About the Book: Vampires are born, not made. Making blood lineage disgustingly important, to a point where Isla’s entire life was completely destroyed by her own family, just so the bloodline would continue the right way, the way her parents preferred it. Having returned to the vampire society, she never felt home, and avoided what she could, until new King got crowned, and new entertainment started to unfold. You see, many a vampire dreamed of being able to turn humans. Be it due to love they felt towards someone. Or be it because they got fed up with the status quo… And someone seems to have finally found a way.
My Opinion: First three fourths of the book were great, simple, but solid woven plot, with refreshed vampire myth, a fun main character who could just be friends with Pam from True Blood, the way she carries herself. But then something happened, and entire final quarter got so incredibly cliché and predictable, it was almost sad. When book ends with a cliffhanger, and yet you know exactly what happens next – that’s just upsetting. Still. While characters were still a bit underdeveloped, they were just good enough to keep carrying whatever plot lacked. So I will read another one.
