Great story, good twists

Loved it. Though there have been many vampire stories written, this one is a bit different yet still familiar. Well written and performed. I recommend this title as an interesting and easy listen.

Transformation and Horror

An internal journey of transformation -- Elizabeth Rubis, an ambitious young professional, who has struggled to gain ground emotionally and professionally finds herself forced into a new existence. Something dark and beyond her control. This Gothic Horror story, told from the victim's POV, teases the suppressed anger and fear out of her internal world into the streets of San Francisco where she unleashes her fury and unquenchable thirst. You find yourself relating to how this transformation could happen-- even to you-- through her internal dialogue and struggle to hold onto the last dregs of her humanity. Colorful, and relatable characters, plenty of blood, gore and action and mindful reflection, makes for a thought provoking and suspenseful rollercoaster ride of vampiric fun for fans of Gothic Horror.

boring

I forced myself to listened to chapter 10. The characters are flat and the story is boring. The only reason I got so far is because I skipped forward to get through the boring inner monologues. This book is a waste of time.
