Sometimes you'll start a book series you missed when you were a kid thinking that the books about morphing kids would just be them going on cutesy Scooby Doo adventures, and then it's 22 books later and a teenage girl is coming to terms with the fact that war has ruined her. She can no longer be a child; she trapped a boy in the body on a rat, she is capable of extreme violence, and not only does she know it but her friends know it too. Um. She still has a calculus test tomorrow, btw.
