This is a pretty good series. Is it the best out there? No. But I'm still enjoying reading them, especially in between more intense books. These are ones that are very easy to read and so I can read them pretty quickly.

My world was black and white for months after I read this novel. It's short and bitter-sweet. Plus, if you have a fancy for twins, then this is your thing. The poems scattered here and there are a bit corny I must admit, but they add to the story line nicely.
I found myself trying to identify with the characters, but failing miserably. Rhodes gives us tons of backstory and everything, but the characters still feel incredibly flat. Plus the whole, "mad awesome strength" "not human" Mary-Sueness of Sarah just got to me after awhile. Not to mention, the whole story felt rather rushed. Before I could even try and get into the story, it was over. Overall, I thought this book was incredibly forgettable.
So far, this was my least favorite story out of the bunch.I don't think it's due to the fact that the main character isn't a vampire, i just didn't really care for any of the characters in this story.I do enjoy the poems before each story though, and i really enjoyed Christopher's poetry in the beginning/middle of the story.I just wasn't drawn in to these characters as much as i was with the characters from the first two...
