Luce is a good girl who has ended up in reform school because of the unexplained death of a boy she was last seen with. When she enters this new school she is surprised to make new friends and meet Daniel. He is a sexy and exciting guy who seems to hate her on sight. Luce knows she should stay away from him, especially since he doesn’t seem to like her, but she is drawn to him. Why can’t she just date Cam , the guy who gives her presents and is kind to her? When the strange shadows she has been seeing all her life start to converge over her school and another boy dies, Luce starts to suspect that something beyond her control is happening. Is there anything she can do?
Twilight read alike alert.
How is it like Twilight?
- Pretty girl out of her element in a new school. (check)
- Mysterious, sexy guy that seems to despise aforementioned girl. (check)
- Mysterious attraction to guy to spite the fact he seems to loath girl. (check)
- Epic romance that is never quite fulfilled. (check)
This book has everything you liked about Twilight, but does it better. No vampires here, but there are fantastical creatures and an amazing romantic adventure. The story is more realistic and at the same time full of religious mythology. Don’t roll your eyes over the religious stuff. (That’s what the main character does.) The story won’t beat you over the head with it; there is just enough religious mythology to keep the story going. This is a must read if you like Twilight, the House of Night Series, or Hush, Hush.
