Publisher's summary

Switched: the first book in the Trylle Trilogy.

When Wendy Everly was six-years-old, her mother was convinced she was a monster and tried to kill her. It isn't until 11 years later that Wendy discovers her mother might have been right.

Critic reviews

"Vampire and werewolf lovers beware; this trilogy opener offers readers a new take on an unexpected breed of mystical beings. Readers who can suspend preconceived notions and open themselves up to this new interpretation are in for a midwinter version of a good beach read." ( Kirkus Reviews)

"Wendy is a flawed antihero, which helps differentiate her from the throng of paranormal-romance heroines, and the potential for development, both dramatic and romantic, should make readers anxious for the next installment of the Trylle trilogy." ( Booklist)

awesome book

I really love this book at the storyline was original not a copycat can't wait to read the next two

Loved It!

I've never read one of Amanda Hocking's novels before, and I must say that I really enjoyed this one. Although there are some common romantic themes which tend to dominate all gothic novels these days, this one at least deals with a fresh variety of beings from a unique society that has not been done to death in the mould of vampires and werewolves. Theresa Plummer does a competent job with the narrative and it kept me interested and entertained.

Love it!!!

This is my favorite book ever!!! I'm 13 and I love it, it's my second time listening to it!!!

It was one of the best Troll stories I heard

What did you love best about Switched?

It was intense it talked about switching babies at birth and how it affected the Trill community.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Wendy was my favorite because she wanted to change how the Trill lived and worked together.

What about Therese Plummer’s performance did you like?

She was a good reader with voice control on all the characters

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Wendy saw her brother for the first time and found out he was a Main Squeek in the home of her Mother

I listened to this a while back yrs ago

I seen that the author just came out with a new series that takes off of this series but I could not remember what exactly happened through the series here books 1-3 so now it's coming back to me and I absolutely loved and will always adore the narrator Therese Plummer and it's a fantastic series definitely recommend listening to 100% .

Switched Review

Any additional comments?

A book about trolls?! This was a neat book, trolls were never something I've read about before. There weren't many plot twists in this story that you couldn't see coming but the writing and narration was so good it really didn't matter.I think that this trilogy is just going to keep getting better, I cant wait to read the next one.

pretty okay

kept my attention but wasn't the best I ever read I will be finishing the series and am looking forward to it

outstanding and a new twist on an old story line

I could not stop listening. I was shocked at all the twists and turns and mesmerized by the characters.
