This book seemed to have a lot of potential. I've read more than my fair share of vampire novels, but this one seemed to have a new concept. I really thought the idea of an awkward teen vampire could turn into a really fun read. Sadly however, this book fell short for me. The beginning was quirky and funny. It really set up a cute coming-of-age story. Jane talked about what vampire myths were true and false, about her family. Then, as I read further the plot started feeling kind of disjointed. It had good moments throughout, but the overall conflicts felt forced. I respect that the author tried to be surprise the reader but the twists just felt unnatural. There is a love triangle just kind of thrown in, but it didn't really ever develop. I'm not sure if I would pass by this book completely, though. Although I didn't love it, I didn't feel like it wasted my time. It was a pretty light read. I think it would be good for the beach or a book report. So, if you're looking for a quick vampire read, this might be worth a try. But buyer beware: it's no Twilight.
