This book has a wonderful story and I honestly could not put it down. I finished the entire series in a week. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because I don't like the writing as much as I do the story. It's about a girl based in Texas (born and raised) yet the way this 16 year old speaks sometimes makes me question where she's living. "Bloody hell" and "I feel like such a twit" aren't phrases I'd expect to hear from someone like Kylie in real life. Much of the dialogue that comes from the kids doesn't really make much sense to me; it doesn't sound like words teenagers would say in real life.
All in all, however, the story is very creative and I honestly didn't want to put down these books. When I finished the first two, I ran to Barnes & Noble to buy the rest of the series as quickly as I could. I'm sad that it's over.

It was good but I wish that they didn't allow series books to be published without the entire series being finished cause the you have to wait years... ay way it was good but they could've done it without the southern accent cause I can't stop thinking western.
Kaylie has had a really bad month. Her grandmother died, her parents are getting divorced, she gets dumped by her boyfriend and she and her best friend Sara aren't as close as they used to be. Not to mention the night terrors and the weird guy she keeps seeing. But when her mom forces her to go to a camp for troubled teens...well, that's the last straw. Until Kaylie realizes that it isn't exactly a camp for the troubled, more like the supernatural. But she's human, she shouldn't be there or should she?
The journey in this novel was smooth and interesting. True, a lot about Kaylie was frustrating but it didn't take away from the novel, instead it reminded me of those friends you have that you can only handle in increments. That was who Kaylie was and as she navigated through self-discovery, dealing with her new friends and her ex who suddenly wants to be back in her life, we watch as Kaylie grows. Even if she doesn't realize it herself.

Completely amusing and awesome!
This book was so much different than I imagined it would be, but in a good way. Honestly, it was much better than I originally thought.
So, this book is probably the weirdest book I've ever read. But it was amazing. Like, it had all of the cool Supernatural beings, like werewolves, vampires, faeries, and witches in it, bringing them all together to communicate and interact. It also dealt with a lot of teenage issues, such as romance and parental problems.
The plot was pretty straight-forward and fast-paced. But it kept you very interesting, or at least very amused. A lot of things that happened in the book was made to be humorous, and not a lot of things were taken too seriously, but when they were, it happened amazingly. I really liked how everything came together in this book. It wasn't so much of a storyline happening, though. I believe this book was meant so you could get to know the characters, and understand the world, as well as get the rest of the plot for the next four books started up. Overall, this book had all the good things a book should have; loads of humor, a good world, normal teenage problems, love, and betrayal...It was all pretty good.
I liked most of the characters. Kylie, the main character, did annoy me at first. She was in denial through a lot of the book, and that just made me mad. And she was acting very immature when it came to dealing with her parents. Also, she wouldn't really give any of the guys a chance, but she kept leading them on. But, in the end, she really did grow, and I really started to love her.
Derek, the guy that instantly starts liking her, was pretty awesome. He was cute and very generous with her feelings, and he was also very protective. Although, I did get a bit of a bad vibe from him, but let's hope that's just because I am on the team of the other guy that likes her...
Lucas. He is more of a rugged, hot type. At first, he was more closed off, and thought to be an enemy, but then you find out otherwise and learn some of his past. At this point, I thought he was awesome, but still very mysterious. But once you got to know him more, you saw he was also very protective. He was a pretty good character, and I'm hoping to see him more in later books.
There was also Kylie's new friends; Miranda, Della, and Perry. They are all of different supernatural species, and they all made the book to be better, if not more funny.
Overall, this book was really good, and I will definitely be reading the others.
