Personally, im not the type of person who likes reading about vampires. Since i read New Moon, i stop liking vampire stories. Im more of a wizard kind of person ;) 
 But, my friend insisted me on reading this one, saying it is way better than Twilight. I thought, what the heck. And yeah i kinda like it, its a tiny weeny bit better than Twilight tho cause it doesnt contain all those crap about glittering vampires. Plus, the concept of vampires in HON is more "realistic" and "acceptable" for me. And this school, The House of Night, is really interesting, the subjects and how the time flips over. Night become day and vice versa. Its like Hogwarts for wizards, but this one a school for vampires. Lol 
 Sadly, i can ensure you one thing that Zoey is not my favorite. This main character is unimaginably annoying. Zoey, from my point of view, is kind of a show-off, and flirty, but also at the same time, trying to make people think that she's a goody-two-shoes. Ergh. And i cant believe what the authors wrote for this book. A blowjob? Seriously? A blowjob in the middle of a hall. Okay, its fine if they want to add that to this book, but the way they describe it is so... slutty. Honestly, I think this Zoey character is sluttier than Aphrodite. Reading it somehow makes me lost respect of the authors. 
 K whatever, sum it all up, the book was okay. Might as well try to read the second one.
