Summary: GREAT BOOK!! COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN
Review: I LOVED THIS BOOK! IT WAS SO MUCH DIFFERENT THAN THE BOOKS THAT I USUALLY READ. I'M INTO THE HORROR STUFF BY R.L. STINE. EVEN THOUGH IT HAD A LITTLE BIT OF HORROR IT WAS A LOVE STORY. IT'S A GREAT BOOK.

Summary: the BEST book I've read this year!
Review: During this '98 boring summer, I picked up Blood and Chocolate after just looking at the beautiful cover. I could not put this book down!! I took it everywhere with me, I even read it as my friend blabbed away on the telephone with me. The language, feelings, and characters seemed remarkably real. Vivian is great, I could totally identify with her. Her boyfriend and Kelly {the boyfriend stealer} got on my nerves, but that's good though. I hope the author will write a sequel to this book. Hey, how bout a movie??

Summary: Romance and horror, love and jealousy, human and werewolf
Review: I absolutely loved this book!!! A review that said "Annette Curtis Klause does for werewolves what Anne Rice did for vampires" is what pushed me to buy this book and I never regretted it. I finished it the first night I bought it, it is definitely a page turner. Blood and Chocolate is a story about Vivian, a young werewolf, and her struggles on her journey to womanhood. She is a strong character with many conflicting emotions, and she is enough of a human for us to be able to relate to her. She falls in love with Aiden, a forbidden "meat boy" but it can never be between them. Her animal instincts are too strong for her to ignore. Amidst the trials of her leaderless pack, trying to lead a normal life, the pulls of the moon, and finding her identity, Vivian realizes where she belongs and follows her heart. This is a truly compelling story of love, anxiety, and every other screwed up emotion a teenage werewolf could possibly experience. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves the way Anne Rice writes.

Summary: A decidedly mature YA novel.
Review: The suspenseful, beautifully written and often erotic story of a sixteen year-old werewolf girl's love for a human boy who may be her soulmate, putting her entire pack at risk of discovery. This is the best book about lycanthropy and adolescence since Melanie Tem's 'Wilding.' (Okay, maybe there aren't too many books like that at all, but in any case, I loved it.)

Summary: Too mild to be suspenseful
Review: The relationship between Vivian and Aiden was not as intense as it could be. Nor was the break-up. I didn't like the fact that the author turned her into a jealous girl pining after a boy who she knew she could never have. Vivian was portrayed like she was more human than wolf

Summary: LOVED IT!
Review: This was one of the best books that I have ever read. I could really relate to how Vivian was feeling and how she saw the world. I love how the pack and the people in this book were described and it really sucked me into the story. I couldn't put the book down and the ending was so beautiful it gave me chills! I was really sad when I had finished the book. It left me thirsting for more!

Summary: A brillant book...
Review: Just like Klause's first novel THE SILVER KISS, BLOOD AND CHOCOLATE is a brillant, page-turner. Using a main character, whom you feel is almost real, werewolf lore, and a well-developed plot Annette Curtis Klause makes a fantasic book that you just can't put down. The story is brimming with, of course, werewolves, betrayl, some twisted humor and forbidden romance. This book is a must-read!!!

Summary: Loved it! Loved it! Loved it!
Review: Vivian is a one butt kicking teenage werewolf, who has to deal with the problems of her pack and Aiden, a human boy she has fallen in love with. The book captures you from the first page and won't lent you put it down til the end.

Summary: scarier, sexier, stronger, and "sassier"
Review: Much like the author's first book, The Silver Kiss (which was perhaps one of the best first YA novels ever published), Blood and Chocolate contains that same exciting mix of romance, teen angst and longing, and horror. But this title is even scarier, sexier, stronger, and "sassier" than The Silver Kiss. There are two stories here: both revolve around Vivian, a teen girl werewolf. In the first, Vivian falls in love with a boy at her school, Aiden, and wants to reveal her true self, her secret self, her wolf self to him. Like most other teens, Viv is struggling with her identity, hers complicated by human passion conflicting with animal instinct. In the second story, Vivian's family/pack is in turmoil as they relocate and choose new leaders. Within the family are rivals, allies, and enemies, none of whom Vivian has any real connection than blood. Her relationship with her mother is complicated by Viv's conflicting emotions of compassion and actions, like dating Aiden, of defiance. The two stories co
