Super strong start, great writing, I think it just needed a bit of fine tuning in the last 25%. The information was provided all at once. Overall I'll definitely be looking out for more from this author.

So, at this point I can confidently say I love Octavia Butler's writing style. A lot. No matter how strange the plot seems to me I am hooked. This book was a journey that I loved taking and I was into it really quickly. Star only knocked off because I think the ending didn't tie up enough for me but this is true for every book I have read by this author so at this point you'd think I'd be used to it but I'm not.

A paranormal/sci fi story about a vampire with amnesia. Definitely worth picking up.

Characters did not pull me in, plot all over the place and underdeveloped. Very unlike Isabel Allende

Honestly 4.5 stars rounded up just because this was so entertaining and had the perfect amount of plot twists.

I could NOT stop reading this. There are a LOT of POV switches especially in the beginning which i found hard to follow, the book was a bit darker than I expected (which wasn't necessarily a a bad thing), but Jenna's constant back and forth on her conclusions annoyed me a lot by the end.

Still very good and very entertaining read.

This was so perfectly creepy. I was listening to the audiobook at work and literally JUMPED when someone came up to me to ask me a question. This was hard to read at times but very well done and I'm excited to dive into Stephen King a bit more.
