Switched by Amanda Hocking

When Wendy Everly was six years old her mother was convinced she was a monster and tried to kill her, and eleven years later Wendy learns that her mother was right and that she is actually a changeling troll, who, at the age of seventeen, must be returned to her rightful home.

I don't know what it is but I absolutely love Amanda Hocking's writing. Her books just have a way of entertaining me. This book was very unique in the whole troll thing. While the Trylle are not actual trolls in the sense of what we consider trolls, they are still technically trolls and that was great for me.

I really enjoyed Wendy as a character. She was definitely different than other Trylle and I think a lot of that had to do with her upbringing in a more modest household with Matt and Maggie. Finn was also great and he clearly will do anything to keep Wendy safe even if that means leaving her.

Wendy's mom (both moms really) are the exact opposite of what you would want in a world you don't fit into. Willi and Tove sound like they are going to be great friends to Wendy going forward in this trilogy.

This was a great introduction into the land of trolls and I can't want to see how the events of Switched unfold in Torn.

This was a decent story. It started off strong with a twisted situation when the main character is a child. Characters were introduced well. I did get slightly annoyed when Wendy becomes a bit snively about her whole situation. However, the story kept me interested enough to want to find out what happens. The ending was a bit abrupt. Probably to get you hooked enough to grab the next book. Which I did, since the series is pretty fair priced overall.
Also, every time I see the word Princess, I'm reminded of the “Excuse me Princess” clip from the Zelda cartoon.
