REVIEW:
I haven't accepted in a long time a book to review and when the author asked me to do a review for her book I thought it'd be nice. And indeed it was. This book talks about vampires, witches and ghosts in the modern England.
What I liked about this book was the simplicity it had. Even though Lauren experiences all those weird visions and learns so many new things from the moment she meets Gavin, it surprised me how cool she was. She never lost her temper and she was always accepting the new information. She had some problems and she was complaining about the fact that she couldn't speak to anyone about those, but still she was down-to-earth and not boring or nerve-racking at all. As for the male characters, Gavin and Daniel, they surprised me. They were the complete opposites. They were understanding and nice.
What I didn't like that much about the book was how fast paced it was. We read about a year of Lauren's life in just one book. I felt like I was reading reviews of the event's of her life and there were not many scenes, where you could stay and savour the moment.
Bottom line, I liked it. It is written by Lauren's point of view, so you only learn her thoughts, but the book in general is simple. The end was surprising. It has that small twist that makes you want to read the second one immediately.
