So, as the synopsis tells us, we have a bit of a Freaky Friday situation going on except it's between a cat and a human. Now the cat doesn't know acceptable human behavior, after all, she's been living with a mean witch for the past several hundred years and the human doesn't know acceptable cat behavior. What ensues is a learning experience for both of them. Cathy, the human is your typical shy girl who doesn't know that she's actually pretty. There is a mean girl, of course, Tiffany who bu

This book was cute. It took me a little while to get into the book, but once I did, I enjoyed the story. The story starts out with a bang, or a body switch to be more accurate. It was a little jumpy for me at the start, but once you really get into the story it gets better and better! BeSwitched is a a fun read, and the next book looks good too.
Cathy and Surla are pretty funny. I was shocked at how ok Cathy seemed to be with being turned into a cat. I know I wouldn't be ok with that More...

BeSwitched is a so very fun, meaningful and joyful reading!
When Surla, a witch's black cat, runs away and switches body with Cathy, a 16-years-old girl, we can wait for everything to happen. Surla crosses Cathy's path and the magic is done, changing the life of both characters. We discover that Surla has run away from her witch because of severe punishments, mistreating and absence of love and affection; Cathy was, on her side, picked on by her supposed friends at school, a bunch of More...

BeSwitched was a quick, sweet, and fun Middle-Grade read that I quite enjoyed.
The story starts out with a bit of a bang. Instead of the usual long and dreary introductions that we get, the author launches straight into Surla's escape from Idis' home and her BeSwitching with Cathy. I felt a little detached to the story at the start since it moved a tiny bit too fast for my linking, but it was otherwise a very interesting beginning and would keep most readers hooked.

Táto kniha je kratučká, takže aj recenzia bude taká v skratke.
Prvé čo si musíte uvedomiť než začnete túto knihu čítať je fakt, že je určená mladšiemu publiku. Tak okolo 13 rokov. A je skôr pre dievčatá. Keď sa na to pripravíte a nebudete očakávať nič prevratné, môžete si túto knižku užiť.
Čo očakávať? Predvídateľnosť. Tú rozhodne. Samozrejme, že starším čitateľom bude dopredu jasné, ako to nakoniec dopadne. Prečo sa to vyplatí čítať? Lebo je to roztomilé a rozkošné a veľmi vtipne napísa More...

loved it, it was such a cute book. Cathy is like any teenage girl that doesn't feel like she fits in and is afraid to speak up for herself. She is more comfortable just fading into the background. Then she crosses paths with Surla, who is the complete opposite and takes the switch to Cathy's advantage. Surla, makes her not only stand out and but stand up against the three snooty girls that pick on her everyday. How can any teen not relate to that, seriously it's something all of us have experie

This was a very well written book. I absolutely loved the idea of the story and everything about it. The characters were very well written and the story pulled me in right away, it was hard for me to put it down anytime that I had to.
I automatically fell for Todd, he's brooding and handsome, smart and a jock. He's the best of both worlds.He just sounds like the kind of guy that I would have fell for in High School myself, and probably even now.

I received a review copy of BeSwitched and its sequel, BeSwitched Witch from the author before the BeSwitched blog tour but I haven't managed to read it up until now. Being a black cat owner myself, I was quite excited about this book and it turned out to be a cute read.
If I had to make comparisons, I would say that BeSwitched was a bit like Freaky Friday and Sabrina the Teenage Witch rolled into one. To be honest, it took me quite a while to get into the story and I wasn't sure I wa More...
