Inception
by Bianca Scardoni
Audio book review.
Think The Vampire Diaries (show, not the books, I never read the books), but where the main character Elena Gilbert is actually Buffy. That's the impression I got for most of this book. Our girl comes to town, gets a surprise job working at a night club (like The Bronze? lol). The bitchy girl from school is dating the cutest boy in town and is incredibly jealous that said boy keeps insisting they're not together. I enjoy reading her bits, just because she's so angry and delusional. Cutest boy wants nothing to do with our main girl (sorry, I suck at names), but is forced to be her mentor at work, finds himself bumping into her, rescuing her from awkward situations, or warning her away from a dark attractive stranger (like Spike??). Our girl feels pushed away by cutest boy, and kinda lets herself be pulled toward this dark stranger, who ends up trying to suck her dry. He's a vampire. Cutest boy saves her, turns out he's a vampire hunter with the ability to travel through space and time. Bitchy girl at school is a powerful witch. And our main girl? She's something very special, too.
Kinda cliché, but I found myself not minding it being predictable. I liked the character interactions, the dialogue feels genuine instead of forced, and the story was intriguing and kept me interested. Unfortunately, it's not super memorable or different from what I've read before (or seen, for that matter), so it's fading quickly in my memory. I did add the second book to my wish list, but I'm probably going to have to read book 1 again before continuing on, whenever that might be.
