I hated this book. No offence. But seriously. I didnt find anything about it remotly interesting. There is nothing about this that would make me even want to consider picking up the second book.
Firstly I didnt like the characters. 'Sida' or whatever you want to call her, had NO personality and i found myself hoping she died or waiting for her to show some real compassion.
Secondly Her realationship with Ray needed to have more development. As if people are like 'Oh hey i kill people all the time because i am a vampire, oh i killed your day. But i look into your eyes and im inlove with you eventhough its only been like 20 minutes into knowing you and i dont give a crap if you already havea gf.' Then when he 'dies' (which i dont actually think he has) shes all like oh no poor poor me blah blah blah, then moves off into her own little world like Ray didnt even exsist. Oh yes i defo see all the love there.
Personally i think, there was was to much death, blood and no emotions. Not enough character connection, not with any of them. I actually think my favorite charcter was the bad guy. And i cant even remember his name. Thats how bad i thought this book was.
For such a large novel, the contents sucks. I found myself only reading the dialoge and skipping pages.
I truly hope the Next series is better.... But im not going to read it to find out.
Sorry.
