Goodreads Summary
Now that Wendy knows that she is a changeling, she is beginning to discover more facts about her past. Wendy must leave her family to live in Trylle. There she discovers that her new home is on the verge of a war...in order to potentially avert such an event she must marry someone with influence...and ignore several growing attractions. Wendy has one love interest who is not suitable to her new status and she has another waiting for her. Readers will have different reactions to this love triangle, some will not like the tension while others will enjoy how Hocking handles the three.
Wendy's character is developed further. She is forced to make decisions in her new life that can't have been easy to comprehend. Overall, Wendy tries to think of her people and make decisions based upon their best interests. The other characters are very different from each other and easy to pick apart even though there are many to remember. The author does a great job of infusing each character with personality and depth.
The plot itself moved quickly. The reader will fly through this book. Torn is recommended to young adult/teen readers.
