This was always my favorite vampire book series. Lots of original content, addressing classism, plenty of drama, and a ton of adventure. My only criticism is that there isn’t a ton of build up for either of the romances. I understand that a decent amount of time passed in the book and the author couldn’t write about every little interaction that made people fall in love but she could’ve spent a smidge more time on it. Other than that a great read with good plot twists!

Ich achte mittlerweile auf so viel mehr, was mir damals nicht auffiel. Es ist für Jugendliche geschrieben und das ist sicherlich ein großer Grund dafür, warum ich für mich nur sagen kann, es war entertainment und okay.
Das slutshaming und generelles Lästern und Runtermachen der weiblichen Charaktere hat mich doch immer wieder gestört.
Die Anziehung und sich aufbauende Spannung zwischen Rose und Dimitri wirkte auf mich überhaupt nicht mehr so überzeugend und spannend wie ich es in Erinnerung hatte. Eher stellenweise ein wenig plötzlich und wenig entwickelt, was die Entwicklungen am Ende (obwohl ich wusste was passieren würde) plötzlich und etwas unverhältnismäßig erscheinen ließ.
Mir ist klar, dass das hier weniger ein Review über die Schwächen und Stärken des Buchs als vielmehr ein Resume meiner Re-Read-Erfahrung ist. Und dazu gehört eben eindeutig auch, dass sich mein Lesegeschmack verändert hat und mich Teenie-Fantasy-Romanzen aus den späten 2000ern nicht mehr so mitreißen, wie mit 13 oder 14.
