review 1: Amusing story of someone who discovers that the reason he's been blacking out and then finding strange objects in his stool ... is a supernatural one! Ooooo! But, what can he do? Luckily, there's a self-help group for everything in this day and age. In his case, it's Shapeshifters Anonymous - but he'd better bring donuts.Also, there is a natural enemy of all shapeshifters, and you might be pretty darned surprised to find out who it is.Cute.
review 2: This book was a little ... strange to me. I had a hard time reading through it. Starting off with Weston carrying his "stool sample" to the dr. He's finding strange things in it, like buttons, a zipper and coins? The Doctor asks him if he had any idea how it got in his system? He says he has no idea. He sleepwalks
... more- going to sleep fully dressed, waking up naked in a different place. But only towards the end of the month... when the moon is full. When he wakes up the next morning, only to find a golden hoop earring and the very dog tag his neighbor was wearing, he panicked. Google is a pretty handy tool. I do a lot of searches on Google, but I've never found a Support group for Therianthropes - otherwise known as Shapesifters. When Weston calls and talks to a Weresquirrel, he gets the password to the SA (Shapeshifters Anonymous) group and a location and time. on his way, he runs into a strange Santa Clause on the street. Not that Santa Clause is strange, because they're everywhere at that time of the year, but this one was talking about Naughty boys and being beheaded and burned on sacred ground. Obviously out of his mind.. right? Lol - Well Getting to the meeting, Weston meets a few of the local shapeshifters, Andy, the WereBoar, Scott, the WereCoral (yes he turns into a coral reef), then the older woman Phyllis, who is a furry. She doesn't really turn into an animal, she just dresses up as on... like a mascot. But they feel sorry for her, so they let her come to the meetings anyways. Hum... Ok so getting started, Irena *sigh, love at first sight* who is a Werecougar starts catching up Weston with who is whom and whatever. When Scott starts talking about the Santa's, Weston can't believe his ears! *GASP* Did Weston lead the evil Santa to their meeting? Are the Shapesfter's in danger??? ok so it wasn't all THAT bad - it has it's moments :) less
