I like that she was nice, but not too nice - had a survivalist streak that made sense given her life.

I loved Allie, she was so awesome. Also, the world in this book really sucked me in, I loved how dark and dangerous it was.

Mostly it's because I don't read a ton of fairy books, but Jenny at Supernatural Snark assures me the fae in this book are excellent. The Immortal Rules seems to be a different spin on vampires and a book that I would like. I really enjoy the post-apocalyptic vampire novels and to be honest I love when everyone knows about vampires. I love seeing the way the interact with society. I'm seriously pumped after this review to pick up The Immortal Rules. I guess I may finally read a Julie Kagawa novel! :)Jen (@ Jens Book Closet)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02339586413882184139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014295473803664042.post-13301168110661503082012-04-10T11:16:45.807-04:002012-04-10T11:16:45.807-04:00YES!

I'm a vampire lover so I was expecting great things from this book and it far exceeded them, I just adored Allie and the entire cast of characters. And that ending? I kept hoping more pages would magically appear if I stared at the last page long enough, willing them into being:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014295473803664042.post-61708570419386483392012-04-10T10:32:37.401-04:002012-04-10T10:32:37.401-04:00I'm so vamped-out that I don't wanna read ...I'm so vamped-out that I don't wanna read this book but it sounds terrific and I'm tempted!<br /><br />Is it a very long book? because if it's not I'll just bite the bullet and just read it - I never read the Iron Fey series so I'm totally trusting you when it's says the author is awesome.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014295473803664042.post-54068704771875616482012-04-10T09:34:51.032-04:002012-04-10T09:34:51.032-04:00Great review.
