![]() ![]() Meena Harper is a not-so-ordinary girl living in NYC working as a writer on a television show named Insatiable. Maybe because absolutely nothing happens in the 69 pages leading up to that. It’s page 70 before Lucien and Meena actually cross paths but for some reason, it feels more like page 700. ![]() In fact the only reason I think that I even finished this book is because my fiance’s daughter was here on the weekend and subjected me to what felt like a 123hr marathon of The Hills and The City and this book was only marginally a better alternative. For a start, it took forever for the main character Meena to even meet the love interest that turns out to be a vampire, the Prince of Darkness, Lucien Antonescu. This book was all shades of disappointing. Pity it would be pretty much the only time I actually laughed. ![]() The blurb sounded good, the quote on the back (which I mentioned before, in my Library post) had me laughing. So I reserved it immediately at my local library as although I quite like a lot of vampire novels, the craze is almost out of control and I thought a tongue-in-cheek look at the phenomenon would be funny. This is the first Meg Cabot book I’ve ever read and I read it based on the strength of a very good review for it at a book review blog. ![]()
