More than your average fantasy book! Let’s pretend that werewolves no longer frighten you, no longer surprise you, and you are craving a new twist. This book gives that to you. My favorite is that the main male character is Russian, further feeding my obsession with Dimitri from the Vampire Academy Series.
I picked up this book on just a whim, I had no idea what it was about or what it would contain, mostly because the description of the book’s plot is extremely limited on the back cover. However, the more I read, the more I wanted to read. It was easy to read and I was entertained through the book, but it has some interesting character development.

There’s not a lot of character depth yet, as this is the first book in a series. This was also problematic because most of the book was building up the background and the stage for the problem that the later books I am sure will solve. And the problem? A good one! Not the vampire loves the girl but they can’t be together, and not just your average book where vampires and pixies and all the folklore characters are normal either. If you are a conspiracy theorist, you should definitely read this book. A perfect addition to the young adult addition we all have.
