review 1: A fictional Mystery Novel that draws you in with its beautiful yet scarey cover. A beautiful blond girl hangs upside down while exposing her throat to an unknown mystical creature. 17 year old Emma seems like your average teenage girl...but one strange thing about her, shes thinks shes cursed. Emma sufferers from epilepsy,because of her condition she doesnt have a normal teen life. What she doesnt know that her epilepsy is nothing compared to what she must face after a supernatural creature changes her life forever. After a strange encounter with a tall dark creature emmas epilepsy saved her life, but did it? As she starts to notice changes in her body things started to get a lot weirder around her house, to keep her family safe emma disappears into the NASA space ... morecenter miles away from her home town. Being stalked by her creator Emma searches for a way to defeat him while also learning the ins and outs of her new life. I love this book, it caught my attention and intrigued my sense of adventure and mystery, but with its length and somewhat drawn out storyline i would say it is more of an adult read. Teens may get confused as they try to keep up with the book as it jumps from the past to the present multiple times. It may become a little confusing to some it you dont pay enough attention to details. Those readers who do connect and stick with it could find themselves intrigued and craving for more.
review 2: My brain freezed, withered, and died after reading this book. It's slow-paced and packed with teenage angst, which isn't a very good combination. It wasn't awful but it was nor that great either. After I finished reading this, I was left full of questions like what will happen with the Sonnens, will Sagen be turned as a vampire, and will he be half vampire? If not, will he be one of the bad ones? the questions are endless at this point and I think the writer was planning-or already writing a sequel, if not, how will these questions be answered? Argh, until now my brain isn't fully-recovered. My conclusion, this story is half-assed. less
