Review: A different kind of super hero
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 10 13, 2013
I didn't love this book but I didn't hate it either like some of the other reviewers. The beginning does seem like a spin off of Twilight,I'm not gonna lie but that was were the similarities ended.  The vampires can go out in the sun and no they don't sparkle when they do.Kira is what is called a Conduit which means that she harnesses sunlight and can kill vampires with it. Two things though, one she doesn't know it and two she isn't just any Conduit, she's like a super Conduit. She's a cross between the two different kinds and has powers like no other.Kira's father has lost his job so so she had to drop out of the boarding school in New York that she attended and finish out school in Charleston. Now she's a senior among a whole school of kids that have known each other for most of their lives.  She meets Luke on her first day and they become instant friends.  He introduces to his other four friends and they welcome her into their group.The first time that she sees Tristan and his group she knows that they are different but she can't figure out why  and she is instantly intrigued with him. She can't stop thinking about him even though Luke tells her that she needs to stay far away from him and his friends.This book is full of surprises and like I said, other then the school lunch thing, really nothing like Twilight. I will read the second book which is apparently already out because I have to find out what happens. This one doesn't really end on a cliffhanger because there is an epilogue but it does leave you with wanting to now more. 3.5 stars
