Such a fun read. A bit weird science meets freaky Friday with some unrequited love thrown in. The author did a great job building reader empathy for both leads in their efforts of self preservation when it came to falling for each other and balancing dreams with prior experiences of love.

Thank you WW L Crown for the ARC in exchange for a review. I love a body swap moment, but I don't think it necessarily works with a heterosexual couple. Regardless, the writing was crisp and clean, and the book was well-researched. I would read something else of hers.

Felt like a breath of new air among other books - changed my perspective on physics

Like seriously, I didn't know physics could be explained in such an enthralling way, If I end up taking any endeavours with physics, the credit would go to this book lol - I will try to learn more about this domain

This was a really refreshing read among all the romance books that exists, instead of the usual predictable tropes - I really enjoyed it's newness

Don't get me wrong, I really love other tropes, I binge on them too

But this one really threw me off hook in the best way possible

I didn't have much expectations going on, but they were sooo cute omg

I am never a fan of books that start with one-night flings, but this one portrayed the plot so beautifully

Henry was absolutely adorable and so was she when they were taking care of each other - the way the tropes were remixed is a chef's kiss

I LOVE loved the footnotes, it felt like author was my bsf and she was telling me the story

The little doodles explaining stuff >>>>>

I really enjoyed this book! I love the characters and I felt like the writing is really wonderful. The plot is very interesting and well thought out!

great book! I wasn't sure if the book is for me because I´ve never read something like it but it was perfect! it felt like reading an 90s romcom and I loved it! I really liked the characters and the way the story went! I giggled a few times and cried a little at the end! I would really recommend it and I will definitely read the other books in this series because they're the perfect rom-com with a twist!

While the plot and premise were fun the writing itself was just a bit too quirky for me. The FMC would break the fourth wall and talk to us as the reader, and it just wasn't my style. As well it had to con of being way too insta-lovey, I never felt that our characters truly KNEW and LOVED each other. A body-swapping novel is the perfect novel for some dual POV action but we just stay in our FMC's point of view which I feel like halved a lot of the fun and plot we could have had. Them switching bodies but being super attracted to themselves was also strange to me. However, it was a quick read and there was some good humor involving the body switch.

Overall I really liked this book! If you liked Freaky Friday this will definitely be up your alley. It took me a second to get into but that's completely based on personal preference! Thank you NetGalley and W.W. Crown for allowing me to read this in return for a completely honest review!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed Duckie as the main character because she had such drive and passion for her work. I am loving this trend of smart female main characters, it is so amazing to see. This book made me giggle a lot and I really enjoyed the revelation Duckie had in this book. I am not a super big fan of the Freaky Friday-like body switch, but it was well done in this book. Henry and Duckie made for an adorable couple.

Honestly, this book never pulled me in. Maybe I didn't jive with the author's writing style. I can understand why people want more romance forward books, but I would have liked a little more plot from the jump. I also would have appreciated less physics focus. All in all, I think I was the wrong audience for this book. Thank you to W.W. Crown an Imprint of Swift & Lewis Publishing LLC and NetGalley for this ARC!

The Freaky Friday of love! I really enjoyed the story and the narration was incredible.
This is Sarah's second book, but it can be read as a standalone. I'm definitely going to read the first and third books, this book is an opposites attract that has been fascinating to read and the way they discover each other has been different, but I liked it a lot.

I loved this book so much! It was a wonderful read that I could not put down. Thank you so much for letting me read this early!

Switched turned out to be much, much better than I had expected. When I read the first book in this series last year, I wasn't sure I wanted to continue reading this series. But Book 2 was revealed to be about my favorite side character from Ghosted and, I had to give it a shot.

And this time, I wasn't disappointed. Sarah Ready's concepts were always great but it was the execution that had bummed me last time. However, I was pleasantly surprised by Switched. The concept, characters, and storyline were well-fleshed out. I was hooked right from the first page and couldn't keep the book down. It did take a little while to get to the main point of the book i.e. the body switch, but I could easily look past it. The narration was quite unique with the tables, graphs, and diagrams. I really enjoyed that bit.

My only problem with this one was that at times it read like a science textbook/science Wikipedia page. Although I appreciate the amount of research the author has put into the topics of particle physics and all the other sciencey stuff, I think the book could have done well without the long paragraphs explaining the scientific concepts. Other than that, I didn't find any issues with it and thoroughly enjoyed reading.

Thank you, W.W. Crown and NetGalley for providing an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Switched is a fun romantic comedy that will have you giggling as opposites attract in the most unlikely way!

The book is set in Geneva, Switzerland and focuses on two very different people who work as scientists. Serena is free spirited, disorganised and happily single. Henry is neat, plays things by the book, and very British. So when these two meet and instantly fall in love the one embraces it and the other runs away.

But it just so happens that Henry is Serena's new boss, and how long can they continue to pretend that nothing happened that one special night? Not for long is the answer, because an electric storm at the particle collider where the work has caused them to switch bodies and they are not forced to get to know each other as they work together to find a solution to their very strange problem.

I thought this was a unique way for two people to discover one another, with both serious and funny parts, making this the second book I've enjoyed from Sarah Ready.

I genuinely liked this book, I just found that the first 20% of the book was a chore to work myself through. It is a very cozy romance book and I am left speechless (review on GR later with more detail)

Trope Run Down
— body swapping
— super geeky science nerds
— lovers to enemies to lovers again

Did I hate this book — no. Did I love this book — also no. 😂 The story was actually set up to be really good, I loved the idea of their bodies swapping and then discovering how to get back to the way they were. I think what threw me off was maybe the way they seemed to be so comfortable with how they touched their own bodies during intimate moments(?). There was one part where Serena had Henry lay with his head on/in her chest but obviously the bodies are switched so to me that would feel weird? Maybe it's just me though.

I didn't understand most if not all the nerdy talk, and there was quite a lot for how much we didn't actually involve their work life once the body swap happened. However, I did love when they used space and stars to describe feelings of love and admiration – call me a romantic sucker I ate that shit up so bad.

I wish we had elaborated earlier on why Serena was so against a relationship, I felt so confused most of the story. I did enjoy reading how she grew to overcome those feelings though.

Overall not a bad story, but this one took me forever to finish. I just wasn't fully invested and found myself wandering to other books in between.

I really enjoyed the story. I expected to get lost a bit in the science, but I didn’t. The characters were well developed and I like how the author pushes gender norms around attachment and intimacy. Highly recommend!

Serena loves her job and wants to keep it like that. When she meets Henry, something shifts inside her, but she shoves it down so her life stays as it is.
Henry meets Serena and falls madly in love with her. Until she dumps him,
Which makes it very hard when Henry starts his new job... as her boss!
Well, but that's not all that shifts in their lives. Some weird sciency thing happens (who knows what!) and suddenly, they have switched bodies!
To go on with their lives, they spend all the time together. Which makes all those feelings start to resurface.

We stay tuned, trying to understand how they will be able to switch again and continue their lives, as they were. But, will they switch back? Or will they stay switched forever?

An interesting and very funny book. The characters are lovable, the side characters bring an extra spark to the story, and there is no way you won't enjoy reading this!

My favorite part was definitely the graphs and Serena's explanations. They brought the book to a higher level of enjoyment.

4.25*

With thanks to Netgalley, the publishers and the author for giving me the chance to review this book.

Sadly switched was a DNF book for me, it sounded like my type of book, (I'm a big fan of body swapping fiction) but I couldn't get past the 4th chapter of this book.

Sorry

I LOVED this book. and loved is quite an understatement.
I love all things science, all things astronomy, and even more so, all things romance, so as you can guess this book was exactly what I wanted.

the writing style really stood out to me while reading this book. sometimes the author uses run-on sentences to describe setting, which I wasn't the hugest fan of, but I got over it.

the author also breaks the fourth wall, which some others didn't enjoy while reading, but I found it really amusing and fitting for this book. while reading I could almost feel the author's excitement describing all the science behind everything that was going on.

I thought the plot was perfect and well thought out and the atmosphere was just incredible. I truly felt as if I was in this book because of the way the author described everything.

overall, I had an amazing time reading this and if you're a science lover like me, I would suggest you give it a try as well!!💌

thank you so much to netgalley, the publisher, and the author for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! all opinions here are my own.

This started out really fun and cute. The ebook even has interactive footnotes.
Serena and Henry are opposites in almost every way but they both like physics and work together. They end up switched into each other's bodies and spend the rest of the book getting to know more about each other's lives and families both in fun times and more serious ones.

This book wasn't what I expected. It was romantic but I thought Henry deserved better than Serena.
The message for most of the book is that being a wife and mom isn’t good enough and means losing yourself, but does change at the end.
There are many references to sex, crude comments, and some open door scenes.
