In 16-year-old Zoey Redbird’s world, vampyres not only exist but are also tolerated by humans. Those whom the creatures “mark” as special enter the House of Night school where they will either become vampyres themselves, or, if their body rejects the change, die. To Zoey, being marked is truly a blessing, though she’s scared at first. She has never fit into the human world and has always felt she is destined for something else. Her grandmother, a descendant of the Cherokee, has always supported her emotionally, and it is she who takes the girl to her new school. But even there the teen stands apart from the others. Her mark from the Goddess Nyx is a special one, showing that her powers are very strong for one so young. At the House of Night, Zoey finds true friendship, loyalty, and romance as well as mistrust and deception. She realizes that all is not right in the vampyre world and that the problems she thought she left behind exist there as well. Readers will identify with many of the characters, especially the protagonist. The story moves quickly (a little too quickly at the end) and purposely leaves many unresolved issues.

DO NOT compare this book to Twilight…ever. The Vampires in this book (spelt vampyres) are very different. I love how the mother and daughter write this series together 
Although the whole book may seem cliche (which is slightly is), it definitely changes throughout the series. This is probably the worst book in the series…but beginnings are slow in many books or series. Just a warning, theres a lot of…”innapropriate” langauge in this book. But who cares 
Rating: ★★½
