I couldn't get past the first 100 pages. And I mean, this shit comes in large print by default. I am not easily offended, but seeing little girls pick up this book in the store makes me want to BEG them not to grow up emulating this relationship model. Never mind good, nothing about this book is acceptable.
I'm not even mentioning the myriad storytelling faux-pas. I've seen this um dialogue and um billboard body language in shitty LJRPs. I'd read the mess of them with humor if only the book had any quirks to laugh about. Every pick-n-choose cliche character is bland, the chemistly is a snooze, and I've seen better self-insert protagonists in Sherlock Holmes fanfiction. PROTIP: If your first-person Mary Sue makes readers want to hit her until she STFUs, you may want to examine the shit you're projecting into her.
OKAY MY PROBLEM IS TWOFOLD AND MOSTLY CONCENTRATED ON THE VAMPIRES.
LIKE, IF THE PROTAGONISTS SUCKS, COULD THE SUPPORTING CHARACTERS BE LESS OF TOOLS?
APPARENTLY NO. ALSO, YOUR NEW VAMPIRE BOYFRIEND IS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR FATHER. god whatever. This is what not having sex before marriage does to you.
BUT IN THE ONE COMING OUT THIS SUMMER THEY GET VAMPIRE MARRIED AND THEORETICALLY HAVE VAMPIRE SEX??? OR SEX BEFORE VAMPIRISM? I DON'T FUCKING KNOW, I COULDN'T EVEN LISTEN TO THE FUCKING THINGS ON AUDIOBOOK BECAUSE WOW, IF YOU THOUGHT JUST READING THE WORDS WAS BAD, JUST IMAGINE LISTENING TO THIS BREATHY 19-YEAR-OLD ACT OUT HER MILDEST FANTASIES.
HOW ARE MORE PEOPLE NOT SPONTANEOUSLY HEMORRHAGING UPON PICKING UP A BOOK???

I think people should start canvassing around the author's house trying to spread the good word of "plot development".
