Review Night World No. 1 By: L.J. Smith

Night World, No. 1: Secret Vampire; Daughters of Darkness; Spellbinder by L.J. Smith

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I've wanted to read The Night World series for the longest time which is why i was really excited when my grandpa surprised me with it. I love bind-ups which is why i wanted to read the bind-ups instead of the single books. So anyways i really liked the plot behind all three books. The first book is about a girl named Poppy and her best friend James. She's just a normal guy and she's a vampire and it's against the rules for a person of the Night World to fall in love with or tell a human about the night world. James never plans to tell Poppy about it but she gets cancer and he's the only one that can save her. Thats all i can about the first book without giving spoilers =) So anyways i really liked Poppy's character because she was strong but she had the right amount of emotion in her. My favorite character in the first book though was Poppy's brother Phil. The reason why i liked him the most is because he was such a caring and loving brother. Most of the time brothers are annoying and rude but Phil was always looking out for her. I sometimes think that he was always watching her over her because they're twins and they have like a twin thing. Overall though the first book was really interesting and i liked reading about Poppy's story i hope that theres more about her in the next book.

The second book is about a character who appears in the first book and his name is Ash. He has three sisters who are vampires just like him. The three girls don't like the place they're living in so they decide to go live with there Aunt in a farm basically in the middle of nowhere. When they get there they find there aunt dead and they decide to bury her so no one will find out. But little do they know while they are burying her they are being watched by someone who is going to cause a lot of problems for them. Mary-Lynnette was watching these three girls from her bedroom window she knew they were burying something but she couldn't figure out what. After that night Mary-Lynnette becomes curious and it all goes down hill from there. In this book my favorite characters were Mark and Ash. Mark because he was so sweet and innocent and he just wanted to be with Jade even if she is a vampire. Ash i liked him because he was a bad guy who thought of humans as vermin until he meets Mary-Lynnette. The second book is really entertaining so i highly suggest it to you =)

The third and final book in the first book of the night word series is about two cousins who are witches named Blaise and Thea who are pretty troubled. They're both orphans and they need to stop getting in trouble because if they don't they'll be shipped off to a place where they don't want to go. Unfortunately though as soon as they get to the new school Thea falls in love which is you know fatal in the night word, and that is the whole problem that goes on in the third book. I love Thea and Eric they're such a good a sweet couple. I really shouldn't say any more then that but the two of them are so sweet together even though they don't acknowledge it at first. I wasn't to fond of Blaise but i did love Thea because she fell and love and she gave into it. I hate the girls that fall in love but they don't do anything about it for many stupid reasons but i can't stand those girls in books because they just make me want to scream =) Anyways i really enjoyed this book and L.J. Smith never fails to amaze me!
