    A good paranornmal fantasy for young adults (and not so young adults) with a touch of mystery thrown in. Not too gory or violent, which I liked. I really liked the protagonist Caleb as well, I think the author nailed a teenager going through "changes" really well. I enjoyed reading it.

    Shifted Perspective is a clean and entertaining tale that will take the reader to a place with shape shifters that are not of the normal kind and many ways to get in trouble. It is a good story, well thought-out, a must for readers of any age. This read is a paranormal story full of werewolves, witches and dogs.
    Caleb is a normal young adult who has just started his senior year in high school. That is until he starts to wake up naked in his house and can’t remember how he got there or why.
    For Christmas, his mother’s sister invites him and his father to spend it with them in California. The families are somewhat close, especially after his mother up and left one day without a note. The timing is great since Caleb was accepted at the University he wants and that means he needs a lot of money.
    His uncle and aunt are a bit eccentric, but they have all the money they want, while Caleb’s father owns a modest little store that survives due to tourism in the summer. His need for money means he will put up with all the weirdness his uncle’s family can ditch out. He just doesn’t know if he will be alive to enjoy the University afterwards.
    Shifted Perspective takes a new approach to shape shifting stories that works wonderfully in this tale. I enjoyed the story plot and look forward to the next on the series. It does need some editing to flush out some redundant phrases and move the story faster. It is a great read for pre-teens to adults.

    Shifted Perspective by J. Bridger was a very entertaining debut novel. I was asked by this author for an honest review and when I read the book description I thought it was interesting.

    Caleb is a young man who wakes up one morning to discover that he is in dog form. It appears he is from a shifter family and apparently can shift into a dog. Caleb’s mother left him and his father six years ago and never bothers to tell them that she is from a canine shifter family. Because Caleb never showed any signs that he inherited the gene, his aunt and uncle never prepared him. Luckily for Caleb his father is a fabulous man who will do anything for his son and support him in every way he can.

    Caleb and his father go to Los Angeles to visit Caleb’s shifter family, where he can learn to control his shifting and learn more about the shifter society. They both face the pack alpha, which happens to be a big bad wolf and if they don’t follow the shifter rules, there will be consequences.

    J. Bridger has written a great debut novel, with lots of humor, great characters and a little mystery crime to solve. I found myself turning page after page so I could read what Caleb was doing next. I loved Caleb’s interaction with his own dog, it appears he can communicate with him after his first shift and I have to say there were funny moments. I’m curious to see how this story will continue in the second book of this series.
