Transformed by Jaap Boekestein, Nancy Canu, Michael M. Jones, Liz McAdams, Nidhi Singh, Gretchen Bassier, Clint Collins, Meg Archer, Trece Angulo, Charlie Watson
3.0
Transformed was a really interesting read. From selkies to cobras, this anthology had every type of shifter you could imagine. Transformed is categorized on Netgalley as Erotica, and for the latter half, I understand why, but the first half is pretty tame. Some of the stories are sweet stories of finding yourself or a dormant part of yourself and embracing that.
I liked the diversity of voices and characters represented in this anthology. There were a plethora of shifters and their stories were so unique it made the reading of each one an experience. I especially enjoyed the story entitled "Thwarting the Spirits" about a mongoose and a cobra and when it ended, I wished there was more. Jones' writing was beautiful and magical and left me wanting more. The same can be said for Liz McAdams' "For the Love of the Hunt" and her story of a shifter who'd forgotten a primal part of herself.
Overall, this anthology was fun, sexy, and thrilling. I enjoyed the compilation for what it was!
