this, I knew I needed to have it. It's compared to Clan of the Cave Bear, which is one of my all-time favorite books. This is definitely more middle-grade than Clan of the Cave Bear, but I still enjoyed it. Because this caters to a younger audience, it was a simpler read.

I could've done without much more exploration of our characters and their jounrey. At times, the plot moved so fast that I could barely keep track of what was happening. I wish every event had been a bit more fleshed out, and this had been 100 pages longer. That little bit of extra length really would've helped me connect to the characters

I loved the setting for this. Its such an interesting time period, and allows so much innovation to be done. I loved picturing all of the animals, it was a ton of fun. Once again though, the setting could've been explored in much deeper detail, which would've helped the story out.

Although this wasn't the right book for me, I can definitely see it making a splash! Books set in the Ice age/prehistoric age are super rare, and I'd love to see more of them on the market

Thanks to Netgalley and Patricia Miller-Schroeder for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review!

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. I absolutely adored this book! The story is set in the Ice Age which is very unique, I don't believe that I have ever read a book set in that time. Over all this is a very interesting read and I cant wait to read more from this author.

“the hunters searched for the lion, but it was like a spirit and left no trace. perhaps leeswi, the earth mother, had sent it. if she had, nothing could stop it”

the minute i read the synopsis i fell in love with this book. two ice age teens? separated from their tribes? needing to outwit their pursuer? AND survive the unforgiving wilds? sign me up.

however, it did fall a little flat. its categorized almost everywhere as a YA, but I would definitely put it in middle grade. the writing style was riddled with childish dialogue and onomatopoeia, like “woohee”. but, the dialogue did make sense in a way, as the teens in this book are 13 something. but the writing did not manage to keep me engaged completely, which is why it got 3.5 stars, rounded to four (which is something another reviewer mentioned already so i'll just repeat it).

but let's ignore the negatives and talk about the positives:

a primary reason why i think this is suited for middle grade is because of the ending serving a life lesson. it basically shows you these two girls are not as different as they seem and together they can get a lot done. the passion in this growing friendship was fantastic, along with the journey that led to it. character development was done here in an impressive way. these young characters were refreshing to read about. NOW ONTO MY FAVORITE PART


the setting dude, the setting.

the book won its four stars based on the setting alone. i've been dying for an ice age novel , but i could never find any until this. AND HOLY WAS IT DONE WELL. the book opens with a note from the author that explains that she hopes to get more young people, especially girls, interested in prehistory and paleontology. well patricia, you succeeded. reading every single page, you can definitely see the amount of research that went into this, even though you can barely find information on the ice age. the worldbuilding was so good and so worth reading about. i just, i am obsessed, that is it.

i will be forcing all my younger family members to read this and then we can binge ice age.

This is such an interesting book with a unique premise. This novel is set during the ice age and I don't think I've ever come across a book with that setting before. I love the message of the book and I think the characters were given great development throughout the story. This was overall a fun book!

Quite a nifty YA novel set during the ice age, which shows how teamwork really can overcome almost any obstacle. It's a fun and easy read that is helped even further by the inclusion of short character biographies in the front,which is easy to refer back to if you need to job your memory over some of the unusual names used.

Sisters Of The Wolf is an adventure novel set during an Ice-Age which instantly drew me! We follow Shinoni a daughter of a Shaman and Kenna who is from a group of Neanderthals. The character development of these to characters was so good and showed how if you work together you can achieve near impossible things.
This was a really refreshing adventure novel set in a new landscape that has a great deal of wisdom and knowledge behind. I would highly recommend this book, and hopefully there will be more in the future!

Sisters of the Wolf is a prehistoric adventure of a Cro-Magnon and a Neanderthal girl. They are joined by a wolf. The three encounter dangers and disasters while trying to avoid a dangerous hunter. They are helped by many including a horse and a herd of mammoths as they try to find their way back to safety and family.
The book reminds me of Jean M. Auel’s Clan of the Cave Bear.

This book was received as an ARC from Dundurn Press in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

This book demonstrates what true teamwork and trust is all about. This book proves that anyone can work together and achieve all obstacles no matter if they are friends or enemies. Even the worst enemies can become friends once they realize how much they need each other not only to accomplish their task but in Keena, Shinoni, and Tewa's case its survival in the battle of climate change. I also love the passion expressed by the characters in their tenacity and fortitude they demonstrated throughout the book. Such an enticing and adventurous book that will teach many life lessons along the way.

We will consider adding this title to our YA collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.

I really enjoyed this book! I enjoyed the plot and setting. What I loved most though, was the character development. It doesn't hurt that my favorite animal is also in this book, which is partially what drew me to this book. The writing was very well done and I hope to possibly see more in the future!

Wow! This book really impressed me. It is not something I would normally be drawn to but the storyline piqued my interest. This book was wonderful and so impressive. I loved the characters and the journey they make together. I really enjoyed the fact that this book is set in the ice ages. I think it is a wonderful read for readers of ages, including middle grade readers. It is truly a story of love and growth and it is exactly what we need right now.

This book was so unique and I really enjoyed it! I loved the plat setting and where the author took the characters. It was very interesting and fun to read. I will be recommending this book to all of my friends.
