NOOOoO!<br /><br />OK, so I was kind of determined to ignore this book, but you've brought me to my senses! It sounds amazing! Splendid! M A G I C A L! I can't wait to meet Wendy or Loki or Finn! I'm kind of in love with it already! Wonderful review as always, my dear! ♥Sarah (saz101)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08936602748682093150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841889026658306428.post-56567624801703771282012-03-20T22:33:32.547-04:002012-03-20T22:33:32.547-04:00Oh wow, I definitely need to get a copy of Switche...Oh wow, I definitely need to get a copy of Switched ASAP! The series sounds beautiful and I love the idea of TROLLS as a mythical creature. I think my experience with trolls in fiction is limited to that one in Harry's first year (wingardium leviosa! <3) and... was it trolls that were in Wings by Aprilynne Pike? ANYWAYS. Yes. Trolls sound fabulous and like an excellent change of pace.<br /><br />The characters sound lovely too! I love seeing character growth, so even though Wendy was kind of annoying in the beginning, it's nice to see that she redeems herself. AND LOKI! First of all, what a cool name. Second of all, WHEN CAN I MEET HIM? <3 (When I get a copy of Torn, I guess LOL.)<br /><br />I am super intrigued about this series now so thank you for that! :) I can't wait to get started!<br /><br />SoniaSoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14180755111437637132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841889026658306428.post-11849003933211575902012-03-20T06:37:05.224-04:002012-03-20T06:37:05.224-04:00Aww now I feel bad for not having even started Swi...Aww now I feel bad for not having even started Switched!

And since it's been published here, even with more reason! You don't know how happy I am that they conserved the original covers. They are just so pretty!<br /><br />And I agree with you. In some books the recap is too much for me, and in some others there is no recap whatsoever, but I'm glad to hear this one has just the right amount of it :)<br /><br />And wow, you picked my curiosity again with the trolls. I want to read a book like that! I hope you have an amazing start of the week.

I started this the other day and was hooked (particularly happy to hear there's lots more Loki, I'm loving him already!) but stupidly I set it down in the middle of a book slump. WHY?! I don't know. I honestly do. not. know. I have to pick it back up soon, because I enjoyed the first, but you're telling me it's even BETTER and your gushiness is making ME gushy about it already. You have a talent, my dear.

Sometimes I appreciate them, but if a long time has passed from when I read the previous installment, I just pick it up and refresh my memory. <br />Amazing review, my dear. :)Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841889026658306428.post-1092192848012410862012-03-19T09:23:10.027-04:002012-03-19T09:23:10.027-04:00Yay for a sequel being better than the first book ...Yay for a sequel being better than the first book and not suffering from second book syndrome!
