Reseñas de la Crítica

“A mesmerizing first novel … with lyrical writing.” ( Kirkus Reviews)

"Strangely persuasive...at once a grisly and graphic tale of monstrous death and a sweet and compelling story of love." ( Entertainment Weekly)

A great young adult read!

I read this as a teen and now again @ 40. Not the same feeling but it is a great book and still lets me dream in the world of vampires. This is a good story about a lonely girl and a lonely vampire boy that seems to need each other and help them through difficult times.

Interesting, subtle, romantic & holistically emotional

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I’m not much of a reader but I kept being enthralled by the story. The short length (to me) helped. I liked the characters & I felt the performer’s voices made them feel even realer to me. I liked how the author described what happened to the characters, what they did & how they felt. Depicting their thought processes appealed to this old “over-thinker.” In my view, older kids & adults can enjoy it. It depicts romance & relationships & I like how it shows them. I think any relationship can add to or replace something in life. But it’s still up to the character to choose & the process may be frightening, wonderful, uncertain, deceitful, sensual, truthful; many things…The author showed showed several facets relationships are based on. I thought the short stories she added later (this edition has ‘em; 2009 was the year I believe they were both finally in) were definitely necessary. I liked it more than I thought I would.

I remembered reading many many years ago and thought I'd give it a listen, don't regret a single second!
