Book Review: Ties To The Blood Moon by Robin P. Waldrop



Summary (taken from Goodreads):
Genevieve is a teenage girl who moves in with her aunt in Alaska after the death of her mother. Soon after her arrival she learns the things she was raised to believe only existed in fairytales are in fact a big part of her history. When it gets to be too much she seeks refuge in the arms of her new boyfriend, William, only to find out he's not who she thought he was either.

My Review:
This book started so well and the story was so intriguing that I was  so sad that the last part of the book totally disappointed me. 
I mean, the beginning was great, the mystery of people, the local legends... And the love triangle was kinda cool. 
But when she became a vampire, everything flunked. Besides the fact that she is extremely childish and she screams & stomps her feet until she gets what she wants, the rest of the story was disappointing.
Certain unexpected events were interesting, and I finished the book because I really wanted to know how it was going to end, but probably my rating would've been higher if this last part was less... silly. 
This book had really high potential, but it should have been developed better.


Overall Rating:

  1. I didn't get on well with this book, and I admit that at about half way I skipped to the last chapter cause I really wasn't enjoying it. You're totally right about the main character being childish and the plot being a bit silly, it really didn't do it for me either!
