Plus it just has such a pretty cover!<br /><br />And, I'm pretty sure you didn't actually mean to write "Julie Kagawa's The Coldest Girl in Coldtown" and instead meant The Immortal Rules, but it had me far more confused than it should have at first!

Sure they're about witches but the setting of an alternate universe gives it a fresh take. I haven't touched any vampire books in a while but this might just be worth the try. <br /><br />Great review!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00107816571044347474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-14925629264204116372013-09-18T00:52:45.917-05:002013-09-18T00:52:45.917-05:00I have become so burnt out on "template"...I have become so burnt out on "template" based stories lately and this one sounds like a perfect one to get out of that funk - sounds much more creative than others I've run across lately.

I know this book seems to have split opinions, but I do love how it goes back to the old vamp books before they became swoony love interests.

Sign me up for spending some quality time with Gavriel. He sounds fascinating:) Too bad on the ending though, that has me a little wary of this book. It's definitely going to be one of those cases where I flip to the back first. I CAN'T HELP IT!<br /><br />Lovely review:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-71060851275421955862013-09-17T06:57:22.637-05:002013-09-17T06:57:22.637-05:00I loved that this one wasn't overly romance-y,...I loved that this one wasn't overly romance-y, though there was a hint in there.
