And I Thought I Was Human . . .

by Amara Grace

To be honest, I didn't think that I'd have my life-changing experience begin at the dentist's. No sane person would think that. So often, books and movies start out when the main character is at a nightclub or a party or on the streets of New York. But not me. I was thrown into a world of chaos and rivalry when I had my cheek numb and saliva dripping down my chin-not exactly a Lara Croft level of sexy heroine. This was how it began... After about five minute of drilling, he seemed to hit a sore spot or a nerve, because I yelped in pain, my eyes snapping open. The second I made eye contact with the dentist, something strange happened. His pupils narrowed into slits, and his irises went from brown to vibrant yellow-green. Unknown to me, my eyes flashed pinky-purple in return. The dentist stopped drilling and pulled back. He whipped his head up to look at the hygienist. "You didn't tell me!" "It wasn't in the file!" she screeched and then twisted her head to get a better look at me as I attempted to squirm into a better position. Then she flicked her tongue out at me-her forked tongue. "I guess we're just lucky," she cooed licking her lips. "What the hell?" I asked, my tone shocked and confused but the words coming out of my mouth as "Wha ta hau?" This chick was looking at me like dinner, not to mention the freaky body change she had going on. My name is Lucia Shay. Welcome to my new life.

I enjoyed reading this book very much. I thought this book was extremely well written for a first time author. I am very interesting in reading the next book in the series. I know that it will be as good as the first.

Very well written book. For such a young author, this book truly entertains and inspires me to write a book of my own some day.
