I have not read the first book, so I cannot say how this one measures up to it, but I am really glad I happened to get this free. To be honest, I was pretty skeptical about it from the beginning, as the synopsis sounded ridiculous, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt. The book is incredibly short, I think it classifies more as a novella than a novel, and the writing is incredibly simplistic. The story was not only implausible (yes, I realize it's vampire fiction and an author can do just about anything they wish in that genre, but COME ON...), it was also incredibly boring. None of the characters seemed fleshed out beyond mere caricatures, and the story was predictable. By the end of the book, I was so meh about all the characters and was glad to see the end of the story.I pity anyone who either paid $2.99 for the kindle version or $6.29 for the paperback. So not worth the cost to pulp it.
