Insatiable by Meg Cabot



SICK OF HEARING ABOUT VAMPIRES?
SO IS MEENA HARPER.

Meena Harper is familiar with the supernatural. After all, she knows how you're going to die. (Not that you're going to believe her. No one ever does.)

But not even Meena's precognition can prepare her for Lucien Antonescu--whom she meets and then makes the mistake of falling in love with--a modern-day prince with a bit of dark side for which an ancient society of vampire hunters would prefer to see him dead.

The problem is Lucien's already dead. Maybe that's why he's the first guy Meena's ever met with whom she could imagine herself having a future. See, while Meena's always been able to see everyone else's destiny, she's never been able to look into her own. Lucien seems to be everything Meena has ever dreamed of in a boyfriend, though he might turn out to be more of a nightmare.

SO NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME FOR MEENA TO START LEARNING TO PREDICT HER OWN FUTURE...IF SHE HAS ONE.

==I liked it. There is always items I wish the author would of done differently. But overall, the book was entertaining. But I do have to compliment the author on her set up for a sequel. It tied up the loose ends of the book, while also leaving the door open for more to the story to be added later. She didn't string you along with a piece of cheese like most YA authors do to their readers. Not saying that this was a YA book. If they had toned down the touchy feely, it could apeal to the older of the YA audiance. Even I felt a little uncomfortable.

I did roll my eyes how she spoofed Susan Lucci, the Twilight Series, The Vampire Diaries show, then rode the coat tails of Bram Stoker. But...no one is perfect. I will look for her sequel to this, and just may pick up another of Meg Cabot's books. I'm starting to like you Meg. ==
