Description

Amanda Hocking is an indie publishing sensation whose self-published novels have sold millions of copies all over the world, and Switched is the book that started the phenomenon.  Prepare to be enchanted…
When Wendy Everly was six years old, her mother was convinced she was a monster and tried to kill her. Eleven years later, Wendy discovers her mother might have been right.  She’s not the person she’s always believed herself to be, and her whole life begins to unravel—all because of Finn Holmes.
Finn is a mysterious guy who always seems to be watching her.  Every encounter leaves her deeply shaken…though it has more to do with her fierce attraction to him than she’d ever admit.  But it isn’t long before he reveals the truth:  Wendy is a changeling who was switched at birth—and he’s come to take her home.   
Now Wendy’s about to journey to a magical world she never knew existed, one that’s both beautiful and frightening.  And where she must leave her old life behind to discover who she’s meant to become…
As a special gift to readers, this book contains a new, never-before-published bonus story, “The Vittra Attacks,” set in the magical world of the Trylle.

CHANGED MY LIFE

I loved this book. Not only have I read it and the others 7 times, but it was really impacted with love, action, and fantasy. A really good mix and taste. I really liked how Hocking made Finn more like a "badboy" type, if you know what I mean. Sexy and everything. It was like watching a movie in my head every time I read these books. If only the movie was like how I pictured it. I saw the preview for the movie of it and it looked NOTHING like I saw it in my mind.

What a great fictional world!

From the start it was exciting and interesting, I was able to really hook onto it about 15 pages into the book! Amanda Hocking is an extremely creative and astonishing author. Every experience in this series that Wendy has, as a reader you feel it yourself. If you like getting lost in a book that takes you to another world, this is the book and series for you! 10/10 would recommend! Also check out her other series similar to this one called the Kanin Chronicles... I can't wait to finish it!

Very YA

This theme is recurrent in YA novels. I was disappointed in the occasional misuse of pronouns-poor editing? The story zips along, maybe too quickly. More build up should have happened between Wendy (MC) and the tracker before she disappears with him. And, considering her fiery temper, Wendy is way too easily cowed by her Queen mom! She doesn't ask enough questions or demand answers or accountability from anyone in her new kingdom. The mom has a lot of explaining to do, it would seem, before Wendy would agree to be put through the gauntlet. I'd give it 2 1/2 stars if I could. I may read the next book, or not.

Actually not bad

I'm not a huge YA fan, but this was actually pretty decent. The love story was pretty good, but honestly it was pretty frustrating. I just wanted to shake Wendy by the shoulders the whole time, but I suppose that just means she was a very well written teenager. I would recommend it, but I'm not going to be clamoring for the sequel. I'd mostly only read it to see what happens with Rhys, because he's my favorite character if the book.

Amazing

I read all three books inane day and literally cried at the end of the series. Why? Because it was over.
Favorite series I have ever read. Seriously.
Unlike The Hunger Games where the books progressively get worse, the stay the same throughout. Amazing.

Great

I really enjoyed this book and I couldn't wait to read the next book until I found out that it turns into a love triangle story which I'm not really into. However I will still read the next book and finish reading the series with an open mind because I do like the way she writes.

Overall, it was pretty good!

At the beginning of the book, I definitely thought that it was the most favorable part in the book. The story leaves you in suspense each time. The last sentence in the book keeps you hungry for more!

Re release of the trilogy?

The other two books of the trilogy were already released when I read them last year. The novels were in severe need of editing and had different covers, and at the time were only $2.99 each. They were entertaining books nonetheless though and I'd recommend them to fantasy/romance readers.
