My 100th post! Whoot!

Claire Danvers's college town may be run by vampires but a truce between the living and the dead made things relatively safe. For a while. Now people are turning up dead, a psycho is stalking her, and an ancient bloodsucker has proposed private mentoring. To what end, Claire will find out. And it's giving night school a whole new meaning.

I loved the book, even if I do blame it for the book fog I'm not stuck in - if I start a book before 10 am, I'm stuck in the fog all day. It was engaging and jumped into the plot line right away. Amelie was more fleshed out, and the crazy vampire Claire worked with was believable personality-wise.

However, if I ever meet Rachel Caine, I might have an overwhelming urge to slap her. 'Why,' you ask, 'You love her books!'

BECAUSE SHE LEAVES A CLIFF HANGER AT THE END OF EVERY NOVEL. I think I might explode if she does it again... (which she will.)

Overall Rating & Final Comments: 9/10. Stupid cliffhanger.
Glass House or The Vampire Diaries?: The Vampire Diaries explores more magic than Glass House does - it tends to lean more to the science side at some points. I prefer The Vampire Diaries, simply because you can read one book and be happy at the end.

Happy reading!
