 Not That Impressed December 4, 2008
I have read dozens of young adult, urban fantasy, fiction, etc novels about vampires. Yes all of them seem similar, all of them may have semi-predictable outcomes after reading so many for so many years, but Marked is one of the books I had high hopes for, only to be disappointed. There's plot, action, originality, but to be totally honest the writing style did not do it justice. I felt like i've read fanfictions that were more engaging, this just seemed to combine pure chick lit with vampirism. Decent for a start, but out of all the books my sister has let me borrow, this is the only one I haven't read, and one of the only books I tell people to think twice about reading.
Interesting December 3, 2008
I truly enjoyed this book, it was interesting and definetly a different take on the way we look at vampires.
 Hmm.. November 24, 2008
At first, when I started reading this book, it completely bored me. The story line consisted of fluff, and was obviously copied from other popular series. The characters were boring, and unoriginal. The first few chapters were HORRIBLE. However, I forced myself to read this book because I kept thinking it would get better. Towards the middle-end of the book, it started getting better. The writers seemed to have realized that readers needed more substance and kicked it up a notch. The characters started getting depth and originality to them. It actually got interesting and I no longer had to force myself to read the book. I finished it fairly quickly because it had started to get better.
Even though I did not like the book at first, all in all, it wasn't too bad of a read. After reading the whole book, I would say that I liked it, despite the beginning of the book. It is very short, and could have used a couple more hundred pages; some parts seemed really rushed.
I would recommend his to anyone who wants to explore different types of books. (I am not a fan of sci fi/fantasy at all but wanted to branch out..) If you are serious and don't want to waste your time, I would def. not recommend this book to you.
I thought the first book was good enough to buy the second. I really hoped that the last half of the book was an indication that the writing and characters were getting more complex. After reading the second, and third books, I can now say that I actually am fond of the books. I am glad I stuck through the first book because the other books in the series are WAY better, and def. worth reading.
Excellent series November 22, 2008
This book was too simple for my liking. However, it is a great set up for book 2, which I loved. If you are a fan of Twilight or the Gemma Doyle Trilogy, you will like this book. It is has elements of "Mean Girls" and talks about Gossip Girls and cool clothing. I recommend it for teen girls.
Good...but i wouldn't call it memorable November 21, 2008
I recently became interested in the Vampire novel genre after reading Twilight. Since reading it i have read about 10 other vampire series, including this one. Sadly this one is at the bottom of my recommendation list for other to read. The first few books from this series were very promising, which made me read all of them that are released but i was very disappointed afterward. I did not feel as close to the characters as i wanted to, or become attached, at all. And i felt as though there were many loose ends in the novels. I found myself asking questions about the story and characters that were given no answers. If you want to read a great story based on vampires, i would look elsewhere before reading House of Night.
