my opinion:
I really enjoyed this book. Before I started reading it, I was scared that I wouldn't like it and get bored, due to reading so much vampire books. But that was not the case. The plot was great and I liked how it was written. The main character Celine is one of my favourite characters, she was a vibe. The girl-power she has shown, made me like her even more.
I liked how the author wrote in different languages and didn't translate every sentence. It made me feel closer to the characters and made it easier to "live" the story in my head.
And the end of the book... just wow. The plot twist... How I mentioned, the book is really well written.
