Ratings and reviews

I have to say this one book is better than the Twilight series. Although there is drama, everything is seen from a more adult point of view and when there is a problem someone does something. The story is also simple and not littered with arbitrary characters that have no life in themselves. There is danger, romance, and actual logic. I highly recommend this over the Twilight books.

This is among one of my favorite books to read. When you read this book you can tell that the author Annette Curtis Klause was very inspired when see wrote this book. the drama about the girl with her mother on the verge of death makes you think about the people that are in those situations. I truly recomend this book.

Very easy and nice read. Very much enjoyed. The book could have been drawn out a little more, everything moved too fast if you ask me. Other than that it was a very nice book.
