I shouldn't have bought this series. I shouldn't. Now I'm loving it, I will have to buy the rest of the books and I will be poor for the rest of my days.
I LOVED THIS!
I'm giving it 5 stars because 4 didn't cover how much I loved the book though I still don't think it is on par with other of my 5 stars books. But, oh boy. You know when you read a book but you don't realise you're reading a book and when you do you have already finished such book?
Well, anyways. THIS BOOK. I read in one day in two sittings. I'm not even English native speaker so I can tell you that the wrriting is easy, engaging, funny and very very easy to follow. Also, though this book doesn't deal with the kind of problems the first one did, it still surprises me that this series throws some questions out there.
I still have some problems with Rose and his bitchy attitude. I know she's suppossed to be a badass and all that, but sometimes she's too close to the MarySue line for me to like her. However, I'm delighted to see that the character developement here is real. I swear to God I was crying while reading the last 2 pages of this book.
I can't wait to pick up the third one, but I don't want to because I know I'm going to fly through it and then I won't have any more VA books to read.

Sure, "vampire ski weekend" sounds goofy, but hot damn! This series is badass.

O.W.L.'s Readathon 2019
“Rose only hangs out with guys and psychopaths," said Mia.
"Well," he said cheerfully, "since I'm both a psychopath and a guy, that would explain why we're such good friends.”
This was so much better than I expected! I found this one to be really captivating, and it was exactly the medicine I needed after reading such a mediocre vampire book before this. I love all the character development for Rose as well, it's really nice seeing all these different sides of her and seeing her grow as a person. Also, I think I'm in love with Adrian, he's extremely charming, and adds that nice bit of spice to the story. I'm pretty excited to continue this series.
