Review: So twisted and frustrating

This book was very confusing and frustrating for me to read. Ara spent most of this book in two minds and constantly deciding between being in love with David after a short period of time and then having repressed feelings for Mike who initially did not return her feelings and drove her to move to the other side of the world to start over. I just wished she would pick one already and put the other out of their misery. While Ara is young, she was so indecisive and switched from one to the other constantly hurting everyone concerned with her choices. She loved David but could not accept his lifestyle or that he would not stay with her if she remained human so did they love each other enough, not sure on that one really. Both of them did not want to give up anything to be with the other and Ara's constant whining drove me crazy so I can understand what it would have done to both men. "Spoiler alert." Then she constantly courted danger as if she had a death wish and when it was almost granted, still kept the secret of who tortured and almost killed her. After going through something so traumatic, to piggyback that experience with a wedding, well talk about crazy. It certainly never worked out how Ara expected her life to go and she seemed happy enough to wallow in her misery as melancholy seemed to be her only feeling of late. I found it to be a bit like a car accident as much as you don't want to look, you have to take a peek so I kept reading.
