In a world filled of garbage Twilight knockoffs, this book was a refreshing change to the ranks of modern day vampire novels. Instead of the usual gory, smutty drivel, this book focuses on a family of vampires trying to blend into modern day England.

The Dark Tower Series is winding, full of lulls and exciting gun fights. Over all the series is a great tale. It has taken me almost a year to read the whole series (plus many novels in between) but I am glad I read it.

I'm generally not one for graphic novels, but I thought this was well done. Many of my students are reading this series so I thought I would see what the hype was about. The artwork is beautiful. It is very easy to read and follow.

Fluffy goodness, a series of stories all set (to some extent) in a mall that caters to magical clientele. There were a couple of duds, but largely the stories were fun. I would be very happy to see some of them expanded into novels.

I pretty much love Nicole Pyland's writing. This book was a little different but still has the same deep, authentic feelings that make her novels so good. The characters are flawed but complex. The emotions this book brings out make it a must read.
