I'M COMING BACK FOR THIS. I bought the whole series and the sister duology, so I have to finish this. I LOVED the first book but this is kind of slow. I know it's super hard for a middle trilogy book to be very interesting, so I'd say this book meets expectations.

I really wanted to like this. I love a good vampire book. Did we really need to spend 140 pages on the introduction? Also, I have a feeling about which love interest she'll end up with and I'm not happy about it. MC is super unique and special and hates buying new clothes and isn't like other girls.

Okay, so I get that a main criticism of this book is the end; it wasn’t quite satisfying, but I don’t think there is a satisfying way to end such a convoluted story so I guess I can forgive it. I will say, this isn’t a character book, it’s a description book, if that makes sense. The characters are not quite rounded but rather dreamlike; they aren’t fully developed exactly, but I think that was the point.
