The Silver Kiss by Annette Curtis Klause

"I'm letting a crazy boy into the house, a crazy boy that eats birds."

This is basically what Twilight wishes it was. A vampiric tale for young adults with a real sense of danger and great writing. Zoe's mother is dying and she is having a hard time dealing with every day life. As she withdraws she notices a pained youth that seems to haunt the local streets and exhibits some unusual behaviour. Is he responsible for an outbreak of violence in the local areas? Or is he something else?

This was hauntingly beautiful and I'm really glad I discovered it through this Abebooks list. I love a good Vampire tale and this is how one should be done! Girl meets boy, boy just happens to be more than 300 years old - its a tale as old as time.



5 out of 5 silver crosses won't save you from love in the dark.
