Ellen schreiber5/29/2023 ![]() ![]() I also liked that we got some of her thoughts about dating a vampire and the possibility of being turned into one she takes the time to stop and consider the consequences of such a choice. ![]() It reminds us of how feisty and spunky she is. The positive is that her taking initiative and actually doing something is better than just moping around and wondering when Alexander will return. The bad thing is that it makes Raven looks like a clingy girlfriend, needing to know where her boyfriend could’ve gone off to only a few days after he leaves town. I feel like this sequence is both a plus and a minus. She goes out and does some investigating (calling herself “Nancy Drew dipped in black”) to figure out where Alexander could have gone. I know I brought it up when talking about the last book, but comparisons tend to come up between this series and Twilight, since they fall within the same genre and came out within a few years of each other. Unlike Bella, who does nothing in the several months the sparkly one is gone in New Moon, Raven is very active in this book from the beginning. ![]() ![]() Fortunately, this entry in the series held up better than the first. While I remember being very excited when I read this book a few years ago, I have to admit that I had to hold back any fond teenage memories of that reading. When I first discovered the Vampire Kisses series, I read some of them out of order, this entry being the first one I picked up. ![]()
