A slightly new spin on the vampire romance tale--the main character is a young professional living in NYC, with a love life that has stalled, partly because of her peculiar ability to see how and when people will die. Meg Cabot's story is diverting and absorbing, and her sense of humor is as apparent here as in her (many many) other books. The story is self-contained and mostly resolved, although the characters have clearly been set up to enjoy adventures in future books--and the first sequel is out this summer.
