Some Girls Bite: Chicagoland Vampires #1 – Chloe Neill

Sure, the life of a graduate student wasn’t exactly glamorous, but it was Merit’s. She was doing fine until a rogue vampire attacked her. But he only got a sip before he was scared away by another bloodsucker and this one decided the best way to save her life was to make her the walking undead.

Turns out her savior was the master vampire of Cadogan House. Now she’s traded sweating over her thesis for learning to fit in at a Hyde Park mansion full of vamps loyal to Ethan “Lord o’ the Manor” Sullivan. Of course, as a tall, green-eyed, four-hundred- year-old vampire, he has centuries’ worth of charm, but unfortunately he expects her gratitude and servitude. But an inconvenient sunlight allergy and Ethan’s attitude are the least of her concerns. Someone’s still out to get her. Her initiation into Chicago’s nightlife may be the first skirmish in a war and there will be blood.

Min mening:

Jeg likte denne boka utrolig godt. Det er enkelt å kjenne seg igjen i frustrasjonen Merit føler over å ha blitt vampyr uten å få velge selv, og hvordan hun sakte men sikkert venner seg til tanken på å leve som bloddrikkende, sol-allergisk vampyr for all evighet. Handlingen er spennende, og slutten kom veldig overraskende på meg. Jeg synes vanligvis at den første boka i en ny serie blir litt treg, siden mye av boka brukes til å forklare settingen, men det syntes jeg ikke med denne. Jeg gleder meg allerede til å plukke opp resten av bøkene i serien neste gang jeg er innom biblioteket. 4/5
