In a Paris where magic is alive and well, Anouk has been turned into a human. She doesn't know what animal she used to be, and she doesn't quite care. Her days are pleasantly spent in the service of her witch as she acts as cook, maid, and butler all in one. However, when the witch is murdered, Anouk and the other animals-turned-human must seek for a way to lengthen the enchantment placed upon then assuring their humanity, as three days after a witch dies, her spells fade and they will revert to their animal state.
Shepherd's book was a bit of a roller-coaster. There was so much happening and issues being created that I felt didn't need to be thus resulting in quite a bit of frustration during reading. I was torn, the whole time, trying to figure out if this novel was intended for older or younger audiences as initially it came off as for younger, but had heavy themes of abuse and violence that would be unsuitably for such. This book was quite LGBTQIA+ friendly.
