Hi All,
I just finished Evernight by Claudia Gray.
It's book one in a series and Twilight fans that haven't been satisfied
with other vampire books will love it. Bianca's much like Bella, only this
time, she's the vampire!
http://www.claudiagray.com/
Here's the synopsis...
"At the eerily Gothic Evernight Academy, the other students are sleek,
smart, and almost predatory. Bianca knows she doesn't fit in.
When she meets handsome, brooding Lucas, he warns her to be careful—even
when it comes to caring about him. But the connection between them can't
be denied. Bianca will risk anything to be with Lucas, but dark secrets
are fated to tear them apart . . . and to make Bianca question everything
she's ever believed. "
Sincerely,
Diane Mankowski
