I really liked this story. It helped me understand Shay a bit more, though I still like Ren better, I really liked reading from Shay's PoV. This was a great story.:)

this is a good novella to start the series and I'm glad I read this first.
this gives us a bit of background as to who Shay is. Where he's come from, why he's been moved to the Vail area and just fills in some small questions that arise in the first book.
lots of hints as to what some of the things Shay sees, hears and reads that make sense when reading book one.
not too heavy, well written, and I think makes you look at the character of Shay differently than had you read Nightshade first without this, so recommended to read first!

Toto bolo úplne zbytočné a totálne o ničom. Shaya mám v sérii rada, ale tu mu autorka nevytvorila dobrá príbeh. Ani zďaleka. Sakra, veď 70% knihy sa týkalo Facebooku -_-
Tá polhviezdička je akurát za toto:
Poté co Victoria nahrála odstavec o vraždících andělích ze seriálu Pán času, jsem oběhl dům a pro jistotu zkontroloval, jestli se žádná ze soch nepohnula. Na chvíli jsem uvěřil, že se každou noc sochy v domě systematicky stahují kolem mě.

A quirky, fast read, Shadow Days is interesting if one wants to know the roots of Shay's fascination with the library and the urge to rebel. The witty, sarcastic dialog and the overall outlook of him was very welcome.

I really love Shay as character. This book was very well written and I did really enjoyed it. First I read Nightschade 1, 2 and 3. I really hate #3, the end was horrible. But this story ( #0.5 ) was very very good.

What did I just read?
I'm not very intrigued to read th series. The beginning was really good and then it got to a weird level and then things just rushed on in the end.
One thing I want to know is

I think this definitely could have been a full novel. Things moved a little too fast and so much was happening!
I knew Nightshade was about werewolves but this seemed to be about ghosts, or even witches. Shay was finding creepy noises and strange occurences throughout his new mansion of a home.
I wasn't really expecting any answers because it's just a novella but I was hoping to get more from this. Maybe after I read Nightshade I will understand some of the things that happened in here a bit better, but I am sad I didn't like this very much.
The suspense was good, and there was plenty happening to keep my attention. But I couldn't quit picture certain things Shay was doing because of the descriptions, or lack of.
Overall, interesting read.

I have to admit that this was an excellent prequel to a series I've waited to read for quite a long time! And, I'd never read before a work of Andrea Cremer, so I must admit I'm quite excited I did.
I enjoyed her writing style very much, and now I'm even more anxious to start reading Nightshade.
Actually, I can't wait. I regret having to study and not being able to begin right now!
