Lady My Life as a Bitch
Author: Melvin Burgess
If you gotta be a dog, be a bitch. — "My tail was going bananas as I rounded the corner and headed into Platt Fields park. The pavement was alive; my nose was an eye that sees into the past. I speeded up. Oh, I was in love with Terry, but to run and sniff and feel my ears catching sounds out of the air! But what do you know? Only a dog ...  more »

Sandra Francy is seventeen and having way too much fun. Everyone wants to stop her but the problem is, she likes it. When she accidentally gets turned into a dog she's horrified at first, but soon she starts to wonder if being human is worth the effort. Her attempts to hang on to her humanity are bizarre and often hilarious-but her life as a dog leads her to pleasures she hardly knew existed.

Award-winning author Melvin Burgess brilliantly captures the realities of teenage life and hormone imbalance.

I really didn't enjoy this book as much as I thought I would. As a dog lover,I liked the concept of it, but I just didn't really get into it.

I guess I hoped for the author to give more of a variety of things a dog might be thinking, but he seemed to just harp on the same things over and over again. It got a little old.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The concept is original, and it's a very fun read. Anthony Burgess is one of my favorite teen writers, and I recommend this book. Some of his other books are better, however, like Doing It.
