Summary
The first daughter is for the Throne。
The second daughter is for the Wolf。
As the only Second Daughter born in centuries， Red has one purpose - to be sacrificed to the Wolf in the Wood in the hope he'll return the world's captured gods。
Red is almost relieved to go。 Plagued by a dangerous power she can't control， at least she knows that in the Wilderwood， she can't hurt those she loves。 Again。
But the legends lie。 The Wolf is a man， not a monster。 Her magic is a calling， not a curse。 And if she doesn't learn how to use it， the monsters the gods have become will swallow the Wilderwood - and her world - whole。

I was lucky enough to read an early version of FOR THE WOLF and it is easily one of my favorite fantasy novels of all time。 Whitten’s prose is lush and melodic， her characters are complex and engaging， and the story is equal parts romantic and harrowing， with a splash of creepy for good measure。 A monster-infested forest， a world with a history that is not quite what it seems， a brooding ink-stained love interest buried in books， and two smart， capable female leads make this a book you won’t soo I was lucky enough to read an early version of FOR THE WOLF and it is easily one of my favorite fantasy novels of all time。 Whitten’s prose is lush and melodic， her characters are complex and engaging， and the story is equal parts romantic and harrowing， with a splash of creepy for good measure。 A monster-infested forest， a world with a history that is not quite what it seems， a brooding ink-stained love interest buried in books， and two smart， capable female leads make this a book you won’t soon forget。 。。。more

A story where the second born daughter of the queen is sent as a sacrifice to a Wolf， in hopes that the kings of old will return。 Instead of that being the case， Red （second daughter） finds that the Wolf isn't so much a nefarious villain who is going to eat her， but a creature whose blood keeps the evils of the woods at bay。 This book lost me around half way。 A story where the second born daughter of the queen is sent as a sacrifice to a Wolf， in hopes that the kings of old will return。 Instead of that being the case， Red （second daughter） finds that the Wolf isn't so much a nefarious villain who is going to eat her， but a creature whose blood keeps the evils of the woods at bay。 This book lost me around half way。 。。。more

For the Wolf // by Hannah WhittenThis book obviously is based on a fairytale。 Between Red and the Wolf， it's not trying to hide that fact。 But， while reading this， not only did I get Red Riding Hood vibes， it also reminded me of Beauty and the Beast， Snow White， and even Princess Mononoke！ That last one especially with the responsibilities of the main character towards the woods， the magic born from their connection， and the darkness it lends to the entire book。 Because - do not be mistaken: thi For the Wolf // by Hannah WhittenThis book obviously is based on a fairytale。 Between Red and the Wolf， it's not trying to hide that fact。 But， while reading this， not only did I get Red Riding Hood vibes， it also reminded me of Beauty and the Beast， Snow White， and even Princess Mononoke！ That last one especially with the responsibilities of the main character towards the woods， the magic born from their connection， and the darkness it lends to the entire book。 Because - do not be mistaken: this is definitely not a light-hearted Disney story！While it was difficult to hold out hope for a happy ending， the story still - or maybe because of that - kept me intrigued the entire way through as I had a difficult time seeing how it could end well。 The characters' frustrations and hopelessness felt so realistic， which may make it a strenuous read for some， but to me it was very different from my usual reads so I found it interesting to follow along。 I like books that invoke strong feelings， even if they aren't exactly happy ones。 The prose was well done without being too flowery， pretty but functional。 I was able to imagine the scenery so well without getting caught up in it and being distracted from the plot。 While the characters did feel a little cliched here and there， I still found them well-developed and believable。 Their feelings made sense and were well incorporated into the storyline。 I love learning about magic systems and do hope that book 2 will go into a little bit more detail about this than we got this time around。 The setup and contrast is interesting but I do have to be honest and admit that I didn't entirely understand what was going on when she herself finally understood （for lack of better wording to avoid spoilers）。 I am planning on rereading that section to see if it gets clearer upon repeat。 Overall though， I really enjoyed the plot and am looking forward to book 2。 It was difficult to skip the sneak peek for it but I am making myself be patient until I can read it all！Thank you to the author， publisher， and NetGalley for providing me with a free copy in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

4 solid stars for Whitten's debut novel。 Whitten's prose throughout this novel was very enchanting and I enjoyed it very much。 The main character， Red， was well developed making the overall story more character driven than heavy on plot。 I'm still shocked that this book is shelved as adult fantasy， I personally feel it fits more with mature YA fantasy。 This novel was super dynamic and intriguing at the beginning but was slow through the middle however the last 20% was thrilling。 The conclusion h 4 solid stars for Whitten's debut novel。 Whitten's prose throughout this novel was very enchanting and I enjoyed it very much。 The main character， Red， was well developed making the overall story more character driven than heavy on plot。 I'm still shocked that this book is shelved as adult fantasy， I personally feel it fits more with mature YA fantasy。 This novel was super dynamic and intriguing at the beginning but was slow through the middle however the last 20% was thrilling。 The conclusion has me excited for book 2 and I will definitely be continuing on with this series。 This fairytale has themes of self-sacrifice， family values and free will。 Thank you to Netgalley for an ARC of this novel in exchange for an unbiased review。 。。。more

（5/22/2021） 5 stars。For the Wolf is dark and magical story about love and sacrifice。 Whitten has weaved a story that deserves to be adapted to the big screen by the likes of Guillermo Del Toro; only he could pull off a tribute to the fairytale and horror of this story。 The story follows Redarys， the second daughter of Valleyda， who is promised to the wolf of the Wilderwood through a bargain forged centuries ago。 Each second daughter of the royal line that has entered the Wilderwood has perished （5/22/2021） 5 stars。For the Wolf is dark and magical story about love and sacrifice。 Whitten has weaved a story that deserves to be adapted to the big screen by the likes of Guillermo Del Toro; only he could pull off a tribute to the fairytale and horror of this story。 The story follows Redarys， the second daughter of Valleyda， who is promised to the wolf of the Wilderwood through a bargain forged centuries ago。 Each second daughter of the royal line that has entered the Wilderwood has perished and Red spent her whole life trying to fight against this fate。 A fateful event when she was 16 changed her mind but she never discloses what happened with anyone。 When Red leaves for the Wilderwood on her 20th birthday， her loved ones around her are desperate to save her from her seemingly inevitable future。 But when Red arrives at the Black Keep and finds the Wolf， everything she thought she knew about the Wilderwood， the Wolf and the magical bargains that bind the second daughters to the forest is turned on its head。The strongest aspect of the story is Whitten's portrayal of love: familial， platonic and romantic。 Love is what leads many of the characters down the path their on。 Love is the reason for the original bargain between the wolf， the second daughter and the Wilderwood。 Love can save and love can damn。 It has consequences， good and bad。 The cast of characters are all wonderful and driven mostly by the desire to save someone they love。 There are， of course， wicked and evil characters that will take advantage of that and you can't help but be disgusted by their manipulation。The pacing is somewhat slow but its not pages wasted。 It did take me a little while to grasp the magic system of the world and the consequences they have on various characters。 However， the second half of the book gets really interesting to read and I sped through it。 The mystery and implications of certain events have left me a husk of myself; I need book 2 right now！ 。。。more

Thank you NetGalley and Little， Brown Book Group UK for an e-copy of this book。This book is quite complex to review。 First of all， if you are expecting a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood， this is not it。 The main character’s name is Red， she wears a red hood and she is promised to the Wolf – who is not a wolf。 And that’s the extent the retelling will go。 I was surprised to recognise elements from The Beauty and The Beast， which， for some reason， keeps being the favourite fairy tale of all the Thank you NetGalley and Little， Brown Book Group UK for an e-copy of this book。This book is quite complex to review。 First of all， if you are expecting a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood， this is not it。 The main character’s name is Red， she wears a red hood and she is promised to the Wolf – who is not a wolf。 And that’s the extent the retelling will go。 I was surprised to recognise elements from The Beauty and The Beast， which， for some reason， keeps being the favourite fairy tale of all the writers and an infinite source of inspiration （screams into the wild: that’s enough！）。 Well， bummer。 This was a first point deduction to this story。 Another point deduction was the rather confusing introduction and info dump in the beginning， mixed with a super detailed description of the Wilderwood。 Further down in the story， I am sorry to say， it didn’t get easier to grasp。 Red was a very weird character， who I couldn’t relate to。 In the beginning of the story she has given up and accepted her destiny as a sacrifice for the Wolf。 There are a series of quite dark chapters， including the creepy ceremony where she is prepared to be sent as an offer， and I was quite intrigued by the premises。 I was able to turn a blind eye on the confusing settings， and I was ready for the ride but it didn’t get better。 Once she finally enters the Wilderwoods and meets the Wolf she makes it quite clear she is there to stay and she doesn’t want to go。 You are supposed to understand Red’s motivation to stay based on a short account of a very traumatic experience she and her sister Neve went through。 One night they get drunk and enter the Wilderwood， you are given hints that something terrible happened， other than Red getting a spiritual and magical connection with the enchanted woods。 The reader is given few details of that terrible event， chapter after chapter， after chapter… and then it’s the middle of the book and you still don’t know what the heck happened and why Red is so reluctant to go back。 I mean， you get to understand the full picture only when you are too far into the story， so it is difficult to fully get Red’s actions or stubborn behaviour。 Instead， she just comes across as an immature and petulant child。 And on top of that， you have a repetitive plot – so much blood spilt – and a magic system more and more puzzling。 Another thing that made me cringe was the swearing。 I have no problems with swearing in general， but an s-word here and there further prevented me from taking the dramatic tones of the story seriously – or whatever these characters were saying。 The romance was bemusing。 How the writer managed to do insta-love and slow-burn at the same time is a mystery。 Anyway， it wasn’t even justifiable， because falling in love with someone just because he is broody （or because he constantly smells of coffee） is not enough for me （also he is not a wolf as promised）。 I don’t think this book should be categorised as YA but it’s not even adult， probably something in the middle。 I have to admit， it was a bit of a struggle to finish it， I almost DNF’ed at 40%。 The pace of the story was too repetitive， the characters not fully developed and it just didn’t work for me。 It saddens to say this – sigh。 This was another highly awaited release of the summer， which didn’t live up to the hype。 。。。more

it's not an YA and I'm glad of it。 It was what draw me in reading this book and I'm happy to see it wasn't disproved。 However， even if it' isn't an YA in its fullness， it has some YA elements， especially when it comes to the main romance。But I'll start from the beginning。The book is advertised as a retelling of Red Riding Hood but that's not quite right。 If you have been drawn to it because of that you could have a minor disappointment。 If you didn't want to read it for the same reason， don't worry， because it's a really mild retelling。 The main elements that have been taken from the tale are the characteristic red cloak， a forest and the name "Wolf"。 The rest is an original tale with elements from Snowhite and The Beauty and The Beast （kind of）。It was clear for me that the author wanted to set an atmosphere halfway between a fairy-tale and a horror story。 The description of the woods and some events are written as if trying to obtain a horror and upsetting vibe， but it wasn't quite reached for me。The story it's kind of predictable， but not too much， so you are able to enjoy the twists。The main character， Redarys， is the youngest between two sisters。 Traditionally the oldest one， Neve in this case， will ascend to the throne。 The youngest， Red， will be sacrificed to the Forest and to its Wolf in order to encourage the return of Five powerful Kings from the legends。 The main issue for me was the narrative rhythm and the scarce worldbuilding。 The latter is quite poor， but I'll explain myself better。 I see a recent trend in fantasy books confusing worldbuilding with mythology。 But myths are just a part of worldbuilding。 An important part， certainly， but not the only one。 A compelling world building is one that shows the reader lots of aspects of the world the story is set in: geography， well-described settings， etc。 It's also one that gives the idea of a large world with its political and economical mechanisms and history。 Hannah Whitten does a nice job in the historical and mythological part， but it's kind of repetitive focusing on three or four elements。 Maybe it will be deepened in the other books， but the approach to worldbuilding here doesn't convince me。 Then， the geographical part it's quite poor。 We have three settings and the one that it's described best is the forest， but I feel that there could have been more to it， especially if some repetitve concepts were left out。Here I come to the second issue: the rhythm of the story。 It started quite well。 A bit of info dumping but that's is often normal and necessary even if I appreciate more a different and diluted approach。 The thing is that this info dumping continued through 30% of the book， some concepts were repeated too often when it was not necessary and some conclusions where easy to draw for the reader， while for Red it took almost the entire book。 This last part could be ok if well told， but I felt it wasn't compelling as it could have due to the repetitions， as I've said before。 I found the pace slow and sometimes a little bit boring with little insight on events and characters to justify it。 Again， if some concepts that had already been written hadn't been repeated it would have worked better， at least for me。The next thing: the relationship between Red and Neve。 It should be the strong link that stirs the plot， Neve looking for Red， but it's based on the reader inconditional trust that this relationship is strong as it's been said。 You do not have time to really appreciate the love between the two sisters， you can only take the author's word on that。 It's like it's being said: "They are sister and they love each other。 Accept it。 I can't show it to you now through in depth memories and all"。 And we are talking about a 464 pages book， so there should have been time。So， those are the critical points in the book， according to me: rhythm （even if it gets better in the last 20%）， worldbuilding （too scarce even for a first book）， some writing regarding relationships。 There are some nice ideas and the style is good， but overall it could have been better structured so that every aspect could be enjoyed and repetitions avoided。Next: the main romance。 There will be spoilers about it， so if you don't want to read it， skip it and go to the next paragraph。The pair Red-Wolf it's quite obvious from the start and that's totally fine， it could be the reason you would want to read the book。 The "problem" here is that it's again quite repetitive in its dynamics: getting close-walk through the forest-danger-getting apart and so on。 It becomes quite frustrating reading about Red saying the same things to the Wolf over and over。 And I think that when they finally get there， this incredibile love that has presumably grown can't be felt so much by the readers。 And that's maybe because even if it's a character driven plot the glimpses on the characters psychology are focused on the same elements over and over。That been said， I don't think this is a "bad" fantasy book。 I have read some bad-written， bad-developed fantasy novels and this is better than those。 I didn't really liked it， even if I was ready to love it， as always with the books I read。The horror elements are a nice touch， I wish they would have been better placed and more vividly described I hope it will happen in the sequels。The mythology and magic linked to the forest is well thought but I hope it will be deepened （for example more insights on the religious system， because it's quite strange how it could stand like this。 Again the reader it's asked to trust what's been said even if the info are little and the historical facts are superficial）。The secondary characters have the potential for developing and seem quite interesting so I hope it will be given them some space to be known by the reader。I also hope to see more about Neve and Red past because it was only mentioned focusing on the same points。 The same goes with the Wolf。I will read the sequels to see where they will end and I'm curious about that， but this is not a book I would recommend to those who love a balance between a well written world building and in depth character developement as do I。 However I think it could be enjoyed as a light read from those who appreciated "The Lunar Chronciles"， even if it's quite different from those and even If I appreciated more "Cinder" than "For The Wolf"。The overall vote is 2。5/5 ⭐I didn't dislike it， but I didn't like it either。 It's almost there but not quite; I am curious to see how the author will grow。 。。。more

Thank you for the ARK book。 I loved the idea of this adult fantasy， but I just never became interested in the characters。 There was was no buy in for the storyline for me。 The characters seemed flat and the love triangle was juvenile。 I love the cover。 I love the second daughter idea。 I really hated all the bleeding！！
