I absolutely loved my time with this book. It took me straight back to my high school days of binge-reading YA vampire books and becoming completely obsessed.
I sped through this one in one night as it is so fast-paced and exciting (and, of course, it's a YA vampire book and my inner teen still eats that stuff up). I adore Rose a main character and the sexual tension between her and Dimitri is everything.
I also think, for a typical YA vampire book, this one handles issues surrounding mental health really well, particularly in its discussion of self-harm.
I can't wait to binge-read the rest of the series.
