This book takes place in present time in Manhattan,New York, but
it starts off at a waiting line for a nightclub, The Bank. The first main character is Schuyler Van Alen, a 15-year-old girl who doesn’t have expensive clothes, pretty, lives with her grandmother, has blue veins that appear on her arms, and has a mom that is in a coma. The second main character is Madeleine “Mimi” Force, a 16-year-old rich girl that has a twin brother named Benjamin “Jack” Force and is a popular girl at school. The third main character is Bliss Llewellyn, a girl who is apart of Mimi’s crew and was originally from Dallas, Texas. The first main event is when all three of the girls went to a meeting and found out that they are vampires, but Mimi and Jack been knew that they are vampires themselves. The second main event is when Schuyler was walking back home from a photoshoot that Bliss and herself was hired for, a horrific, mysterious figure came out of the shadows and attacked Schuyler. After that, Schuyler, Bliss, and Oliver Hazard-Perry, Schuyler’s best friend and conduit, does research on these creatures using the word ‘croatan’, Jack’s research, Schuyler’s grandmother’s knowledge on it, and a library.
I like that this book, because it catches my attention towards the different characters in different situations. It also can put imagination in your head when it comes to the details that it has. My disliking for this book is that while reading it, I got confused on which character is going to be the main one for a chapter or half of the chapter. It also kinda have gotten boring in one part, but still became a good book. The lesson is that I’ve learned is that we can follow your own destiny and do whatever you can to be a hero.
