Discuss the book here!

The question to think about is:

Daemon dislikes humans. No human girl has ever caught his eye before. So why is he so attracted to Katy? What is it about her that draws him?

Feel free to extend the discussion beyond the questions and simply talk about the book as well :D


Elodie  | 4 comments I think its not Katy I think he has been curious since Dawson and Bethany. I think it was just right time right place with Katy


Melissa | 869 comments I don't know, the chapters from Daemon's perspective made it seem like it was love or at least lust at first sight. Why hadn't he had that reaction with some other human girl if it was a random thing?

Melissa | 869 comments This kinda makes me think of Katy's feelings towards Daemon:
I Don't Wanna Be In Love, by Good Charlotte

She's going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taking her for granted
She wants to see if there's more
Than he gave she's looking for

He calls her up
He's trippin' on the phone now
He doesn't want her out there
And alone now

He knows she's movin' it
Knows she's using it
Now he's losing it, she don't care

Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Feel the beat now
If you've got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Back it up now
You've got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

He was always giving her attention
Looking hard to find the things she mentioned
He was dedicated but most suckers hate it
That girl was fine but she didn't appreciate him

She calls him up
She's trippin' on the phone now
He had to get up
And he ain't comin' home now
He's tryin' to forget her

That's how we come with him
When he first met her
When they first got together

Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Back it up now
You got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

To the beat, to the beat, to the beat
You got nothing to lose
Don't be afraid to get down

We break up, it's something that we do now
Everyone has got to do it sometime
It's okay, let it go
Get out there and find someone

It's too late to be trippin' on the phone here
Get off the wire, know everything is good here
Stop what you're doin', you don't wanna ruin
The chance that you got to find a new one

Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Back it up now
You got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love

No, no
Now you know what to do
So come on, get up, girl

I think the fact that she doesn't fall all over him at first sight. She stayed true to herself and gave him some sass ;) And I'm sure it was her love of books was what finally broke him.
