I've heard amazing things about this all over and I cannot believe I still haven't read this. After Twilight I anxiously tried to avoid anything Vampire but see from your review that there is just more than one type of vampire.

Rose could be a bit annoying at times, but I also like her. And Michelle writes such good romances, the build-up is slow, but that's what I like about it. The characters really get to know each other first.Your review makes me want to re-read VA, it's such an amazing series. I actually read the first three VA books when I was in in a vampire mood after reading Twillight and House of Night. I still like vampires in books, but haven't read a good vampire book in a while.Lola Rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14284689418552571180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-32047977615051810682014-09-10T22:11:34.391+01:002014-09-10T22:11:34.391+01:00If you liked this one, just wait.

Although saying that, you are still to read the tear fest that is Blood Promise.<br><br>Back to the review, I think you captured everything that people love about the books really well, also really glad to see I'm not the only one that had a problem with the bitchiness and school like behaviour at times, it's no secret that it was one of the things I hated about the book and made me think the series wasn't for me. (we all know how that turned out haha)<br><br>I'm so glad that you liked it, I was really worried that your wouldn't like it as much as me after talking about it for so long, and recommending it in pretty much any meme.<br>Honestly can not wait to hear what you think of the others :)<br><br>Perfect review Amanda, as always :)StacieSnapehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894518924876371938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-39358135333220359352014-09-10T13:33:53.204+01:002014-09-10T13:33:53.204+01:00Ooh I am glad that you enjoyed this one in the end...Ooh I am glad that you enjoyed this one in the end, Amanda!
