Reviews for The Vow
7 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Young adult vampire mystery/mild romance. An easy read, with some twists and turns to the plot to liven things up.The good: I actually couldn't guess the ending to this one. The mystery stayed a mystery, with a lot of blind alleys along the way.The not-so-good: Bland characters. Not much to make this book stand out from the pack.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Claire returns from college to find her parents murdered and her brother JJ missing. This is an era when 'The Vow" has been implemented to keep the peace between humans and vampires, so it is surprising that the parents are drained of their blood and have vampire bite marks all over them. Claire decides to solve the murder herself and find her brother so she volunteers at a clinic that feeds blood to vampires to see what she can find out.She bumbles around and makes a lot of mistakes while not seeming to learn from them. She acquires a vampire boyfriend, Connor, who tries with only some success to help her and keep her from even more mishaps.While using most of the normal vampire characteristics, none of the vampires had the appeal that you usually find, including Connor. There was never much character development on anyone. The plot could have been better. There were a lot of dead ends that didn't make much sense, but maybe YA readers don't mind that.While I read a lot of YA paranormal, I'm not really in the target audience. So I found this just okay. I received a couple from NetGalley and am giving an honest review.
