of my expectations. Plain and simple, I stopped reading this book. I've had this book for a while. I got a lot of free books when I first got my Kindle but never got the chance to read them. Evren was one. At the beginning of the story I was like... "WOW, adventure, magic, and kick-butt action at last. Just what I like. The first pages of the story was great. The parents get killed, the sister is kidnapped by snake creatures and Deli, the heroine of the story,  is severely beaten and left for dead. These dragon-like creatures come along and save her life. These creatures are super human and end up changing her into one of them. Many things don't jive for me: 1. If it were me, I would be disturbed by my transformation into Evren. What is this Evren?  How have I changed? 2. She doesn't grieve or mourn the loss of her parents. No funeral, nothing for them. What happened to them? Are they still in the car? Deli remembers hearing her sister screaming while being dragged away by these beasts. Where is her sister now? Does Deli try to find her? Nope! The most pressing thing she wants to do is go to school. I understand she is 16 years old but come-on most 16 years old have a lot going for them. I'd want these guys who saved me to show me how to use my powers. I'd want to hunt down the creatures who has changed my life forever. I will never see my mother and father again. And, my sister, where is she? Is she ok? How can I save her? I would pester them until they help me-teach me how to us my powers. But no!!! Deli's most pressing issue is how hot Lucien is and her desire to go to high school. I just couldn't continue. Such promise in a story and it falls short.
