What a difference a book makes!!

Torn is such a better book than Switched, holy guacamole?! The only things I didn't like we're Finn (his entire character - grr), and the ending was a bit anticlimactic in my opinion.

Wendy was so much more tolerable in this book. She was a lot more selfless and friendly, and she is actually shaping up to be a good queen. But I swear if she ends up with Finn.....sh*t will hit the fan!! Seriously, Loki is actual bae right now. He is AMAZING! I don't have a guy crush. Not at all. Honest......

Other than the little love triangle, I liked the character development for some of the side characters. We got to see a more compassionate side to Elora, it was nice to have Matt around and to see him changing things with the Trylle folk, and I just love Rhys in general (even though he wasn't as present this time). But I must say, Tove is adorable. Honestly I spent a lot of time being unsure if he was trustworthy, even though I still liked him the entire time. And then when we found out more about him at the end, I loved him even more. Then the little chapter from his POV in the bonus content - he is the CUTEST!

I've been really craving some fantasy and even though this isn't strictly a fantasy book since its set in a little troll community in the modern US, it reads a lot more like a fantasy than Switched with the monarchs and a bit of royal politics.

This series has surprised me because I didn't think I would feel this strongly about the characters given my initial opinion from the first book. My friend tells me the final book is her favourite so I'm actually really excited to start it!
