Another fun, fast-paced read in the world of Moroi, dhampirs, and Alchemists! This time with adult situations. Unlike in Twilight where love scenes are cold vampire-centric furniture breakers, The Fiery Heart explores Sydney and Adrian's interactions from a very human view of first love. (view spoiler)[So there's quite a bit a sex, not explicitly described, but shown in a way that will be very appealing to young, dreamy-eyed readers. Probably not one I'd put in a my (previous) school's library. (hide spoiler)] I felt frustrated with some of Syndey's behavior and choices just because of the inevitability of messing things up. And I just super hate her family. This one leaves off with another major cliffhanger. Luckily I have Silver Shadows ready and waiting!
