Was it just me or did anyone see that this book lacked a lot? First off, the length of the book was way to short for the story. It seemed to be rushed and simplified. The style of writing was nothing that can stand out in the Young Adult genre (very similiar to Anne Rice's over dramatized style). And the story was the same old vampire-point-of-view tale. I don't really want to start on plot holes, but I will. I lost count after about page 70 on how many times I fell into one of the many plot holes. On a final note, I would like to say that Rhodes will hopefully mature and become more creative over the years. And I am looking forward to see what she has in store for the next novel and will read it.
