I was sold on this book because of the name that was attached to the first quote. “This one’s a killer” — Erica T. Wurth. Wurth is the author of one of my favorite books of last year, White Horse. Just getting her approval made me even more excited.n

This book was an interesting and refreshing take on the overdone vampire genre. What made this work for me was a few things. First, I loved that we all know what a vampire is but that’s not what they were called here, they were called Sara. Not much was explained since we all know. I loved that. Second, I felt that the Sara’s were not the focal point. Third, I really liked the main character Mia and her struggles from both a child and an adult. The relationships or lack of relationships is the star in this novel.

Mia’s mom is turned into a Sara when she was young which caused Mia’s life to change drastically. They moved and kept to themselves never forging any relationships. Mia finally forms a bond with someone and it sets a lot of events in motion.

I was shocked at a lot of parts of this book. I was always guessing what I thought would happen and was wrong almost every time, I love when that happens. I loved how the book ended and I almost hope this will be a series. I would love to see Mia again and see what she is ready to do.

Final Score: 5/5
