There were a few things very off for me with this book. The timing is the biggest. I wanted more time between this book and the one before it to really see the change in the town. It felt like cheating that all of this great stuff happened on only a few short days. The pacing I the novel reminded me of the beginning of the series where there was random and very fast action with some very slow bits mixed in. I really didn't like the resolution of Claire and Shane's relationship. That moved way too fast for me. Let them be young and In love and not have to have a lifetime commitment. While I enjoyed this series it is not my favorite. I wanted this lol sat novel to be much better than it was. I didn't like the fact that Claire helped the vampires gain control again and I hated the idea of Fallon and a cure. There were better stories that could have been told for the finale.
