Ever since Anastasija Parker found
out she was a vampire princess, her life has been crazier than normal. No
longer just a witch trying to past her Initiation, as they say been there
failed that. Now she’s the half-vampire- half-witch trying to find a small
amount of balance between the two sides of her life that want to kill each
other. There’s nothing more Ana wants than to be normal and trying out for the
spring musical seems like the perfectly normal thing to do. Thought that’s
about the only normal thing going on in her life right about now. Ana has a lot
of her plate this time around she’s still trying to figure out how to be both
vampire and witch (who are mortal enemies by the way), she’s a little sure how
to handle her things with her sometimes, maybe boyfriend Nikolai (Nik) Kirov,
vampire hunter in training, and rock star. Then there’s Elisa Constantine, her
vampire knight fiancée. And if that wasn’t enough to deal with someone has
stolen the ancient talisman that stands between vampire freedom and slavery to
witches it up to Ana to find it. No one knows what happen to Ana if someone
uses it to make the vampires, slaves to the witches once more.
This book pick up where the last
left off, Ana is still unsure about a lot of things but she knows that she
doesn’t want to be a slave to anyone. If there was a word between love and like
I would totally in it with this book. Ms. Hallaway captures Ana and her world
perfectly making the reader feel like their apart it and not just on the
outside looking in. I could everything and all of the character in my head.
Hallaway makes Ana so easy to relate to, even though most people can’t claim to
be half vampire half witch (who knows what’s out there) we can understand on
some level how Ana is feeling. I find that Ana to be unsure and misunderstood,
I don’t think out of all of the character in the book no ones tries to see things
from Ana’s point of view. No one realizes how hard things are for her and how
well she’s handling things. I like that Ana is trying to learn more about
herself from people on both sides. This was a really good book and a must read
for anyone, who loves great reads.
