About this deal

Now a fraternity is tossing its yearly Dead Girls’ Dance and the surprise here is Claire and her similarly outcast closest friend named Eve, happen to be invited. Once they discover why, all nightmare will probably bust unfastened. Since this time both living and the dead are arriving out and everyone’s starving for blood. Claire’s three roommates are cool and, again, you might not believe this but, one of them is a GIRL and she’s still cool. Happier day! One of the things I enjoy the most about this series is all the snappy dialogue among the friends, their rude comments and gestures to each other ring very true as the way longime friends interact.

The readers question the future of Claire and Shane’s relationship, as well as the stability of Eve and Michael’s. Claire’s progress with her parents and her turning into a vampire slayer are mentioned as positive points. Finally, the reviewer notes Shane’s character growth and newfound ability to restrain himself in dangerous situations. 9. Ghost Townfor Claire in general, and the first two chapters in particular. We are told from the beginning that she is OMGubersmart. We are told that she finished highschool in two years (which, by the way, means a lot of summer classes if her school is anything like mine) and that Ivy League colleges were practically begging at her feet. Her parents- including her dad, who she later thinks of in a way that convinced me he's very focused on her academics- wouldn't let her go there because she was 'too young'. And this is where I interject: "NO SHIT SHE'S TOO YOUNG. SHE CAN STAY IN HIGHSCHOOL AND TAKE AP CLASSES AND GET COLLEGE CREDIT FOR TWO MORE YEARS AND THEN ENROLL AS A FRIGGIN' JUNIOR OR SOMETHING. And because she is OMGubersmart, she'll see this financially wise option/way to placate the 'rents, right? Umm... actually, not right. Not right at all. Instead, her parents ignore the fact that prestigious colleges will probably do whatever they ask to get their daughter there, up to and including any special supervision they might want to feel she's safe, and decide to enroll her in the idiotically named Texas Prarie University. There, instead of being, say, in some sort of small Honors-only housing complex, she's on the top floor in the worst rooms of the worst dorms. The writing was easy to follow and didn't lead you astray. It keeps you in suspense and the story line flows so you get pulled into it. I just love the characters, even the secondary characters. Claire is awesome but I have to say, her two male roommates keep your toes warm. It’s a nice story, with a crew of likable, down to earth characters, who were being pushed through one deadly situation after another. The troubles which the residents in the Glass House had gotten themselves into are too many that it is almost humorous (in a good way). And I really like how the author wrote her vampires, they were brutal, cunning and at some point very cold blooded, but their characters were built that way with reasons, and you soon can tell the truly evil ones from the rest. The vampires aren’t all bad but they are not humans’ harmless best friends either. I think it’s what made Rachel Caine’s novels realistic The book has a slightly juvenile tone, which is ironic since the main character--a brainiac who is sixteen years old and in college--spends much of the book insisting that she's not a little kid. I feel like a lot of the events weren't really thought out and were there to move the story along without really considering the repercussions. It's kind of like how, in Harry Potter, Harry always managed to get away scot-free--and sometimes even with a congratulatory pat on the head--in spite of all the times he ignored rules or authority to save the world/his friends/stuff. Except that this book doesn't even go that far. Eventually, I kind of just gave up all hope for at least some bit of realism. Secondly the character's. How many books have i read and not liked the main character?- To many, but there are also ones i hate. But in all honesty, Claire is a likable character. They all are really. Sure, she can be stupid at times, but that's just who she is, and it is that, that makes her so realistic and interesting character.

While Morganville, Texas, is often a troubled town, Claire Danvers and her friends are looking forward to coming home. But the Morganville they return to isn’t the one they know; it’s become a different place—a deadly one… Morganville is a small town filled with unusual characters - when the sun goes down, the bad come out. In Morganville, there is an evil that lurks in the darkest shadows - one that will spill out into the bright light of day. Kim. I don't like Kim. Kim can go jump off a bridge, or better yet, feed her to Myrnin. Gah! She threatened the dynamic of the Glass House and I was not liking that at all. Also wasn't feeling Ada's attitude problem.

For example: try to imagine the first episode of the X-files with a twenty-two-year-old, gum snapping, blonde in five inch heels and a tiny tank top instead of the lovely Gillian Anderson in the role of Scully. Most of us would stop watching there, because we can't suspend our disbelief far enough to wrap our minds around the idea of that woman as a doctor/FBI agent. From the writer of the well-known Weather Warden series arrives the very first book of an thrilling new series, mounted in Morganville city of Texas, where we will be strongly advised to avert being out after dark.

Monica Morrell is a beautiful, yet cruel, psychopathic college student who is Claire's initial antagonist in the series. Her father (and then later her brother, Richard) is the human mayor of the secretly vampire-controlled town. She hates Claire because Claire made her look stupid after correcting her about China's involvement in World War Two. A few years before the series she had a crush on Shane and he rejected her, it is implied that she then burned down his house, which killed his sister, or at least that is what everyone believes while she profusely denies doing so. Nearly every time Monica has an encounter with Claire, she is mean to her. However, throughout the series, Claire and Monica develop a kind of truce, as Monica develops a bit of respect for Claire because of her braveness and courage; however, most of the time Monica does not show this. Am I the only one that's thinking why this hasn't become a TV series already? Just a thought. It can happily join the ranks with TVD, but that's my opinion.

I was immediately attracted by this book. Somehow, I feel connected to the protagonist, Claire Danvers because of her geeky (and a little bit nerdy) style. I'd also like to compliment the cover - it's really eye-catching I'm giving this one three stars total. You can see that it's actually more of a 2.5, but I would definitely give the combo book a three instead of a 2 so there you have it. Review of each book listed. Drama Queen's Last Dance" in Eternal: More Love Stories with Bite and Midnight Bites (2016, ISBN 978-1101989784)

In “Fade Out,” Claire’s life gets a little bit more crazy… if that’s even possible. Caine has a wild imagination that she has translated into text for all to enjoy. The books are addictive and fast reads — making it easy to read one novel in a sitting. For those who enjoy vampire drama, this is at the top of the list. Caine breaks through the clutter of paranormal young adult novels by creating a unique series that is enjoyable for teens and adults.In "Kiss of Death" Claire and her friends are going on a trip outside of Morganville to Dallas. Their scope is to record Michale's CD but think they start complicating from the moment they leave town with Oliver in the car. Things become even worse when they get in Texas waiting for Oliver to resolve some of his problems. They realized that this was not a town for them and Michale has not the power over human with his words that he use to have in Morganville. Dead Man Stalking" in Immortal: Love Stories With Bite and Vampires: The Recent Undead and Midnight Bites (2016, ISBN 978-1101989784) For Claire Danvers, high school was hell, but college may be murder. It was bad enough that she got on the wrong side of Monica, the meanest of the school's mean girls, but now she has got three new roommates, who all have secrets of their own. And the biggest secret of all is not really a secret, except from Claire: Morganville is run by vampires, and they are hungry for fresh blood.
