Night World No. 1: Secret Vampire; Daughters of Darkness; Spellbinder By L.J. Smith
This large book is a simple read comprised of three fun stories. The first story is called Secret Vampire. Don’t let the title give this away but one of the characters comes out of the coffin in this story. Poppy is a teenager that is going to die. There is a way to prevent that, bet you cannot guess how. My dog was surprised at least.
The second story is called Daughters of Darkness. Three vampire sisters in a small town with nosy neighbors! Mary –Lynette soon finds more trouble than she is looking for. Ash, a dashing young vampire swoops in to add extra mischief for everyone involved. Throw in a telescope, a murder, a smothered kitten, and the soulmate principle and you are all set.
Spellbinder the third story is about two witch ‘sisters’ who fight over one hapless human boy. Thea and Blaise play the roles of good witch and bad witch. Eric is the boy stuck between. Thea has always let Blaise take the lead, and now they are on their last chance. Will Thea grow some backbone and learn from her mistakes? Can Eric fight off the romance magic of the beautiful Blaise? Are Thea and Blaise really enemies at heart or true family?
If you’re a fan of Twilight (2003), here are the books it might have been stolen from, re-published in fresh covers for your reminding that vampire teen-angst romances have been around for a long time. (Originally published from 1996–1998).
For Tweens?
Yes. Everything about these books is perfect for Tweens. While the writing and plot lines are not super complex, the stories are well written and portray characters tweens can relate to.
Final Word:
Only for hopeless romantics. Like little bits of twilight, all wrapped up in tiny bon-bon shaped packages.
