This series appeared on so many book blogs, I had to pick it up.  When I start a series, I want to be able to read the entire thing back to back.  Thankfully, the library had five books in this series, so I got them all.  And read the first one in 4 hours.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book!  Loved the characters (loved Oliver and Bliss and Schuyler and hated Mimi).  Loved the different vampire mythology.  Loved the setting (upper class vampires in NYC, obvious now that I think about it).  Loved the cliffhanger (great set up for the rest of the series).  The inclusion of dog familiars was a great addition.

I definitely want to start on the next book in the series.  Thank goodness I got it from the library.
