review 1: This may have actually been a 2.5 stars for me. I like the new take on vampires in this book, but a lot of other things annoyed me.I found it too fast paced. I thought the romances were too fast, and really needed to slow down, and I it could have benefited from having the action be a little slower. I could have done without details on the training, but whatever. Kaitlynn annoyed me so much. I hated that Brooke was allowed to randomly bring her along when she had to flee town. I get why Jaren had to go, he was there to witness the murder. But, Brooke whined and got to take her BFF. I know teenage girls need their besties and all, but that relationship turned me off. I found myself skimming the parts with Kaitlynn once they had fled. I liked Jaren, however, because I can se... moree why he'd be freaked out over everything. Yeah, the part with the ex-girlfriend annoyed me, but he didn't try to hide it from Brooke at all. But, he did witness his girlfriend kill someone, that'd freak me out. Then to be told she's half-vampire? I mean, he's still a kid, and I think reacted as a normal person would. I think I may be the only person who does not like the thought of Brooke and Mirko together. He just was too much for me, and I found myself rolling my eyes. I don't really like love triangles though, and find myself just wanting someone to pick already. And I guess I'm on Team Jaren. I do agree that the relationships moved right to love pretty quickly, but teenage girls are fickle. Maybe not that fickle but they are.I may read the second in the trilogy. I sometimes hate to start something and not finish it. I think it does have potential, but it needs some character development and to slow some things down.
review 2: I really really enjoyed this book. I liked how it sort of twisted and changed throughout and left a really nail biting cliffhanger at the end that made me squeal with the thought of the next book.Brooke finds out in a really awkward waythats she's half vamp, that someone wants her killed as she's considerd am abomination and has to go on the run whilst learning to control her new powers. Also there's two very hit guys to choose from! In the beginning I love love loved Jaren! What girl couldn't? Popular, gorgeous, sweet and not afraid to let his feelings bleed through. But then what the hell? As soon as he finds out what Brooke is, he doesn't leg it like most-which is brave but he breaks it off with her? Douchebag. And then has the nerve to flirt with another Full blooded vampire? Please! Eugh. Them enters Mirko, ah! Brave, also swoon worthy in the looks department but has that edge. The bad boy snarky attitude with confidence and not afraid to take what we wants. But has a bad past that makes you also want to admire him for. Yeah Mirko *sigh*. But I will never forget Lijepa! I actually had a good cry when I found out what appeared to her! Made. E feel sick and angry for vengeance. Such a loving woman whom took on kind of a grandmotherly role. She dies protecting someone she came to love and as brave and honourable as she was I wished things turned out differently for her. Kaitlynn-is every girls dream best friend! I love her and she was a great addition to this amazing novel/series whatever! I love Brooke's kick-ass powers! They were wicked and how that 'bitter' taste of her powers was revealed when you least expected! This novel was so soo well written and I enjoyed it immensely! The best part is that I had it for free! I can now go and buy the others knowing that my money would be well spent on a quality read! Loved it that's all there is too it!! less
