    What I loved most about Die For Me is that I felt that I've never read anything like it before. It was completely original and kept me aching for more information, more action, and definitely more romance.

    And the way that the final conflict goes down at the end of the book was, to me at least, totally and utterly disappointing. Everything I hope *not* to see in a paranormal book marketed to teenage girls.

    I read while I cooked dinner, while I switched the laundry, if I could have read in the shower I would have.

    For the most part Kate has a good sense of who she is...until she meets Vincent and begins to move towards a character who has to have a boy to make her life worth living, such as this quote demonstrates:

    So I said with a bit of a laugh so I wouldn’t sound too ridiculous–”It’s called Die For Me.” She kind of gave me a look–it said, that’s beneath you.

    But after them, I got over the insta-love, the “Sure, I will quickly and easily overlook the fact that you are DANGEROUS and kinda DEAD” thing. So, you know, that didn’t do much for me here.

    Die For Me was vibrantly romantic and able to transport me into the European world of art history and museums; a place where the undead are beautiful creatures, risking their lives to save others.
