Synopsis

Joshua is preparing for his 16th birthday. He's not only going to tell his parents he's gay, but he's going to introduce them to his boyfriend at his party.

On the flip side, his family is preparing for his 16th birthday also. They're going to tell him there's a chance he could be a Shifter. (In their family, if he has the curse, they turn into Werecats).

BUT, there's also a 1 in a 100% chance he could be a wild card Shifter. Called a Switcher. Then all bets are off. Because Switchers have no idea what they will become. EVER.

And, if he does become a Switcher... every night, at 9 PM (Hey, don't ask me, that's the time his family shifts) he will change form. Man, animal, woman, whatever. He will never look the same again.

Life will never be the same for Joshua. Or for his relationship, if he is that wild card. Or his family.

Be ready to laugh

My YA offering, a gay comedy love story.

Review

Switching Through The Forest With Me is a YA comedy from author Johnny Williams. I've read his work before and it never fails to make me laugh. In this, I would say I laughed even more than ever. It's wildly creative, massively fun, and hilarious.

Joshua is sixteen and ready to tell his family he's gay! But his family has a surprise for him instead. He is likely a shifter. Well, as you can imagine that throws Joshua for a loop and in doing so makes for a crazy adventure.

There's a fabulous twist to this shifter story because Joshua never knows what he will turn into. One night he's a squirrel and another night he's a woman, and another night he's.... well you get it. As a reader I was always curious what would happen at 9PM. What would Joshua be?

Johnny Williams truly masters comedy in any genre. This being YA I feel he's sharing his talent with a wider audience. You can be 13 or 93 and positively love this book. You have to enjoy good old fashion humor and be ready to step into a magical, nutty world.

I very much recommend this book if you're looking for something that will make you feel good.

Klub Kids

Klub Kids by Johnny Williams is truly a funny, fresh, and fierce book. There is so much realism mixed in. It was wonderfully refreshing. Johnny's sense of humor had me laugh-crying and that is my favorite! 

The character Johnny (which when you consider it's a semi-autobiography is also the writer) is very cynical. You don't quite know what will come out of his mouth at any given time and that is why I'd bust out laughing at odd times in this story.

You can't help but relate and love Johnny in this. I can't understand his struggle at finding someone because I found him to be a delight!

It's fascinating in the outlook part. Aside from all the wonderful humor, there are issues and I found the author really made the reader not just be there but to understand it all. Great!

Klub Kids Strike Back

Klub Kids Strike Back is book two, or a follow up really to Klub Kids. I did read this back to back with book one so I can easily say I find the need to read the first one before this to be important.

We are once again in the author's head here. This isn't just a story, just like in book one this is a semi-autobiography. The humor is still amazing and witty. There were so many priceless moments that made me laugh and love. He nails the realism once again and I have to say that really is a huge thing. We can all joke about what Johnny lives through with the character but when there's added realism we feel like we've been there in our own way.

Johnny has seen things that some have and some haven't and I felt like his eyes in many ways, going through a scene with him. We are all cynics in this world... at least the people I know are so in many ways we are Johnny.

There's a script included, one the author is trying to get Hollywood to read and love. It's my opinion we need more of these stories out in the world.

There's so much to love about this series, of course, the laughs and realism, but there's the rawness we don't see a lot of.

I recommend this series
