This book (first of many) was written by a mother and her daughter together, which makes the book better. The daughter, who is in college, provies a younger influence. She gives the main character, Zoey, a more accurate and current teenage mind. The mother's input provides a more mature and weathered air to the adults. I find that the two create a balanced book. The setting takes place outside Tulsa, Oklahoma, where a young girl gets married as a vampyre and sent to "The House of Night." The House of Night is a school where fledgling vampyres attend classes that teach them house to cope with the changes their body and mind will make such as blood lust, sleeping during the day, night vision, etc.... Zoey finds out she's special soon after she's marked when the vampyre goddess Nyx pays her a visit. Zoey must learn to deal with the becoming a vampyre, making new friends, making several enemies, and being special. This was certainly different from the Twilight saga, but I was ready to read more when I was done. I would tell many people to read this book.
