Interesting version of the changeling concept. With this, Wendy is swapped for the child her mother should have had, only she doesn't know this and she doesn't feel that she fits into her community, her school her life. She can make people do things for her and it occasionally worries her but it c...

If you haven't read this book, I definitely encourage you to. Don't let the normalcy of the beginning fool you--the author brings much more complex plot and characterization about halfway through. For those of you who have read it: I didn't think I was going to like this book as much as I did. The b...

4 stars for the original idea, and because I like the writing style and setting and worldbuilding. The characters are what dragged this down. I didn't like any of them, really, except Elora and Rhys, and maybe Willa. Although I grow to appreciate Wendy a lot more in the second and third books. Thes...

Switched was an interesting read because I was constantly flip-flopping over how I felt about it. While it was a quick and easy read that I found hard to put down, it was also filled with shallow characters, lacklustre villains and an abundance of plot holes. So while I enjoyed it for it’s mindless ...

I didn't hate this book, but I didn't love it either. It kept me occupied on the train...I just don't feel motivated to read the rest of the series. I feel like there should have been more to the storyline. I'm really glad I got this book for free on amazon kindle otherwise I would have been upse...

I'm going to be honest and straight forward. Before purchasing this book, I knew absolutely NOTHING about it, and had never heard of the author or the book before. I was in my local bookstore, browsing, and I happened to see this on the YA fiction shelf. The cover and title caught my eye, leading me...

This was really fun, but I wish Wendy would stick up for herself more, and ditch Finn right away. At the same time, she reminds me of myself: “Finn: I look at you because I can't look away Wendy.Wendy: That's kinda creepy.Finn: I will work on being less creepy then.” I call people out on their creep...

Due to copy and paste, formatting has been lost.From the very first page of this book, I knew that it was going to be different than any other book that I've read. In one sense I was right. The idea behind this book is really fantastic, and really imaginative, but it wasn't executed near as well as ...

AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL. That's the only word that comes to my mind when I remember this book. I read it ONLY because it had a gorgeous cover. What a stupid ...

I liked Switched over all. The plot was unique and I enjoyed learning what I could about the trolls and their way of life. The characters were enjoyable and you can connect with Wendy on some level. I was a little disappointed that it seemed to focus more on the politics and aristocracy than what be...
