Switchcraft

By Mary Castillo

Best friends since back in the day, Aggy and Nely are as different as two women could possibly be. Aggie's slim, stylish, and owns an upscale boutique and a long history of no-strings relationships. Nely has a busy baby, a metiche mother-in-law, and some extra post-pregnancy pounds she can't quite shed. And when they reconnect at a New Age spa, each friend finds herself wishing just a little that she had the other one's life.

Big mistake!

Thanks to the metaphysical meddling of a somewhat grumpy guru, Nely is now Aggie and Aggie is Nely—switching bodies, love lives, families, closets . . . everything! The grass may not be quite as green as it originally appeared. As luck has it, they'll be stuck this way until the next full moon! And with a husband, his very suspicious mama, a temperamental tot, a business on the brink of disaster, and a sort-of boyfriend—not to mention a sleazy stalker—thrown into the mix, Aggie and Nely suddenly find they're not just walking in each other's shoes . . . they're running!

[thelibraryhag · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Friends, Aggie and Nely, are now leading lives that are very different lives They go on a girls weekend that includes a meditation session with a guru known for his transcendental powers. They get more than they expect when, during the meditation, they exchange bodies. Even more frustrating is that they have to wait until the next full moon to change back. I really enjoyed this book. It is chick lit but it does delve into problems people have to face at one time or another, relationships, trust, child rearing and peer pressure to name a few.
