Fateful by Cheri Schmidt

4.0

I really, really liked this book! I found that after awhile, I couldn't put it down. I loved that it took place in London. I loved the twist to the vampire story and the Frog Prince references. I think the writing is better in this book than Twilight, and I love Ethan's personality better than Edward's. There were some small similarities to Twilight, but I liked Ms. Schmidt's cursed version and the fact that Ethan is more a Mr. Darcy type. I also liked that Danielle is a black belt in Karate and has a strong personality. I liked the moral messages in this book and the tension that develops from Ethan's struggles. I liked Ms. Schmidt's take on vampirism and her inclusion of other mythical creatures. I also loved the humor in this book. At times, Twilight can be overly dark and moody. This book has some laugh out loud moments in it that I just loved. Overall, this is a fun, quick, enjoyable read. I'm on to read Fractured!
