A complex read for me, I loved the romance in it (James & Sophie), and the friendship (Violet & Sophie). But I didn't really liked the hole idea.. And the ending annoyed me evr so slightly, I mean was I the only one wondering if the fact that she was different really meant she was the girl ? And parts of the storyline were --in my opinion-- tres predictable. Like I thought the fact that she would be the girl with the star-shaped birth-mark (or, I guess... Freckles?) was, yeah, predictable; especially when it took so long for her to strip down to her bikini.. A little obvious maybe? Maybe it was just me, but the only parts I found appealing were James, Violet.. .. And the whale pyjamas (: xxx Over and out, T x “Not another vampire book!” was the first thing I thought of when I heard about Vampire Crush, but, a coworker suggested it and I decided to go out on a limb and read it. I absolutely enjoyed it! A.M. Robinson makes you cringe and laugh out loud. Sophie McGee is a wonderful protagonist. She’s funny, strong, with a mind of her own and a go-get-em attitude that is refreshing in paranormal protagonists. When her childhood friend and tormentor, James Hallowell, moves back into the neighbourhood with a few suspicious looking characters, Sophie is the only one not taken by their charm and determined to get to the bottom of their creepiness. I absolutely enjoyed this story, it’s perfectly paced, filled with moments of laughter and touched with just enough romance to make you swoon but not puke. And, there is no freaky love triangle! Let us rejoice! A.M. Robinson’s writing style sucks you into the story and keeps you turning the pages, I almost felt like I was there witnessing everything through Sophie’s eyes. Vampire Crush is a surprisingly refreshing addition to the dreary look-a-likes on the YA Paranormal bookshelf. I received my copy of Vampire Crush through Goodreads First Reads giveaways. Sophie McGee is ready to start the new school year, she is determined to be the Editor-in-Chief of the school paper and thinks she has a great shot at it with her investigative skills. Her teacher tasks Sophie and her Editor in Chief rival with interviewing the new kids at school, and a strange bunch they are. The new students are as odd as their names, and before long Sophie has realized that there is something off about them. Vlad especially seems to get whatever he wants from whomever he wants. The foursome don't keep up their charade of being new high school students very well, and Sophie puts her investigative skills to work to find out why they're really there. Another mystery is that the house next door that has been empty for awhile, is now reoccupied. Sophie's friend James who used to live there has returned, but alone after his parents died, and he doesn't want anyone to know he's back. Predictably that doesn't last for long. When Vlad starts dating Sophie's sister Caroline, it becomes even more important to find out what she can. Something is just not right about him, and she doesn't want Caroline to get hurt. In the meantime Sophie has inadvertently made friends with another of the new students, Violet, who speaks, acts and dresses old-fashioned. She's become fascinated by teen magazine surveys and advice on boys, as she has someone she's in love with, but can't keep. So many things to find out, what happened to James while he was gone, how is he connected with the new kids at school, and why are they really there? This was a cute read, but not anything that will stick out for me so I gave it a 3/5. I liked Sophie, James and Violet the most, Vlad the least, he was super annoying in my opinion. I prefer likable bad guys I guess. It's possible that it was just targeted towards a younger age group than I really enjoy and that I was expecting too much from it compared to all of the other teen vampire fiction I've read that is more complex and intense. Sophie is written with a fun sarcastic but light style, and I did enjoy it. I think as a debut this was good. The back of my copy suggests an age group of 12 and up, and recommends it to fans of Vampire Kisses and the Vladimir Tod series, with which I would have to agree.
Sixteen-year-old journalist Sophie McGee's junior year is filled with unexpected drama--and romance--when she discovers that her new classmates are hiding a dark secret, while the "boy next door" from her childhood re-enters her life. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
