review 1: I'm not exactly sure where to start with this book because there are so many things that I personally didn't like. I suppose it is best to mention that this is my personal opinion about the entire series, not just this one book. While others seem to enjoy it and others do not, my personal opinion is that it could have been better, needed more and is not something I'll be rereading. As a warning, there will probably be spoilers. The plot was extremely weak with little to no action and repetitive descriptions that left me cringing as I forced myself to turn my e-pages. There were so many things that bothered me. It started out okay with our slightly chubby camp leader dealing with the rich girl who tanned and the cute boy who gave her attention but was definitely more in... moreterested in the one putting out. That seemed realistic enough, but then it sort of went downhill. We're introduced to the bad guys who have no name but our characters are so doped up on drugged alcohol that they are unconscious for most if not all of it. They do not know what happened to them and who doesn't figure out that they've been bit in the neck? This is really the only time that we see who our potential bad guys are and all we know is they are monsters who kill or turn young girls that have no 'home' to go back to. Then our camp aids are expected to bond and mate happily with their chosen wolfman. Sure, there are some arguments but suddenly everyone is chummy chummy and 'rutting' as much as possible. It's not very realistic. The characters were very two dimensional with weak and repeating descriptors. It made it difficult for me to fall in love with any one character, protagonist included and it also made it hard for me to hate any of the antagonists, which were plentiful. The dialogue was utterly painful and unrealistic. Some of the things that were said just simply would never pass through someones lips willingly. The dialogue during any and all sex scenes in the entire series were repetitive, unrealistic and reminded me of really bad acting in porn. It's not the worst series I've ever read. While the writing style lacked tone, voice and characteristics that allowed me to fall in love with any part of the story, I was reminded that it has potential. With better care, a proper plot and climax, well thought out and planned characters, this story has chances. But where it is now, it's like the literature version of a b-movie. I forced myself to finish all six parts of Kristen's story but I have no desire to read anything else in by Kate Kent. Perhaps after my poor brain and eyes heal from this disaster, I'll look at some of her more recent books and see if her writing style has improved.
