Ooh what a fantastic book.
First of all, the female character isn't underage!!! She is a human competing in a vampire tournament, but at least she's old enough to drink.
This book has revenge, plots, twists, sword fights, love, family, and sorrow.
I enjoyed how each of the characters is different and each has hidden bits that slowly get revealed.
Nothing is ever straight up told, but presented in a lovely way.
I throughly enjoyed the writing style!
And I have already checked our book two, I enjoyed it that much.
