While this book is technically science fiction, there's a lot of focus on the romance. Because of that, while there's some action and there's a lot of romance, this book is okay if you're looking for a book with a relaxed mood. Oh, and did I mention the romance? 
 The beginning was not written well. Combine that with Daemon acting bipolar, for me, it would've been two stars if it had continued that way. The beginning pretty much focuses on Katy and Damon's relationship, more drama and less action. It's great if you prefer drama - but it's not exactly my piece of cake, so I was kind of bored. If the beginning doesn't suite you, and you have the patience, it gets better around the homecoming dance part, which is at 68% of the book. After that, there's some action, and everyone's in danger, so Daemon magically stops acting bipolar. Reading it the second time, I felt Unearthly vibes, but this seems better, so I'll give it a chance, I guess. 
 Yes, this was a lot like Twilight, but it's better written. There's a lot of parallels plot-wise, character-wise, and a lot of other ways. 
 When I read it the first time, I ignored anything that seemed to ring a (very) faint alarm bell in the back of my head. It was four stars for me. I liked it a lot, and i decided to read it again, slower this time, actually reading (devouring? lol) it this time. I also paid attention to the alarm bells. Unfortunately, the beginning stood out to me worse than it had the first time. Now, it's just a solid three stars for me. I still do like parts of it, but now, some parts really just... argh >.< Flaws aside, the story is entertaining, I guess.
