This was an awesome book! I read this for my book report and it blew me away! I love the ways Cooney had described the simplest of things such as the texture and the look of the vampire's skin. She showed how Althea felt throughout the entire book. It was awesome! I recommend this to all vampire-interested readers.

Not only is this book an excellent vampire mystery, it also relates some very real feelings of teenagers in protagonist Althea. All she wants is to be popular - what's so wrong with that? Then she makes a deal with a vampire who can grant her her wish, but only if she will bring him innocent victims. Will she make the right decision and go back to being unpopular? Deadly Offer is gripping and creepy. I would recommend it to anyone who is a mystery or a vampire fan.

this book was pretty good. the reader can experience the feelings althea was going thorugh such as loneliness, the feeling to be popular, etc. She realizes that she would do anything to be popular and get on the cheerleading squad and is willing to pay the price for it by sacrificing victims for the vampire that lives in the dark tower inside the house of where she lives.only then that is she does it, the vampire will help her make those wishes come true even though she knows it it wrong and evil. this book is really good but a little bit too short i recommend it

These books are simply horrible. They have large gaps in the plot but the worst part is the shallow nature of the characters. The girls in all three books want to be pretty or popular. For these silly aspirations they hand over their friends to the vampire. Do they feel bad afterwards, have a moral conflict perhaps? Hardly. They easily justify their betrayals because they get asked out by a cute boy or they get to hang out at the coolest table. I wasn't only disappointed with my purchase, I was disgusted.

Althea doesn't fit in at all in school. She wishes she could be popular and have tons of adoring friends. The vampire who haunts her house can make her dream come true, but at a price. Will it be worth it?

This book is a great start to The Vampire's Promise trilogy. The descriptions throughout this book are excellent. You'll feel like you're right there with Althea, experiencing what she's experiencing.

I just barely got this book and I finished it in one single day! I could not put it down. Alot of the feelings she was feeling were things that I would be able to relate to. I simply loved it. This book has the power to make you happy make you frustrated and make you angry or anything else that this character, Althea, was feeling. I said if before and I will say it again, this was a really good book!

The theme in the story is suspense. Althea wanted to be popular, pretty, and loved by guys. But she didnt seem to fit in. Then she meet a vampire who could make her popular, all she has to do is bring him a human. She first brings Chelste, pretty, popular, a girl everyone wants to be. Then she gives the vampire Jenny. She was Altheas friend before high school.
I can relate to this story because sometimes its hard to fit in with certin people. Im glad they made this story because its suspenseful and fun to read.
