Review title: Not Worth Your Time
Product review: The title hooked me; I thought it would be something interesting and new. The idea of playing with standard vampire concepts intrigued me and, if nothing else, should have been intersting. I started this book, got bored and put it down, started it again, got bored, and finally made it through on the third attempt. Every time, I kept thinking "this can't get worse" and every time it did. That was actually the worst part: I wanted it to be good.I was rooting for Malice to kill him within the first fifty pages.The writing itself is awful. Setting and even metaphores rely on name recognition, not solid description. Even if the reader excuses that, the plot is so twisted that it's not believable. Some coincidence is acceptable, but it can't carry a 334 page novel. A story needs more than just an interesting idea to be good, a concept that was driven home by reading this book.
