WOW! So good. Of course, I love all of Cynthia Eden's writings but this is her first attempt at a YA novel and she hit it out of the ballpark. I can say that because a) it's true and b) I don't really care for YA so I was reading this book as someone who expected to "like" it. Instead, I really loved it.The Better to Bite is a fantastic paranormal mystery that leaves you guessing until the very end. The characters are believable and the story is, too. The young adults aren't smarmy and that made me happy. In the few other YS's I've read the authors tried so hard to bring back what their own teenage years were like. Can't be done because times have changed SO MUCH. Cynthia Eden wrote plausible, likeable teenagers who were smart, dumb, funny, sad, quirky, strange and just plain likeable people.Way to go Ms Eden - I think I'll read the next one, too! ;-)
