I sensed there was more action in this section of the book because Zoey finally gets to realize what it is like to have to live a day-to-day life surrounded by only vampires.

In most cases, schools have both the good friends and the people you do not want to associate with. Zoey was somewhat able to figure out who her true friend was so far, and that has to be Stevie Rae.

Most of all, they hate humans, and if you don't feel the same they don't want shit to do with you."(p.86) School is difficult, but imagine a school filled with vampires; hopefully Zoey Redbird makes it through okay.

Since the majority of the vampires are pale and white, Zoey found it quite amazing that there was a Jamaican vampire. It really stood out to me because of the way Zoey had described her “she was the color of cappuccino (the kind you get from the real mber best was whe honestly had me laughing.
