5 comments about Got Fangs?.

1. I liked this book. It was a nice read. The only problem I had with it is due to a printing error. Because of this printing error, the pages go as follows; 121, 132, 133, 124, 125, and so on. 132 and 133 take the place of 122 and 123......these pages never appear in the copy I recieved. Beside's missing two pages, I liked the story. It was a fast read, and it was cute. I'm buying the second book for sure. Great for any vampire romance person, or for any paranormal fan.



2. Got Fangs is a fun, short read. Although I have not read any of Katie Maxwell's other books, I liked her writing style very much. It reminds me of MaryJanice Davidson's Queen Betsy series (lmao damn i like those books). Francesca (Fran) wasn't a dorky "oh pitty me" type of girl, and isn't a fashion-model-petite (that gets pretty annoying in books, the main character being a small petite lil thing), so I liked her character. The vampire - excuse me, Dark One ;) - named Benedikt (sp?) is a macho "its-my-job-to-protect-the-women" type of guy, which is usually annoying but the author was very good at not over-doing it so it wasn't a bad annoying, just a "he's being like that again?" type of thing. Anyway, I had fun reading this book and got quite a few good laughs out of it, plus it was interesting enough to keep my attention, while not being a "serious" read.



3. I cannot wait to see what happens in the following book, Great Read.



4. Fran just wants to be a typical teenager. Unfortunately this is impossible since her mother has decided to take Fran away from her school and friends so that they can join a traveling carnival of psychics, mediums and magicians that can do real magic. Even more distressing to Fran is her secret ability which gives her way more in common with the carnival workers than she likes. However, someone is stealing from the fair and might just shut it down. Just as Fran begins to think she might get her wish to go home she meets Ben, a very hunky vampire with a very personal interest in Fran. Ben, combined with Fran's surprising new pet horse, Tesla, are now making Fran second guess her desire to be anywhere but where she is. But, can Fran find the thief before the fair is shut down for good?
   
   I can't believe that Got Fangs? has escaped my vampire obsessive notice for this long. With a mixture of adventure, mystery and romance I found I really enjoyed this story very much. I found the characters to be interesting and well written and Katie Maxwell certainly makes a wonderful addition to my list of favorite young adult vampire genre authors.



5. THIS WAS SUCH AN INTERESTING READ.
   This book is about a girl named Fran and how she wants to be normal, yet a gorgeous vampire nick named Ben is smitten by her. The read was adorable as far as YA books go, but Fran did upset me because there is so much a man can take. I just wanted to slap here, but I still loved her character. And, Ben was magnificent, so patient and adorable with Fran. Ahhhh!

5 comments about Queen of the Slayers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer).

1. I think people who are madly in love with both Buffy and Angel can appreciate this novel the most. The storyline follows the final season of Angel, with the Immortal and such. So I think it was an intelligent idea. Maybe not the best book ever, but not horrible.



2. Like many, many others, I really wanted to like this book. It was very appealing to see how the story might continue after the end of the television show. And, to Nancy Holder's credit, the characters' voices and mannerisms are vintage Buffy. Unfortunately, the characters don't really grow and develop much and the plot is a disjointed, non-credible mess, in which things happen to the relatively passive and hapless characters. All of that might have been tolerable, if a bit disappointing, but for the ending. . .which can only be described as bizarre, bewildering, and generally god-awful.



3. i wouldn't recomend this book to anyone unless they were a die hard buffy fan, if i wasnt I wouldnt even have finished it, not enough action and holder didnt show the personality of the characters of the show as well as i'd hoped. if your looking for a good buffy book try the lost slayer by christopher golden



4. After season 7 was over, I thought my life would consist of rewatching the DVDs and forming my own speculations of what would happen in a post-sunnydale world. Naturally I was elated to discover a novel that addressed this issue that I was so interested in.
   
   The book starts out marvelous. The bus scene is just incredible. But then the book becomes a train wreck!
   
   Here are my complaints:
   1. Couldn't stand how Willow was sometimes referred to as the Wicca, it just sounds so derogatory.
   2. There is crazy inconsistency with Xander and his eye/eyes. The author pays close attention to referring to his eye in the beginning of the novel, but she slips a lot towards the end, referring to him closing his eyes.
   3. Fight scenes are clipped or omitted, sort of like Shakespeare. But Shakespeare wasn't writing about super strong women using medieval weapons to save the world. (ex: Andrew goes to LA to find Dana and bring her to Europe, a page later it just talks about how he got her and came back. Just like that? She didn't even put up a fight?!)
   4. Willow's powers were understated. Does anyone else find it hard to believe she almost ended the world but yet can't seem to do so many things in this novel?
   5. Too many new slayers serve as cannon fodder. Don't even get me started on Cleveland.
   6. I do not, and WONT, watch Angel. So every reference to it was lost on me, thus I didn't understand the ending much.
   7. The ghosts of the past were a little cheesy.
   8. The Kennedy/Willow drama was hard to believe and just unnecessary.
   9. The endless amount of money and resources provided by the immortal was just a little too convenient.
   10. The ending is very inconclusive. Maybe I'm just ignorant, but I honestly have no clue about who or what died.
   11. What happened to the hell gods? The Borgia twins? Did Buffy slay them with the weird pale child on her shoulders?!
   12. What dimension did all those weird slayers go to?
   13. The epilogue really threw me off! (Angel didn't die, but Spike...) BUT SPIKE WHAT?! Argh I don't watch Angel, what happened?
   
   I could probably list a lot more, but I'm getting mad just thinking about it. I'll probably read the new comics, although that's a little too X-menish for my taste.



5. The book tries to serve as THE reference tome for everything that followed the end of the last season of Buffy. In truth, the book is required reading for real fans of the TV series, regardless of how good or bad the writing is. Given the importance of the subject matter, the book is a tremendous disappointment. Quite simply, too many events were packed into one volume, and in turn, rarely was any subplot developed well enough. If the book was viewed as a TV series, it would very well comprise half a season of episodes if written correctly. The TV series was wonderful in its development of character and plot, and the books should do that even more. Here the complete opposite happened. So, disappointing...but must read!

5 comments about Chain Letter (Avon Camelot Books).

1. Chain Letter has a very similar premise to I Know What You Did Last Summer. A group of kids are involved in a hit and run accident that kills a man. A year later, the horror starts up again when one of the kids, Fran Darey, receives the first of many letters in the mail. Only in this book, the letter is a chain letter. The chain letters ask them to do shocking, horrible things and it all goes downhill for the characters from there. But some of the things they're asked to do are actually quite amusing. For example, one of them is asked to mouth off to her teachers. I won't say any more but that's just one example of the dark humor to be found in this book (it's also an example of why troublemakers probably shouldn't read this book :)). So yeah, I thought that having it be a chain letter was an interesting twist to what could have been a stale plotline. I felt the ending was really sad and really satisfying (in a tragic way). That is why I was so disappointed with the sequel. The sequel just seemed to exploit supernatural elements to make it more spooky. The first one had a humanity to it that impressed me. It can`t compete with Poe or anything, but as a teen horror book, it's pretty good.
   
   It's good for 13 year olds. It's a little more mature than R.L. Stine books. The characters are more sexualized and the language is more harsh. But it's better written.



2. Chain Letter is one of Pike's earliest novels, written in 1986. Pike peppers this book with cultural references from the '80's, which make it a bit dated. How many teens in 2006 will have a clue who Natassja Kinski is and that she was in a sexy photo with a boa constrictor?
   
   The story starts out strongly. A group of friends have covered up an accident - or a crime. An ominous person calling himself The Caretaker knows all about it. The Caretaker wants each of them to do extremely embarrassing things - or he will kill them one by one. Will the friends stick together or turn on each other? Worse, what if the Caretaker is one of them?
   
   The best part of the novel was the setting of one of the character's homes, a deserted housing tract in the desert. Look at the cover and see the dark hills around the lonely house. Great setting and descriptive writing when talking about the tract! Good explanation as to why no one but this one family had moved in yet.
   
   Pike develops the characters well. Unfortunately, most of them are not likeable. The end was not smashing in that it was not a surprise, and Pike left loose ends hanging. Many incongruities in the final resolution were not explained.
   
   I was nauseated by the sickeningly sweet, sentimental, and totally implausible ending. Who cares about the budding romance between so and so? Oh, God, it was so Disneyfied! I also did not like the fact that Pike took the easy way out and had all the teens' parents away on long trips during all of the action.



3. This was the first Christopher Pike book I read, and is still one of my favorite ever. If you want to read something good, than this is the bookl. I liked how the letter had the whole colom system, and Neil being not just one of them, you have to read number two to see the second Caretaker(Sasha). In short, this book is good. Read it.



4. Of the four Pike novels that I've read, Chain Letter is by far the best. Pike works within a strict formula that involves a whodunit, attractive young protagonists, and a thrilling sense of danger. In this particular outing, these elements are bolstered by a stronger-than-average set of characters, and above all the nifty idea that a chain letter is making demands that must be met.
   
   This book could have served as the inspiration for "I Know What You Did Last Summer," and shares that movie's premise of a shared horrible secret that comes back to haunt the young beautiful friends who left a man for dead.
   
   Pike has a knack for moving a story along in the manner of a conventional thriller novel, and this book is extra exciting because of the gimmick of overt threats and unspeakably horrible demands.
   
   By playing on an Urban Legend, Pike has tapped into something that hits a little closer to home than most of his works.
   
   If you're going to give Pike a try, this is the book to cut your teeth on.



5. This book has a very good plot and very intricate twist. One of Christopher Pike's first books and also one of his best. If you can get a hold of this book read it for sure. It's about a group of kids who ecieve a chain letter telling them to do crazy things.To figure out this twist you'll need to pay attention to every clue and every message the Caretaker (the person sending the chain letters) leaves. Not a disappointment. A++

5 comments about The Hunter (The Forbidden Game, Vol. 1).

1. I read The Forbidden Game series as a teenager and since have read it a dozen times at least. I cannot begin to tell you how amazing this series is. Vampire Diaries by LJ Smith was recently re-released and I must say as good as that series is this one is 10 times better. I really hope it gets released again for a new generation. This story is so unique, based around a girl who buys a game from a strange store. Her and her friends end up opening up a veil that has kept a demon in the shadows who has just happened to have been in love with her for years. He brings her and her friends into the game to relive their worst fears. Even as a teen I fell in love with Julian, the shadow demon. He is absolutely breathtaking and everyone who reads this series will fall in love with this tragic character. Don't just listen to me, read it for yourself. If you like: Vampire Diaries, Twilight, Vampire Academy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Tithe, or any other book similar to these you will love this one!



2. Who's this mysterous man, well who ever he is, he can have me any time. Very good book to read and can get addictive in the world of L J Smith.



3. This entire Trilogy is just amazing. I was given a present of the first book when I was about 7 (10 years ago), and I immediately wanted the next two! I fell in love with Julian there and then, and was never able to understand why Jenny didn't just choose him! I've read these books over 20 times, and they're all falling apart. Everybody in the entire world should read them, because you're missing out if you don't. I highly recommend them. The last book is a nice finish, but it's incredibly sad. I wish it had ended differently! Anyone who would like to discuss these books, I've set up a Yahoo! group for it called theforbiddengame. Please join, I really like to talk about these books!



4. This is the most awesome book in the WORLD!!! It's so sad that it is going out of print! I found this book last year while looking for a scary book to read and I found this! I have re-read and re-read it so many times that it's almost falling apart not to mention the times i have let MANY other people borrow it!!! Everyone LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! Julian is like OH MY GOD HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I totally fell in love with the Prince of Shadows... I recommend it!!! HOpefully you'll get it before it's too late... Almost all L.J. Smith's book are going out of print!! Especially the NIGHT WORLD series that are awesome!!! Tells you of how when someone breaks the rules of the Night World they have to Pay!!!!!! Forbidden Game is a page turner and so romantic, courageous, loyal, evil, good, betrayal and everything!!!!!!!! READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



5. like the other reviewers, i've read this book when i was 16. now at the age of 21, i still find this book captivating and have reread the series a dozen times over the years. the ending always makes me cry. the characters are memorable especially julian. this is a book you'll treasure and reread no matter how old you get.

5 comments about Everworld #08: Brave The Betrayal.

1. Most YA series are for girls. A few are almost gender neutral.
   I recently finished #8 and am pleased the the character development over the arc of the series. We will see if the authors can maintain.
   The aliens are a bit weird. I wonder if they come from a fictional or movie tradition I am not aware of.



2. I was so pleased to return home from work 3 days after ordering and finding the book in my box! The condition was better than expected and I am now almost finished with this volume.



3. I would have to say that so far this was my least favorite book. Don't get me wrong though, I still enjoyed it.
   This books has the group leaving Olympus in order to find Senna's mom in Egypt. They must find Senna's mom so she can send the Coo Hatch back to there own world so they'll agree to quit making weapons for the Hetwan. They make it to Africa where they meet Eshu. He turns out to be a "speaker" for the African gods and claims that they must make a sacrifice to please the gods. The majority of the group is against this and so Eshu sends them through many perils. One of them is sending to a world where everything is upside down. There they meet some of there Viking friends. Can they make it out of this world alive without having to make a sacrifice?



4. I love all of these books but since Jalil is my least favorite character except for Senna. I didn't really like this one as much as the others. It had some pretty interesting twists though. Eshu was a real pain in the butt. I love what they did to Senna. She deserves it. Everone that loves Science Fiction has got to love this series. I can't wait till I can read number 9.



5. In this book, Jalil tells it all as he, Christopher, David, April, and Senna travel across a seemingly African plain, on a mission for the Goddess Athena: find Senna's mother, a witch who supposedly has enough power to open gateways between the universes. Along the way they have plenty of problems of their own, mostly revolving around Senna, who we're pretty sure now is at least a partial enemy. Jalil has a few real world difficulties as well (such as getting a date, hee hee). The characters are real as ever, and the discriptions vivid as always, but as a warning to those younger than fourteen or so, this one is also exceptionally gory, even more so than usual.

3 comments about Initiation (Vampire Beach).

1. After reading the first one, which was very rocky for me, I was reluctant to begin Initiation. I can say, however, that it was better than the first. I thought everything that was revealed in the first one was pieced together in the second one.
   
   However, I thought it was a little too action-esque. It didn't really fit well with the other one, which had very little action. It was also a bit confusing, which isn't very good in a book, or anything for that matter.
   
   Like I said in my review for Bloodlust, keep an open mind as you buy and begin to read this.



2. In the second installment of the VAMPIRE BEACH series, Jason Freeman is still coming to grips with the fact that the popular kids at his new Malibu high school are all vampires. And why shouldn't the vamps be popular? They're beautiful and rich, and they throw the best parties. But Jason knows those parties are simply an excuse to drink blood from unwitting human guests. It's true that the humans aren't hurt, the vampires need blood to survive, and many of those vampires are Jason's friends, but still... Let's just say that Jason is feeling conflicted. Then when his best friend from the old neighborhood turns up unexpectedly and under mysterious circumstances, Jason's problems multiply.
   
   As with the first VAMPIRE BEACH book, I love the premise. When I was in high school, I often wondered what it was that made the popular crowd so special. I could wear the same clothes they wore and sport the same hairstyle, but still something was missing. Maybe they were all secretly blood-sucking monsters. That would explain a lot.
   
   But, again, just like the first book in this series, the execution of the great premise left me cold. For one thing, this book is too short. I wanted it to delve more deeply into the characters and their lives. So much could have been going on in this vampire-run town, and I was constantly disappointed that the author wasn't exploring those things. I was also bothered by the fact that there were some pretty improbable actions being taken by people in this story. For example, if you're hiding in a roomful of vampires and your cell phone goes off, wouldn't it be odd if the vamps still didn't notice you were there? The reactions and explanations sometimes felt contrived and highly unlikely, which detracted from the story.
   
   In the plus column, this book seemed to have toned down the first book's uncomfortable attempts to use current teenage language. Or if it didn't tone them down, then I must have gotten used to them. Either way, it didn't grate on me the way it had in Bloodlust (Vampire Beach). Also, this story was interesting and it had a few twists and turns that kept me turning the pages eagerly.
   
   Overall, this is an intriguing book. I like the premise, the characters, and the story itself. Be warned, though, that this one is for older readers. Like Bloodlust (Vampire Beach), it contains references to alcohol and drug use, as well as some sexual activity and a little swearing. As for this book's problems, my chief complaint is that it left me wanting much more.

3. Jason Freeman has come to accept that there are vampires living nearby but still has the occasional nightmare about bloodlust. Then his aunt who helped his family move to Malibu arrives. Shortly after an old friend from Michigan also arrives. But the friend seems to be in trouble. At first Jason thinks its about the divorce of his friend's parents but soon Jason notices bits of odd behavior that make him wonder if his friend is in some serious trouble.
   
   But it is at a local party that things really begin to go bad. A priceless heirloom goes missing from the house the party was in and Jason's friend begins to act extremely strangely. Then it gets worse. The heirloom is actually a relic that is very important to the vampire society. A member of the head council has arrived and will put things right. But that will probably mean the death of the thief. Is it Jason's friend? Who is the council member? What is the object and why is it so important? Can Jason head off disaster?
   
   This was a very good follow-up to BLOODLUST. We learn a lot more about how vampires operate and how there society is structured. There are some unanswered questions at the end but they will hopefully be answered in future volumes. Since we already know of their existence at the start of the book, vampires play a much bigger role than in the first book. Although there will doubtless be more in the series there are no cliffhangers to make one want to wait for the next book before reading this one. Check it out.

5 comments about Driver's Ed.

1. One mom described the book as having a storyline perfect for "an after-school special." It involves a senator's son, a girl from an unconventional household, teen love, a burned-out teacher, death, a horrible secret and facing the consequences of one's actions.
   Most of our book club members thought the characters in Driver's Ed were two dimensional, and everyone agreed that both moms in the book were unrealistically portrayed. But we had a good discussion about actions that turn out to have dire consequences even though they seem harmless when you choose to do them. And we all got a chance to talk about our current experiences, with moms weighing in on frightening times in the passenger seat and daughters talking about parents "freaking them out" and making them nervous behind the wheel. It was fun to realize that most of our stories were similar.
   I would recommend reading Driver's Ed for the discussion it prompts rather than for the book itself.



2. This book is realy good. I am about to get my license and it teaches me some stuff.



3. This review on the book Drivers ED, is on the cool events of the book. The author is Caroline B. Cooney, she has written many books such as The Face On The Milk Carton.
   The book is about a girl named Remy Marland, and her friends Nickie Buddie, Lark, and Morgan Campell. It takes place in Junior High. They have been planning a sign-stealing trip. Remy wanted the sign Morgan Road. What better than the name of the boy she had a crush on. They didn't know who did it, but some one stole a stop sign, and it would have dire consequences. It is a stunning novel and I think you should read it. Just take my word for it. It is full of suspense and mystery, read it and you will be on the edge of your seat.



4. Driver's Ed is fast paced at the beginning, when a couple teenagers steal a stop sign for fun from a busy intersection. A young woman gets in a car crash at that intersection later that night, and dies because there was no stop sign. Overwhelmed with guilt, they don't know if they should tell the authorities or keep it a secret forever. After the accident, the book becomes slow, and boring. The author only talks about the teenagers' feelings and how they deal with making the choice of admitting to the vandalism. There are also many unneeded characters in the plot, making it complicated and confusing. As it draws closer to the end, the book becomes boring and predictable. The ending is abrupt, and doesn't solve the problems that have been building up throughout the plot. I would not recommend this book to advanced readers.

5. This is a book I read some years ago. I'm reviewing it now because I was thinking about it this morning. And any book that makes you think years after you've read it deserves a review, I think. I don't remember a thing about the structure of the story or the style in which it was written. I do remember feeling a certain distance from the story as I read it. Cooney is a fairly dependable writer; perhaps the distance had to do simply with my own particular taste. Regardless, the book has tremendous impact. If you read the other reviews, you will get the spoilers; I see no need for me to outline the plot here. What I want to discuss is the very effective, very real tension that arises out of what could seem like a very simple decision--a choice kids make, thinking it's going to be funny, thinking that what they do tonight has no connection to anyone else's life, or to their own futures. I have very good kids - I'm not at all worried that they'll do something easily definable as wrong. But I am afraid of their youth and inexperience, which has to result in a fair amount of short-sightedness, and of the level of silliness the best kids can hit when they are out together and egg each other on.
   
   I still remember the horror I felt as this story unfolded. As a mother, way past any such temptations myself, I still became the kids as I read. Cooney creates in the reader that sort of nightmare experience: in your dream, you have done something terrible, something really terrible and your life will never be the same. From the dream, you wake. The impact of this story is that there can be no waking. The terrible thing is there, and will always be there. My reaction to the story still lingers, after all these years. And so I save this book, when so many others make way for the new stuff on the shelves. I would sit a kid down and make him or her read this book if I felt like the lesson needed to be learned - or I would read it to a family out loud. This said, the book is not written in a didactic manner (preachy). The facts are simply laid out. When you read these other reviews, you will find plenty who note that the book is "hard to get into," which, with a writer like Cooney who knows her business, means that the book has some serious things to say and is not simply entertainment. There is a feeling of portent from the beginning. If only more people understood that so many stories in our own lives, if told by a storyteller, would start weeks before the mistake or accident or choice with a feeling of portent and forshadowing.
   
   Read it as a horror novel, if you like. Certainly, that's what it was for me. I still carry with me the imprint of its impact. It is a true cautionary tale. And if reading it can give any kid just a moment's pause before making a stupid choice, then God bless it.

5 comments about Evil Thirst (The Last Vampire, No. 5).

1. Oh my God!!! The twists in this book were amazing. I found myself screaming in excitment while reading this. It was so great... just like all the rest of them. This one made me cry at the end:(( I highly recommend the series!



2. In fact I LOVED the entire series! I think I read every book over at LEAST 4 times! I especially loved the character Kalika, loved the way he described her, loved her fathomlessness... I feel speechless right now, I don't even know what I say! That's how good it is... The book is religious, yet not so seriously so that you will punished if you do not agree or w/e, but simply, you'll be sucked so deep into the book you might even smart believing Sita's believes...



3. i read this book in year 7 this year and it is soooo cool! It is full of action as well as sad and happy emotions combined excellently. i think everyone should read it even people who don't read much will love this book. It is one of the best book i have ever read in my life!!!



4. The Last Vampire 5 is an excellent book. It can be grusome at times, but that is what makes it a good book. Buy it or you will regret it.



5. This book is amazing, (like the other 5) the hardest to get a hold of i must say, but this series really makse you think, and the ending in the last book just blew me away, i won't say any more though... I applaud pike for his writing, he realy makes you sympathize for a character that would be seen as the horror in most books, i loved it i think you should read it too, and if you plan to read the whole series (which you should) I suggest you read the collectors editoins, because the transitions between books is much less jerky. Read this book it is amazing!

5 comments about The House Next Door.

1. This novel tricked us. We expected an adult mystery novel, but instead it was much more like what a teen would enjoy. Very predictable and because of that, boring and a waste of time.



2. The Farmington house next door, is in bad shape, and it is creepy. Emma has always been scared of the house, when her brother bets her that she can't stay in the house for one whole night, if she wins, he asks Val (Emma's best friend) to the winter dance, if she loses, she never lives it down. On a whim she agrees. But it begins to get creepy when she relives the terrible night, and tragedy of two long lovers. It is odd enough that she shares the same first name with the Farmington girl Emma, but she looks just like her, and she feels a specail connection with Daniel a boy they beilved died in the fire. Now it is up to Emma, to put Daniel to rest for once and all. With the help of Charlie and val, she must solve the mystery before the day of the fire that killed daniel and Emma.
   
   This was such a fun read! It gave me goosebumps, but was more exciting then scary, i loved the plot twists and romance!



3. I loved it, but towards the end the last quarter of the book it; it seemed that there were somethings either: edited out, or possibly not even realized, it just felt like something was missing. But regardless Thank you for making reading fun.
   I have been reading Richie's books ever since one appeared in a scholastic newsletter when I was in middle school. As every one knows at that time there are sooo many reasons to hate reading. But She made me look forward it and to each and every book to this day.



4. I thought this book was very good. When i got done reading it i thought wow i almost wish something like that could really happened. Getting to relive something that you had nothing to do with. It was a very sad book and i couldnt put it down. Wish the ending was a little better though.



5. I have read almost all of Richie's books and besides the unseen series witch i highly Recommend this is her best work. this book was thrilling heart warming and full of surprises. Richie's books inspired me to write and now because of her i love reading and writing, I think everyone should read this book and all of Richie's others.

5 comments about Dangerous Girls #2: The Taste of Night.

1. I liiked how the story was more fast-paced and how it was more involved in the vampire stuff. But I also liked the first book better, here's why:
   The second book was too romantic, and in the second book Destiny isn't a vampire. I don't like how Livvy is much more mean in this book either. Though the cover art is better in this book, looks aren't everything. The perks with this was that this book is more fast-paced, interesting, and there are more charectors involved. But the ending wasn't as satisfactory as in the first book, though it was still very good! It was griping and I couldn't stop reading! This is just my opinion though.

   A good book. I liked the first one better. I really disliked the ending.

4. This is a fabulous, well written book.
   The story about the dangerous vamipres proceed in "Dangerous Girls 2".
   I must admit that the first book seemed better; there were some tedious and slow bits in this one. I will not spill to much information here, but there were, to me, some disappointments.
   Look apart from that, though, this is a great book.



5. This book is DAMN good. I hope a third one comes out. It's different. At the end my heart cried out cause it was so sad. I feel sorry for the twins. Very EXCELLENT book. One of RL Stine's best!
