2.5 stars. This was a re-read for me. And honestly? I liked it better the first time around. This time, I really noticed just how stupid, naive and reckless Claire was and that basically, all that happened was her fault because she ran around half-cocked instead of listening to what the others were telling her, instead of asking for advice. Not knowing the rules, the hierarchy and structure of the vampire society, she went to a man she barely knew and almost invited him inside their house! Girl, I thought you were a genius, but you're just a dumb 16-year-old. I liked Michael and Shane who were the saving grace here but... I guess the saying you can't step twice into the same river is true - don't re-read your old favorites, you might not like them anymore.
