Publisher's Summary

Amaliya wakes under the forest floor, disoriented, famished and confused. She digs out of the shallow grave and realizes she is hungry... ... in a new, horrific, unimaginable way... Sating her great hunger, she discovers that she is now a vampire, the bloodthirsty creature of legend. She has no choice but to flee from her old life and travels across Texas. Her new hunger spurs her to leave a wake of death and blood behind her as she struggles with her new nature. All the while, her creator is watching. He is ancient, he is powerful, and what's worse is that he's a necromancer. He has the power to force the dead to do his bidding.

Amaliya realizes she is but a pawn in a twisted game, and her only hope for survival is to seek out one of her own kind. But if Amaliya finds another vampire, will it mean her salvation... or her death?

Damn pretty !!

What did you like most about Pretty When She Dies?

Definitely how vampire stories should be. Amaliya wakes up in her own grave & hungry... Its starts with a massacre & then Amaliya trying to escape her creator while trying to find her way in her new world. Amaliya finds help with a fellow vampire, leading him to question how he is living his own life & with the help of a few humans Amaliya must face her creator to save everyone she has come to care for or risk losing it all. Purchased the 2nd book in the series even before had finished, can't wait to see where this story goes.

What did you like best about this story?

Theres blood, biting, sex, death & love. No stupid moody sparkly vampires in this. These vampires, bite, feed, f**k & kill. Amaliya doesn't have much luck, she tries to be good despite her new existence, you do feel for her & have hope.

Have you listened to any of Kristin Allison’s other performances? How does this one compare?

I didn't mind her narration, talks at a good pace. Her voice only slightly changes for the characters but you can still tell who it is thats speaking.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed, cheered, smiled, was saddened & happy.
