“The song was full of longing and promise, the singer whispering that he knew all my secrets but they didn’t matter. He would love me anyway. Forever.”

I really loved the concept of the book: girl tries to save her best friend while fun humored vampire shenanigans occur seemed like so much fun.
Part of it has to be that I wasn’t really in the mood since I know I’ve sat through worse than this, but I think I just didn’t click with the book.
The book starts out with a pretty cliche set up. The descriptions of the places, people, and things did set up a cool atmosphere, but it was an atmosphere that reminded me too much other books I’ve already read and prefer. In that sense, the book didn’t have a lot to offer me.
The magic system is cute, but didn’t feel real or have real stakes. Get it? Stakes? And I love vampires, trust me! But I guess I wasn’t feeling it.
I’ll most likey try to read again in the distant future, but this one is definitely going on the shelf for a bit.
TL;DR: I wish I liked it! But it just felt too cliche and kitchy in the writing.
