ReVamped
by Ada Adams
I guess I need to admit this right now. I have been telling myself that I am not a huge fan of vampire books, because they are not all done well and the concept is overdone- but I can't lie to myself, or you guys, anymore. I really like vampire books! Yes, some of them are not executed well, but the good ones- I really like them! And this is one of the good ones.
It kind of reminded me of the YA version of True Blood. Vampires had come out to the world and people were fascinated with them. They even have a sort of drug made from vamp blood. But I also really liked that some of the small towns had vampire protectors. That made them seem more human- protecting and watching over the town.
The guys in this book confused me a little. I couldn't really get a hold on either of them until pretty late in the book. I liked both of them well enough. I know that by the end, I like Sebastian more. I wouldn't really call ReVamped a love triangle because romance was not really the focus at all. There were just two guys in the story that played pretty big roles. Now I think a love triangle might pop up in the next book. In fact, I would be shocked if it didn't but ReVamped kind of just set the stage for it.
Dawn is a cool girl. I liked that she was all badass but still kind of shy. And the mystery surrounding her was pretty neat too. I kept trying to guess what it was about her birth that was different, but I didn't even come close to getting it right! I love that! I love that reVamped kept me guessing and then wasn't predictable at all. I would recommend this book to anyone that liked True Blood (now this is def. the YA version, so it will be different in some regards) or anyone that appreciates a good vampire book.
