I was disappointed with this vampire mini-series. It seemed to copy an earlier Sweet Valley High trilogy about werewolves (Love & Death in London, Date With a Werewolf, & Beware the Wolfman). In both trilogies, there are mysterious human and pet murders. In the werewolf trilogy, Elizabeth is in love with a werewolf, while in the vampire series, Jessica is in love with a vampire. That difference makes it a whole new story!

The plot in DOD is stale and has been used many times before. Jessica falls madly in love with a new boy, and Elizbeth is torn between her summer fling, Joey Mason, and her boyfriend, Todd Wilkins. This dilemma might have more novelty if Elizabeth hadn't already cheated on Todd in many other books.

Jessica and Enid both fall in love with Jonathan Cain, who is a vampire. Of course Jonathan rejects Enid for Jessica, who always gets her man.

When a young woman is murdered, Elizabeth irrationaly jumps to the conclusion that it must be Jessica, because the murder victim is a blonde, as is Jessica. Coincidentally, In Love & Death in London, Elizabeth also believes Jessica has been murdered. This is just an old story with a new villan.

This book was great, I couldn't put it down! Jessica is obsessed with Jonathan, and although it's obvious Jonathan is attracted to her he won't open himself up to her. What does he have to hide?

It's book 2 of these suspensful 3-part mysteries. Jessica loves Jonathan Cain, who just moved to Sweet Valley. But Jonathan he resists Jess everytime she comes his way. Is he just not interested, or does he have something deadly to hide?

I loved it I really loved it I can't wait to read the next

All of it!!!!!!
