After reading the book that felt like it was never going to end, I'm not in the mood to write a long review!

SPOILERS

I'll say that I almost didn't finish it. I felt like Keira was never going to get with the damn immortal stalker.

The start was a lot like Twilight. A girl moves away from home, to somewhere it's cold and rains a lot. She meets an incredibly rich family. She develops an obsession with one of the family. The family are some sort of supernatural beings. The one she's obsessed with stalks her, watches her while she sleeps, saves her from her own occasional stupidity. Now, am I talking about Afterlife, or Twilight?

I'm getting sick of books where the protagonist is seemingly nothing special, but is obviously the most amazing thing ever at the same time. Get a grip.

Oh, and you know how the damsel in distress is always taken by some bad guy, and the immortal stalker has to save her? That happened in this book. And from the “cliffhanger” at the end of the book. It'll happen in the next, and I certainly don't care for it.
