     my Thoughts (review)

This book was designed for a much younger reading audients. And you could tell as you read it. Though it was a good book, Raven was an over the top, kinda selfish main characters, that I think could become quite annoying as the series goes on. Though Alexander was great, in a little bit weird kinda way, but then the way the story went it made more sense than you would think. And then there are the two boys. One that was very in your face, and I was sure liked Raven, even if she never got it, and that was after he made out with her twice. And his best mate who finally sees the first guy for what he really is.

    

So Raven who is a Goth living in Dullsville, where she wears black and wishes to be a vampire when she gets older.

    

When a family movies into the mansion on the hill everyone is talking about them, and all they can say is there vampires. Raven wants to know the truth and as she does she meets Alexander who she falls in love with and decides she’s full of herself, there’s no such thing as vampires, or is there?

    

It’s odd, or at least the end made it so. But the book is actually really good, very clean, even the kisses is more about the deep love, or not, then it is about anything else. the writing style to is very different, though it’s very teen, it’s written in the first person and yet it felt, as I read it, that I was reading a diary entry, like she was telling of a story from after it happened, not when it was, and still it had that right there feel to it.
