The Good Stuff Good ending to the story - can't go any further on this point as it would be to spoilerish - but it worked for me - not what I wanted, but I could see how it could come about Lots of Meg Cabot humour which I adore. Some of her dialogue makes me LMAO Quite a significant improvement in the maturity of the characters, which was a major complaint from most readers of Insatiable. It actually felt more like an adult novel than a young adult story Meena is a likeable character and you feel yourself routing for her. She's just so adorable and has a good strength of character Cabot's writing style is enjoyable to read, so even when you don't love the story, you still want to keep reading Alaric is an intriguing character and would have liked more of his back story Also cannot mention why I loved Lucien as this would give away the ending -- but nice one Lucien As always she drops some fun pop culture references and the names of the characters are deligtful for any fan of Dracula. The Not So Good Stuff Not enough of Cabot's trademark humour, felt she went a little too dark considering the first book in the series Actually a little dull in parts Was a little disappointed as I expected much better from Cabot who is one of my favorite writers. The story felt a little rushed and the characters actions didn't always ring true for me. Also not enough development of the character of Alaric. He had huge potential but he kinda felt a little flat and I can see why others were disappointed in the ending Secondary characters were not developed enough for my taste, again they had potential, but its like Cabot lost interest in the story Favorite Quotes/Passages "I didn't know you were stopping by," he said. "Sharp-looking tux there, dude. Very Daniel Craig in Casino Royale." "Well, I have to be honest with you," she said, pulling her wrist from his grasp. " The only reason I'm wearing this necklace is because members of your species keep trying to bite me. So if you don't mind, I'm going to keep it." "She lifted her head from the door and whipped it around to face Meena - completely ignoring Jon - letting out a hiss that revealed a set of blood-soaked fangs. Clearly dental hygiene was no longer a priority in the Delmonico household." Who Should/Shouldn't Read If you read Insatiable I know you will want to read this just to get a closing to the story If you are a huge fan of Cabot you might be a tad disappointed 3.25 Dewey's I received this from William Morrow in exchange for an honest

Well this could have been better I am willing to admit that. However it ended the way it should have in my opinion. I'm sure Cabot had a tough one on her hands trying to end this series considering she doesn't usually dabble in to the Vampire category but it was a good ending. However, I didn't feel the emotions in this one like I did the last. I didn't feel the emotions going on between the characters as I did in the first. Although Aleric was one I could really see right through because he is pretty simple yet awesome. I am glad I read this and found out how it all ended.
