About this book:
The House of Night series is set in a world very much like our own, except in 16-year-old Zoey Redbird's world, vampyres have always existed. In this first book in the series, Zoey enters the House of Night, a school where, after having undergone the Change, she will train to become an adult vampire -- that is, if she makes it through the Change. Not all of those who are chosen do. It's tough to begin a new life, away from her parents and friends, and on top of that, Zoey finds she is no average fledgling. She has been Marked as special by the vampyre Goddess, Nyx. But she is not the only fledgling at the House of Night with special powers. When she discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters, the school's most elite club, is misusing her Goddess-given gifts, Zoey must look deep within herself for the courage to embrace her destiny -- with a little help from her new vampyre friends.

My thoughts:
Awesome book! I absolutly fell in love with this story. Cast and her daughter did a fantastic job with all the different characters and the storyline is excellent. I was completely surprised and totally didn't know what to expect from Cast with a young adult novel since she's written romance and fantasy for adults. This was a complete shock to find out that she was coming out with a series for young adults and then to find out how excellent it was. :) Definitly deserved a 5 out of 5. I absolutely loved the characters...they were funny and most of them were down to earth. ( Some Spoilers... ) Excellent book! Even for adults as well.
