This wasn't the worst thing I've ever read, however it wasn't a literary masterpiece either. It went quick because honestly it wasn't what I would call very taxing on the brain. Vampires, sex, crime, a brotherhood, more sex, a couple of women, some more sex, a bad guy or two, and did I mention the sex? I think if you eliminated all the sex you would have cut the book in half. I think it would have been a better book as well. Some of the stuff in here was really unbelievable...seriously unbelieva ...more

Beth has lived her life feelin like she doesn't fit in. Her parents died when she was born and she lived in foster homes until she was 18.

The book was not bad but I felt like I had read it before. ...more
