adventurous dark emotional tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

Rose spent so much time running in circles and getting side tracked it was annoying. Don’t expect her to see Dimitri until about 325 pages in. From there though things are intense. The nice thing about the slow beginning was there was more you learn about the vampire world in general. The ending is wild so be prepared.
