My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Solid 3 stars. Katia is the niece of a powerful vampire family. She is set to attend Crossroads Academy, a melting pot for all influencial vampire teens. Her life should be perfect save for her mysterious and tragic past. Katia is determined to make no friends and stick to her goals of becoming the best fighter possible...with a little help from one of the best fighters in school, Nikolai.
Crossroads was so. blah. There was absolutely nothing special about it. Think highly inferior version of Half Blood (Covenant Series)
The characters were very blase. Nikolai (Nik) is your stereotypical nice hot guy. HE DOESN'T EVEN REALY GET A PERSONALITY. There's also his bitchy jealous best friend(s) Blaine and Jade who envy the attention Nik gives Katia. Snore.
Then there's Shaye, the stereotypical upbeat best friend who is kinda weird. Again, nothing special. Anya, nicks sister, is nice. Yep. That's about all I got for you in terms of cast and character development.
Soooo...why did I read it? Okay, I was bored.And it's not like it was so horrible I couldn't finish it. The book just wasn't particularly unique. It's a quick read and, hey, if you want to spend an afternoon reading a familiar plot, this definitely gets a thumbs up.
