~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This book was released in three
parts and each does need to be read in order.
I like the idea of this story. Ms. Kidd provides a unique shifter type
(multi-transforming). Like Sam on True
Blood can be any kind of dog; here, the shifters can be anything. Ms. Kidd also provides a clear statement on
the human pathos in that we tend to ignore what does not directly affect
us. How else could you explain so many
shifters living close by and nobody believes they exist?
Though I liked the plot and I have
fallen in love with Lucas, I think Elle is an odd person with too little
self-esteem. I understand that first
meeting someone can be electrifying and lead to carnality, but to follow a man
without a word and indulge, is beyond lust and reeks of desperation. I believe I would have established more
sympathy for Elle had her history been more developed.
Having read the “blurbs” for the
other two installments in this book, I would like to read them and find out
just what happens.
