Another light-hearted, low-angst shifter romance series that was perfect bedtime reading and genuinely made me laugh in places. Looking forward to reading the last two in the series now.

I feel like there's an entire sociological thesis that could be written about the wild popularity of these kinds of safe warm hugs of shifter romance stories over the past five years. If you'd asked me of 2019 if she'd even consider reading these kinds of stories, I'd have sworn they'd never in a million years appeal to me - but here I am now, chain-reading them because they're exactly the brain candy I need at this point in my life.

Note to self: don't be a book snob and let people like what they like in future - you never know when you're suddenly going to start loving it too.

Very interesting concept and if I'm being honest I wish these were less romance focused and more focused on what is happening to the town and who is nosing around about it. Definitely wish I had more info about that. The couples are cute but the stories are short so I didn't develop much attachment to any of them. All in all these were decent reads. I am not sure if I will continue on with the series. Possibly when I get my TBR under control.

Suddenly animals

Three stories in which people in one town turn into animals, but not the same animals. A dog. A cat. A bear. A hare. A mountain lion.
Each story has a couple finding love - attraction.
There are two women who seem unaffected for no known reason.
An interesting puzzle.
Content includes sex.

pure joy

Finally the Suddenly Shifters stories together! If you haven’t read them before, and you enjoy a mystery of people suddenly becoming shifters and the hilarity that ensues (with some spicy moments) then you should get this book!

Loved it!

I really enjoyed this collection of short stories. Each one was unique but connected. There were even some shorts worthy moments.

Quick read

Totally implausible but a cute, fun read. Absolutely no chance of reality so it's a good escape if you're looking for that kinda down time.

Great collection

Three wonderful books in one collection. All of them are page turners. I enjoy the writing of this author very much. She keeps the story interesting on each page. These books are about a town where people can suddenly change into an animal, for some unknown reason.
I also listened to the audiobook recording of this book and highly recommend it. The narrators are very talented and can vocalize the characters well. There are two different narrators, one male and one female. They switch off taking the different chapters. The recording is unabridged.
