Heartbroken? Hopeful? I don't know how to feel. A great story, well written and an emotional roller coaster. The ending was so sad, even the little hope given, couldn't help me feeling much better. A must read and highly recommended. I chose to read this book and all opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased. Thanks to NetGalley and Chooseco!

This story starts right where Weregirl left off. This story picks up steam as it goes and by the end is a full blown locomotive. There are twists and turns and secrets and lies. We get a whole new cast of friends and enemies and are not sure where a few of them fall. We find out more about Nessa’s family and there are a few surprises there. This story left me panting for the final book in the trilogy.

Nessa is becoming more accustomed to transforming into a wolf. She spends time running with her boyfriend, Luc, who shifts into a wolf as well. But Luc has been shifting longer and feels his destiny is one day to remain a wolf and not transform back. Nessa’s world is turned upside down on the day the FBI descend, search their home, and arrest her mother for crimes Nessa feels couldn’t possibly have happened. Nessa discovers there is so much more to the story than she could have imagined. She now has to learn why she was chosen to save the wolves and what is her destiny. I so loved this book and cannot wait to start the third one now!

“Chimera”, the second book in the Weregirl trilogy by C. D. Bell, was just a good as her first, if not better. There is romance, adventure, secrets revealed, tragedy, and perseverance.
Nessa Kurland is running with the pack along with her boyfriend, Luc, who is also a wolf.
Learning to control her transformations more easily and what it mean to be part of nature. What it means to just run free.
Things seem to fall apart as Nessa’s Vet-tech mother is arrested by the FBI on serious charges. Nessa will find out her mother is not who she though she was. That her wealthy father was into weird science and that he had genetically created a daughter from materials from her sister and other animals.
With so much going on you will not want to put this book down until it is finished.

An update of the werewolf society and science gone wrong. Clearly geared for the YA audience. There is a young couple who feature throughout when the young female protagonist is not trying to fix her family's problems.

10/10 would recommend to the teens that come into my public library. Excellent and well written young adult title.
