Review: Started out disliking this book, but read my way into a great story :)

For the first quarter of this book, I was disgusted with it.  It seemed to be a blatant Twilight rip-off; I had fun making notes on my Kindle making fun of the characters and situations.  It was so predictable!  Then......Suddenly, in spite of the obvious similarities, it drew me in and hooked me.  I ended up liking Bryn and William, even William's family (Cora *is* Alice, by the way--she "dances".)  I like the idea that vampires can have small "indulgences", such as eating human food and sleeping.  Bryn is a strong character, not passive like Bella Swan.  William sometimes seems like a wimpy Edward Cullen, but he's different at the end.  Yes, I admit it, I know far too much about Twilightland for a 58-year-old grandmother ;)I can't wait for the second book, Fallen Eden.  I'd have bought it today if it were available.
