Book Review 4: Twelfth Grade Kills

Do you believe in the supernatural? How about vampires? What if one vampire, a special vampire, could rule all of man and vamp kind? Heather Brewer's Twelfth Grade Bleeds took hold and didnt realese its grip until the highly anticipated end.

Heather Brewer is one of my fav. authors. She has written many good books. What makes this one better than the rest? Three things in particular stand out to me. They the characters, the ability to hold my interest this long into the series, and having a satisfying end to said series.

We'll start things up with the characters. Now, the typical vamp book a person will read will have the vamps with all these superpowers and no where near human. Don't get me wrong, this book is pretty much just like that except that the author did a good job at making these certain vamps seem human enough to make them relatable to. Also, the other characters in this book are very good support characters that really help this story flow.

Next up, the books ability to keep my interest in the series so far into it. Many books that are series have lost my interest because after the second, sometimes first, they seem to just loose steam in manner of speaking. The first two are like BOOM, then the rest are just like meh. Except this one. This book is like a punch to the face from the beggining to the end.

And to finish it up, I shall talk about the amazing ending to an equally amazing series. How many times has a series, books, tv, or game, had an amazing run just to disappoint at the end? An unfortunate amount. This book, however, does not. It has a fitting ending to the story that does not leave the reader with an empty feeling like the story just ended with no real ending or that the ending was rushed. This one was well thought out and developed at just the right speed to leave the reader happy and content.

I would recommend this book to anyone. It is a very good book and worth the time to read.
