Even though she knows that it is forbidden to look at the sin-eater, at her Grandmother's funeral, she catches a glimpse of the sin-eater. However, either by the curiosity of little girls or a more powerful force, she decides to find the sin-eater to help her get rid of her sin. Will she be able to find what she seeks? And, will the sin-eater be able to help her? Or, will everyone be saved from this encounter?

Been over two months since I have posted this, but I'll try to make a review that is longer than a sentence. >.<

After reading Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers, I decided to read another one of her books to see if I would like it. Well, I kind of like it and I kind of don't. There is more religion down your throat than Redeeming Love, but not so much that you want to stop reading it.

At first, this book kind of starts slow, but after Cadi and some people go find the sin-eater it gets a little bit more exciting. The book has a lot of details almost like her other book that I have read, and the character development is also very good. Also, in the books I have read so far from her has a sense of historical detail in them, which is also very interesting -- especially this one since I had never heard about it until I read the book.

Go read the book. It's not as interesting as Redeeming Love, but it is still well written. :)

Thomas C. Flood is turned into a vampire by his vampire girlfriend, Jody, and now they have to work through new issues. Will they be able to deal with Thomas' transformation, vampire killers, a call girl named Blue, Jody's sire, and a teenage goth minion?

Been over 2 months since I have read this, but oh well, I'll try to make the review more than a couple of sentences. I didn't know this book was a sequel to another book, but I really don't want to read the first one seeing that this one was urgh. >.<

Well, the title kind of gives you a preview of how the book will be, because in my opinion, the book is badly written. The chapters are very fast paced and leave a lot of details out of it, and some parts I wouldn't even consider "chapters".

This book is definitely not worth reading. I like vampire books, but I like there to be actually be a plot and a lot more details in my books. >.>

Some people think that Twilight is the worst vampire book, but it's not, it's this book. ^^;
