This next book is one of those that I was exposed to because of meeting the author at Polaris.
Solange Drake is not looking forward to her sixteenth birthday. Unlike most of her friends, she is not going to have a birthday party nor is she going to get a car. Being the child of an ancient Vampire family, Solange has her transformation into a vampire to look forward to. And given that she is the first girl to be a vampire born rather than a vampire made, Solange is also apparently the fulfilment of ancient prophecy. Sometimes a girl can’t catch a break
This teen vampire romance could have been a pale imitation of Twilight or one of the tens of others that are out there. Instead it is a nice deviation in the vampire mythos, filled with humour and strong female characters, for once. Author Alexandra Harvey has crafted a tale that will satisfy all but the most jaded vampire fan. Accessible for readers as young as Grade 8.
