In the year 1701, Rachel Weatere was seventeen and living a fairly normal life. Normal in all ways except for the fact her beloved twin brother had magical powers he couldn’t control. She was also seventeen when her brother’s confrontation with the vampires Ather and Aubrey escalated and they turned their combined gaze to her. Forcibly made a vampire and believing her brother dead, Risika was the name she was given and Risika was who she became...
i thought this book looked interesting and read the little summary, then when i read on the back that it had been written by a thirteen-year-old, i became even more curious (being a teenager myself.). i read it pretty fast(in a day); it was good. was it amazing? not really. but i was impressed that she wrote it at such a young age. I always love strong heroines. I loved how she developed and became someone fierce and not looking back. I was so happy when she went up against Aubrey(who i love b/c he was kinda hot, but still hated at the same time) she defended him. Risika become Risika because of her brother, she wanted to avenge him. there's a BIG surprise at the end.
rating 4/5 stars
