Her books are not my typical reading fare - I tend more toward the adult mysteries and suspense type of thing - however ever since I picked up Hocking's My Blood Approves series, I've been strangely addicted to her work. The Trylle series is no exception. Now, I may not fall in the typical readership for Hocking's books, but because I work as a Probation Officer for teenagers, I tend to read a lot of YA fiction to keep "in touch" with what my kids enjoy. Hocking's three-part Trylle series, of which Switched is number one, is about a girl who has a miserable existance.

Her childhood is filled with little oddities that don't make much sense, and her mother, who refers to her as a "monster" goes so far as to try to stab her to death at her own birthday party.

Switched is so much a coming of age tale - with a twist - as Wendy soon discovers that she has another life waiting for her discovery and that she is so much more than an angst filled teenager stuck in high school. I won't give away any more, as part of the joy of reading this book is discovering - right along with Wendy - just what in the heck is wrong with her and why she has all these odd little habits, abilities and thoughts. This is not a literary masterpiece for your college Women's Literature class. It was not intended to be so. It is not filled with symbolism and fodder for critical discussion.

It IS, however, fun, light reading that will keep your attention. It is a sweet story. Hocking has captured a believable and realistic teenage heroine. She's captured appropriate action, adventure, and even romantic tension.

Here’s what you need to know about the cast of Netflix’s Switched

For those reviewers who say the teenage angst is overblown I work with teenagers for a living and the internal and external dialogue is actually quite realistic for the age group. Perphaps not ALL teens think this way, but the ones I work with quite often do. Many teens - especially girls with abusive backgrounds and lack of a stable parent figure like Wendy - DO think and act this way, althought many of them would be hard pressed to publically admit it.

I've given Switched four stars, not because it isn't excellent, but because I save my five star reviews for books that are out of this world wonderful or books that really speak to me emotionally. This one is excellent, but it is not the definition of perfect.

There are a few typos, but they are easily overlooked. Excellent and believable plot. An overall wonderfully creative and engaging book. Nice job, Amanda - I'm off to purchase 2 in the series and I am looking forward to discovering more. Caroline Greyling Author of Five: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Wendy Everly has never belonged. Her school mates seem repulsed by her, the teachers pick on her and even her own mother tried to kill her at the age of six.

Who is in the cast?

She soon discovers that there is more to his attention than meets the eye. Finn has been sent to find Wendy and bring her home, into a whole new world she never knew she was a part of. This is my kind of story. The kind of story you dream about. It is simple and neat, showcasing a well-planned and executed story without unnecessarily pretty prose. The plot, while predictable at times, is engaging and leaves you with a rather pleasant aftertaste that begs for more. Wendy Everly never fit in anywhere, she was always disgruntled and after her own mother tried to kill her a bit of loner.

Although she has her brother and Aunt, moving to a new city she meets Finn Holmes who watches her like a hawk. Finn knows everything about Wendy and the time has come for her to come to her true home where she will belong. However after initially disagreeing to leave, she goes and finds that she still is not feeling at home.

The truth behind who she is and what her path may not be what Wendy wants or needs. This was interesting but I found I had a hard time softening to Wendy. Once you get who she is I had a ton of questions that I would have liked answered. Maybe they will reveal themselves in the other two books. One person found this helpful. It's too bad that Amanda Hocking or her publisher did not take the time to read the ebook version of this story before they made it available for purchase.

Even though the premise of the story is very intriguing I spent some time trying to decipher words that were mispelled and sentences that had words placed in an incorrect order. The result was that I would begin to lose myself in the book and then be jerked out of it as I tried to decode what she was attempting to say. The poor editing is insulting. In a time when there is so much technology available to correct mispellings perhaps this author has forgotten one of the basic rules of editing, when you think your material is finished - read it out loud.

This process would have immediately shown Ms. Hocking where the editing problems occurred. I have read the reviews of other readers about the 2nd and 3rd parts of this trilogy and I am truly hesitant to spend my money on Ms. Hocking's books as they all seem to have these same deficits. I certainly will not begin any other series by this author.

I would be very interested if the material was corrected. In the meantime, I will look for other books that are more polished - there are certainly tons of them out there. See all reviews.
