Even in the reread, Emily’s unwillingness to claim her status as a lycanthrope still kind of confuses me. But, then again, in doing a whole lot of study in counselling and minorities, I suppose lycanthropy is a minority status, and yeah… I begin to get it. Not everyone wants to have to deal with the prejudice and systematic discrimination that is obviously rife in this world. I find it interesting that originally, and even whilst rereading Owl Be Yours, I was constantly wondering about this. But, it wasn’t until I really started to take on board my diversity understanding to really understand why she may not choose to do this.
There was a level of delightfulness in Emily’s desire for violence throughout this story. It had me laughing and smiling throughout. I particularly loved how, as violent as Emily got, Daniel was very willing to just… go along with it. I particularly love how she ties her violent tendencies of revenge in with her happily ever after chances. It had me laughing, smiling, and shaking my head in humour.
As much as I really enjoyed this story as a reread, the thing that I really want to know more about the mating rituals of Ural Owls. I don’t even know if this is a real species (but I’m presuming that it is), but I want to know more about it anyway. I mean, the idea of giving of food and performing acts to prove your worth is fun. I particularly like how stressed out Daniel is when he doesn’t get to perform his acts of service to his standards.
Owl Be Yours is a great, simple and easy read. I really enjoyed it the first time, and I thoroughly enjoyed it just as much on the second read through. There’s a reason why I am seriously enjoying this reread of the series. And Owl Be Yours is a perfect example of this – a shorter read, a fun one. And one that I will definitely pick up again in the future.
