Summary: Getting Better
Review: Of her three books, this is the best thus far. Sure, it isn't too original, but the plot was coherent and engaging. Despite its flaws, I couldn't put it down.

Summary: could have been better
Review: The main thing that annoyed me about Atwater-Rhodes' latest book is that she resolved it, once again, with the main character's transformation into a vampire. She could have perhaps come up with a better solution, although maybe her whole point is to show that vampirism is inevitable. I think that with a little pre-plotting (not too much, as she of course doesn't want to know what happens before her book is finished) she could stop writing herself into these little messes where the only solution is transformation. I mean, it's getting a little old. Also, her characters were a bit too one-dimensional, and I didn't feel sympathetic towards any one of them, except perhaps Nissa, who seemed to be a little helpless for a vampire.However, I did like the book in other respects, excepting that she seemed to use none of the beautiful language that she did in her first book. Other than that, it was a decent story, with characters you don't like but are interesting anyway, and a somewhat predictable plot that nevertheless held my attention for most of the book. The beginning was a bit slow, however.

Summary: FANTASTIC!!
Review: This book is ABSOLUTELY fabulous! I couldn't put it down. I read it cover to cover in one sitting. If you like romance (but nothing too mushy), and suspense then you should buy this book immediately. Way to go Amelia!! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Summary: Great Book holds u till the end
Review: This story like Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is soo great. I was held in it till the end. And then I was so upset because it was over. I wanted there to be one more page and then another page after that, I didnt want for it to end. I love books like that about teens and how well they can relate to the rest of us wanting to fit in. Be normal. I like the way that she doesnt say that there is a rightand a wrong. That there is a inbetween. Thats somthing that you dont see in alot of books these days. I would highly recomend it.

Summary: Great Book:Great New Auther
Review: I thought this book was really good. It's not like a lot of other books with witches and vampires. Her writing moves quickly, and makes you want to turn to the next page. I've read tons of books, from many different authers. And I have to say: Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is one of the best. I can't wait for her next book to come out.

Summary: mourn...
Review: That is what I am doing- mourning for all the trees cut down to create the paper to hold this piece of tripe work. This plot went no where. The characters are weak yet they are played up, or told to others, that they are some of the strongest in their lines. Once more, like Forests and Demon, Amelia gives us cahracters for one paragraph (or sentence!) names them, and then never speaks of them again. Great if she's going to talk about them in later books, but by then I think I might have gone and destroyed her computer so that she doesn't send any more manuscripts to her editors at Random House and cut down another rainforest! Sarah Vida is annoying- she has a cool car, an evil mother, and she hates vampires. Oh but wait... nope, she loves Christopher, the vampire. The artiste. Gag me. This is just awful. Spare yourself the time and wasted money and energy and just put the book down! The ending is precisely the same as the predecessor, Demon in My View. I'm completely tired of seeing "perfect" people turned into vampires by vamps who were once their enemy. I wish that more talented young authors would get the recognition they deserve. I have read two great works by two young authors (one another vampire writer hopeful) who are struggling to make it when Amelia is sitting here writing stuff that makes me feel less intelligent for having read it in the first place. I fear Midnight Predator, Amelia's fourth outing due in May. I hear it has something to do with the Bruja Guild of vampire hunters going into a place called Midnight to kill a woman vampire named Jeshickah and her right-hand vamp, Jaguar (too close to Jager if you ask me. Get some more original names, please!). But the main characters, one Turquoise Draka and Ravyn Aniketos, are enemies working together, selling themselves in as human slaves, which these vampires seem to use. My question- where are the police with all of this stuff? Are we even on earth anymore? She should just make her own planet or make it more believable. That's what most people want out of a vampire story- the horrorific fear that it COULD be true. Though, the way most of her characters whine and throw tantrums, hers being real might be far more frightening.

Summary: not like Buffy
Review: I know that everyone's saying how much Sarah is like Buffy, but they don't realize that a lot of writers use other people for models. West Side Story was a copy of Romeo and Juliet. And O Brother Where Art Thou is a parody of the Odyssey (spelled right?) Everyone does this. She's talented and that's all that matters.

Summary: Buffy and Angel ring a bell?
Review: ok a vampire slayer falls in love with a young vampire, hmmmmmm? where have we heard this before? anybody heard of buffy the vampire slayer, yeah thats where i heard about this , you see buffy was a vampire slayer and she fell in love with the young vampire, Angle but angle doesnt drink the blood of humans, but animals but then he turned evil and she sent him to hell, well this wasnt exactly like that but the buffy angel thing is right on, this author has a grudge against buffy, she should get her own material

Summary: AMELIA DOES IT YET AGAIN!
Review: The third vampiric outing for teenage author AMELIA ATWATER-RHODES is her best yet. Now 17, Amelia has shown a steady
growth in her skills, her characterizations, and the believable
mixture of horror and teen angst that makes BUFFY such a
success. But Amelia's skill and imagination are uniquely her
own. She obviously has a master plan of where these stories
are going, how her vampire and witch clans progress in future
novels. Having recently had the honor of meeting Amelia on
her signing tour, I can vouch for her charismatic presence
and her totally unaffected-by-fame style. This is THE future
of vampire tales, folks! The only problem with her novels is
they END! This one is longer than IN THE FORESTS OF THE NIGHT and DEMON IN MY VIEW, and hopefully next year's outing (MIDNIGHT
PREDATOR) will be even longer!
