Emma Mead’s books have interesting and pretty covers. Beneath Manhattan Skies is no exception. The words of the story flow smoothly across the pages, making Erin’s world believable, if you believe in vampires, that is. So, let’s go into the city and see what is happening.Looking through Erin’s eyes, we see the world as a teenager, going through the angst of roommates and forbidden love during her college years. But, how many people can say they were jilted by a vampire? And what happens when he shows up again?I knew James, her vampire ex-boyfriend, would enter her world again, even as she struggled to move on from their break-up. Do you remember all those hormonal teenage uncertainties and insecurities?Emma Meade’s descriptions of the characters make them come to life. Sadie is everything you could ever want in a best friend. Loyal, giving and accepting of Erin, vampires and all. The cast of characters stand by her and put their lives on the line to solve the mystery of the killer vampire and end his run of terror.With plenty of mystery and the paranormal, I enjoyed this novella. I would highly recommend Beneath Manhattan Skies to all the Young Adult paranormal lovers out there.I received this book from the author in return for an honest and unbiased review. Thank you Emma and I look forward to traveling through many more fantasy worlds with you.
