Natalie Rockefeller bellabass6f0d — I would give this 3 1/2 stars if I knew how to add the extra half. I absolutely LOVED the first half of this book and was completely let down by the second half. There are a lot of similarities between this book and the 'Twilight' saga - both the good and the bad parts. The question I have to ask, of both heroines however, is why these women think they can be bullheaded and impulsive when they are dealing with vampires! Maybe they need to pick up an old copy of Salem's Lot. THE GOOD: The historical aspects covered in this book (Harkness is a history professor) really add a certain depth to the story and to the vampire character. Harkenss also has a wine blog, and I loved that she made her vampire a wine connoiseur. The beginning of the story is very believable and I liked toying with the idea that vampires, witches and daemons exist among us. THE BAD: Rather than escalate the love story with more conflict, Harkness's heroine makes rash and stupid decisions that not only jeopardizes her relationship, but her life, as well. At times the narrative read more like a text book than a great piece of fiction and I felt teased with a lack of descriptions on certain things and overdone descriptions on others. I felt that there was a lot of narrative that was unnecessary. It did not advance the plot and became almost tedious at times; I did not need to know every time the heroine took a nap or indulged in a cup of tea. THE UGLY: Some of the scientific explanation made me feel like I was back in a biology lecture (yawn!). The second half of the story just collapsed into cliches and easy explanations. I don't know if I'll be along for book two of the trilogy.
