While this was out of my normal genre, I still found myself captivated by this tale of innocence lost. Victoria is an intriguing and believable main character, and it was fascinating to learn the truth of her past and experience her heartbreaking story first hand. This is not a lighthearted book...much the opposite. It will leave you breathless and in tears, stunned and forever transformed. I found myself consumed by the darkness Victoria experiences at the hand of the vicious man who captures her, and was instantly committed to seeing her long overdue redemption.  I will give Booth major props for creating two main characters who will stick around in my mind for years to come.This book is, on its face, about vampires, but it really embodies so much more. Booth skillfully explores legends ranging from Greek mythology to South American folklore, which in the end makes Created one of the most unique novels I have ever read. Coupled with vivid descriptions and haunting emotional turmoil, this book really throws basic vampire legend on its face and makes no apologies. I can't wait to see what else Booth delivers in the future, for she is really a talent to be reckoned with!Note: I received an advanced review copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
