I read an ARC of this book via Booksprout.

I have to say while this book was a quick read it really didn't live up to other books in the genre.

It left me wanting. It seemed to end abruptly and left me with a WTH just happened feeling.

It is a very quick read and the characters are okay but none of them really catch me. Halie was an okay character but boring.

The male characters are described well, but again leaves me wondering.

And the enemy, same as in the first book, simply did nothing for me.

I think with a little work this book could be fleshed out more, but for a teen book its okay. It will keep the attention of a young teen, and they will probably enjoy it. For the Young Adult/Adult area I'd have to say it will leave you wanting, and wondering.

Oh- this is a gooood book!
A little strange, but you will understand when you read it! My feelers were out early on at least!
But such a good book, and I can’t wait to see what happens in the next one!!

I enjoyed the story, Halie is a great character and I love the vampire/werewolf pairing for her parent. There is a good mix of urban fantasy and supernatural hijinks. The story moved at a good pace. I would recommend it

The best part about participating in bookswaps? I quite often forget which books I've put on that wishlist and since I've taken them off all other lists I sometimes even forget about books in general. This was a book I had completely forgotten about until I found it in my latest swap package. However, once I had it and once I reread the blurb I wanted to read it right away. Luckily it's a relatively short book so I could squeeze it in today!

And it was everything I had hoped it would be and even more! The idea of a werewolf father and a vampire mother raising a human daughter is already entertaining enough to fill books. However, the author also added some danger, some drama, some high school romance and some supernatural guys to fall in love with. Once I started reading it was therefore impossible to put the book down and even now I hate it that I don't have the sequels yet.

Even though the parents don't have big parts in the book I really loved how they're raising their daughter and are really trying, their way, to do what's best for her. And what our heroine thinks is best for her and what her parents think is best for her can differ at times, but still. I also can't imagine how heartbreaking it must be for our heroine to know that one day she has to choose whether to become a werewolf, like her dad, or a vampire, like her mom.

I'm however really curious where the plot and romance and everything else will go after that cliffhanger. I have encountered quite some brutal and horrible cliffhangers in my life, but this was absolutely one of them! I mean, we basically knew what would happen in this book, since it's in the title, but I wasn't prepared to get no answers at all yet on "and what happens then?". We know the how, we don't know the "and what's next"?

I can't wait to get paid again so I can get myself the sequels!
