This book was SO MUCH BETTER than I was expecting!! After hearing a couple reviews lately I definitely thought I would like it, but I'm seriously having a hard time thinking of a rating other than 5/5 stars... and I thought I would give the first book 3 or 4/5. Maybe I'm easily impressed but who cares!!! I loved it. Dimitri is so adorable and so much sexier than I was expecting. I kinda love that he's older because my boyfriend is 4 years older. Haha.

I've lost count of how many times I've read this book, it's always one I go back to (the whole series is one I've read plenty of times). This book came into my life at a time when I'd only really started getting into reading and I can only say I fell in love.
Rose is a character who not only has confidence and a clear goal, she has flaws that are relatable to young adults (even if she's half-vampire). I love how the story focuses on friendship between her and Lissa, and I love that just because R ...more
