- Stray .. well wroth buying
Stray may actually be the best book I have ever read! You have the already messed up heroin being dragged through a frustrating family life that makes you want to scream, but at the same time sometimes wanting to bash some sense into her. Rachel's writing is beyond amazing is intensive, felt, raw and yet real, you are there with Faythe feeling her struggle in every living thing which she feels no edits no cuts and yet at the same time its not real its supernatural ... and of course there are the yummy boys! A book every twenty something girl must read!

(Some **spoilers** Kelley Armstrong's story line and Rachel Vincent's story line below)

I do admit there are some similarities in areas Kelley's books but the underlying ... Read More:

- Worth it for just over £3
I got into the genre after reading the twilgiht series and have never looked back. Alot of people have said it is similar to kelley Armstrong's book bitten but i find the character of Faythe in Stray alot easier to relate to as she is from my age group - late teens and she is alot like me in her attitude to the world. I found the characters were well written althoug at times i had trouble keeping up with which character was which, Micheal and Mark are too similar for my liking lol. I would agree with another reviewer that there isnt that much description of the charcters but i didnt really mind that fact as it let me make up my own decissions about what they all looked like. I would recommend this book for people in their late teens as it can be ... Read More:

- Really Good!
There are a lot of similarities between this book and those of Kelley Armstrong's'Bitten' and 'Stolen', the two in question I had read immediately before reading 'Stray' and hence highlighting the differences and similarities between the two even greater.
But, I found the book really enjoyable and although the characters and worlds are very similar, both books fit perfectly in the genre and one does not better the other.
I do like the main character of Faythe in 'Stray', as opposed to many opinions expressed by other reviewers. I found her very headstrong and determined, whilst being real and true also. Yes, she does appear selfish and a bit whiny at times, but the book enables the reader to see through her eyes and in my opinion, she ... Read More:

- Absolutely Amazing!!!!!!
When I first bought the book I wasn't expecting it to be too fantastic because the idea of werecats seemed a bit ridiculous! But boy was I wrong! Stray is no doubt one of the best books I've ever read, it's action packed and got plenty of romance in it (which for me is an essential for any book!), but most importantly you have to use your imagination when reading it, I can't bear simple books!! Stray had me on the edge of my seat and every so often I had to close it just so I could take a deep breath and try stop my heart from leaping out of my chest!! I would recommend this book to anyone who loves action, romance and has a decent imagination!

Stray is the first instalment of The Werecat Series.

Faythe Sanders is not just a normal college student. For one, she is not human, but a female werecat, who has a pride desperately wanting her to come home and do her tabby duties, which is getting married to a strong tom and the like. She, however, does not want to be a typical tabby, but wants to be free and live her own life.
But, when a tabby is kidnapped, Faythe is dragged back home for her safety, leaving her college life and human boyfriend behind. Faythe's life is then turned upside down.

When I first picked up this book I was excited about reading about werecats, instead of the typical vampires and werewolves that have took over the urban fantasy genre. ... Read More:
