3.0 out of 5 stars Puma by Jorrie Spencer, 5 Aug 2009

By jjmachshev "jj" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Puma (Paperback)

I get frustrated when I finish a book and feel like I 'missed' something. "Puma" by Jorrie Spencer began to give me that feeling halfway through the book and again at the end. I liked the imaginative plot and mostly enjoyed the characters and writing. But, for me, there was something incomplete about the whole story.

Callie is also Puma, at least that's what her other self insists on being called. Her Puma self wants to protect and when Callie receives a cryptic message from her 'sister' she stumbles into a siutation where nothing is as it seems and something is very, very wrong.

Dev can't remember his past. Of course, sometimes he can barely remember yesterday. He knows he is supposed to protect Scott. He knows that Scott saved him. He also knows that Scott has violated a promise that it hurts to try and remember. When Callie seems to resist Scott's 'push', Dev isn't sure whether that's a good thing but he knows it means she's in danger.

Callie was hard to relate to. Maybe it was her Puma self and the way she seemed to be at war with her own self. Dev was interesting in that he was the weaker character which isn't something often seen in this genre of books. Their attraction wasn't based on lifemates, matebonds, or any other woo woo which was a nice switch from the norm. But I just couldn't get over the feeling of missing something, either an earlier book, or the story will continue in a later book, or something! Since I enjoy Jorrie Spencer's 'Strength' series, I'll see if there really is another books I'm missing. If not, I'll just mark this one down as a weird story left unfinished for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Puma- A Joyfully Recommended Title, 9 Oct 2009

By M. Nix "Joyfully Reviewed" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Puma (Paperback)

Callie is a puma shape shifter. Having spent the majority of the last year in shifted, cat form, she finally becomes human again and is at the home of her foster sister. Although Callie has always been welcome where her sister lives, this home is different. Her sister and the other two inhabitants of the house `belong' to the owner, Scott. They aren't talking and the scenario keeps getting weirder and weirder. When her foster sister demands that she leave because Scott wants her gone, Callie promises to leave in a few days. She has to get to the bottom of Scott's control first, never suspecting the evil she will find and the love that she will discover in Dev Malik.

Jorrie Spencer has to write some of the most original storylines I have ever come across. Just when I thought I had Puma figured out, it would go in a different direction and while I thought I knew what the story was going to entail, I didn't. Her suspenseful and well thought out writing kept me pretty much in suspense the entire time. I had a hard time understanding why the occupants of Scott's house were so much under his control but that became pretty clear the more I read.

Suspenseful, chilling, and powerful, Puma is a shape shifting novel unlike any I have ever read. Available at Samhain, don't miss it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat fragmented...maybe intentional?, 11 Jun 2011

By C. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Puma: a Northern Shifters novel (Kindle Edition)

I have read most of Joley Skye/Jorrie Spencer's books. This book falls into the minder/shifter world that most of her other books are in. I really enjoyed all the other books in this series. This one just didn't work for me. It felt really fragmented from the beginning. This story didn't seem to flow as well as the others. It is possible that this was intentional to represent how the minders mess up peoples minds, but it made for a choppy story. I didn't really feel the H and h. They just sort of hooked up and decided to make a go for it. I didn't really feel any chemistry between the two. Although I plan to reread most of the books in this series, I probably would not reread this one.
