Blurb:
Joshua is preparing for his 16th birthday. He's not only going to tell his parents he's gay, but he's going to introduce them to his boyfriend at his party. On the flip side, his family is preparing for his 16th birthday also. They're going to tell him there's a chance he could be a Shifter. (In their family, if he has the curse, they turn into Werecats). BUT, there's also a 1 in a 100% chance he could be a wild card Shifter. Called a Switcher. Then all bets are off. Because Switchers have no idea what they will become. EVER. And, if he does become a Switcher... every night, at 9 PM (Hey, don't ask me, that's the time his family shifts) he will change form. Man, animal, woman, whatever. He will never look the same again. Life will never be the same for Joshua. Or for his relationship, if he is that wild card. Or his family. Be ready to laugh.

Review:
I wasn't sure what to expect when I read the first two, three pages of the story. I mean, I definitely laughed. A lot.

Joshua, the main character, is funny. Joshua's boyfriend, Daniel, is a sweetheart. I truly like both of them. I enjoy the comedy aspect of the story and the relationship between Joshua and Daniel is wonderful. I'm not going to spoil the story for you, but you'll be howling out in amusement throughout the entire story.

However, underneath all the laughter, I detect subtle hints of insecurity and fears that the readers should be able to empathize with. The fear of losing one's family when you're coming out of the closet, the fear of losing the person you love in the face of uncertainties... The author manages to convey the various emotions throughout the story and remain true to the main genre itself, which is comedy.

If you're looking for a fun read, you should get this book. You'll laugh and probably cry a little as the story progresses, but it's an awesome book. Get it today!
