First I would like to say I am all for Greek myths and if it had gone further into I MIGHT have given it a higher rating but overall I was completely disappointed and felt I wasted my time.To the author Lauren Burd, I understand you are an artist and this is your art... and I appreciate you putting it into the world and even though I hated it I am sure you have some who loved it. This book needs a new editor it was hard to become engrossed in a story with so many grammatical errors, if thatThis book was plain not good. Neither the story nor the characters were compelling enough to make up for the technical flaws.Nothing very original or interesting about any of the characters. The story was almost as generic as they come.What really kills the book are all the technical problems. Consistently misspelled words, poor punctuation, and recycled phrases just kept adding up. So many of each that it was nearly impossible to finish. There must be more ways to describe a person's breath
Frankly, this book sucked. Spoilers ahead, don't continue if you want to read it.The main character, Alina, meets two boys, both extremely handsome, but as different as night and day. She meets Samuel (day) first, and has an ohmigod-I love-him moment, but is confused by how he pretty much avoids her. Duncan (night) on the other hand, seems to really like her, but also seems to be a playboy. After going with Duncan for a while (but still pining for Samuel) she finds out that they are vampires

Girl meets boy, girl likes boy, boy likes girl, girl meets another boy, girl likes boy, boy likes girl...yet again another love triangle. Truly I won't describe this book because up until the last quarter of the book I thought I was reading Twilight. The plots were so close as to almost say that they were identical. Now I will say that the ending was a little different. It was sort of a combination of what I had come to figure out in the duration of the book. reading the last couple pages I
I kept reading this book waiting for something to happen. It started off pretty generic seemingly following a twilight template but then nothing happened that made sense. The characters actions and motivations were never explained. The whole thing just fell flat.
I have recently discovered YA "indie" novels, with Amanda Hocking's Trylle trilogy. Barnes and Noble's NOOK blog recommended this book the other day and the price was right so I thought I would give Immortal a try. It is a great story. I enjoyed it, and couldn't put it down. I can't wait for the second book.
OK - it starts off, a as a cross between Vampire Diaries and Twilight - and actually it keeps it's Twilight feeling throughout I thought - However with that said, it's got a solid twist that'd decidedly NOT Twilight-esk at all...it's interesting and those last few chapters had me quite intrigued...Very excited to read more from Lauren - full review to come!
