My Thoughts

I’ll admit it. I was drawn to THE COLDEST GIRL IN COLDTOWN because of its cover. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but what I got was a unique story that was fun and suspenseful. I liked it a lot.

I loved the concept of the Coldtowns. I thought it was really unique and it seemed like a good way to quarantine the infectious vampirism disease. But, I often wondered if Coldtowns could really keep vampires in. I don’t think they could, but I didn’t let that bother me too much because it made for a good setting to the story.

Tana seemed a little aloof to me. I couldn’t quite pin down her motives or personality. I really liked Gavriel. I loved how contradictory he was. He didn’t want to be a monster, but at the same time, he knew he was so he used it to his advantage.

I really liked that there was a little bit of romance, but I wanted more. I know the romance wasn’t the main point of the story, but I think I would’ve liked it more if it was.
