    • A near-future story about vampires and other weirdness. I enjoyed the book, though the narrator has a tendency to ramble on a bit with some stream of consciousness commentary. Not your typical tragic vampire romance story.

    • I'm sorry but this book just didn't do it for me. I love vampire books, but this one was painful to read. The author just babbles on and on. In my opinion this book could have been at least 50 pages shorter (without all the rambling).

    • A friend of mine gave this to me and I have to say that I was quite skeptical to read it because it had to do with Vampires, but after reading it I have to say that it was a very good book, long, but good

I did have some problems with the first-person stream-of-consciousness narrative though, especially when Rae needs to flesh out her world to us (in huge narrative chunks that tend to throw off the flow of the story) or when she was busy kvetching about her life.

    • The story itself is very well-written and engaging. My complaint is the glaring lack of resolution. What's the point in making the reader wonder about the answers to questions if the questions will never be answered?

      The story itself is very well-written and engaging. My complaint is the glaring lack of resolution. What's the point in making the reader wonder about the answers to questions if the questions will never be answered? The book feels either unfinished or like the first book in a series -- of which it is neither.

Book Description

A new direction for an already successful fantasy author.

They took her clothes and sneakers. They dressed her in a long red gown. And they shackled her to the wall of an abandoned mansion-within easy reach of a figure stirring in the moonlight.

She knows that it is a vampire.

She knows that she's to be his dinner, and that when he is finished with her, she will be dead. Yet, when light breaks, she finds that he has not attempted to harm her. And now it is he who needs her to help him survive the day...
