Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways. “Shades of Twilight,” which I received from the author as part of the member giveaway program, is an unsophisticated narrative that perhaps tries to trade off on the extreme popularity of the novels and movies. It’s told from the point of view of Melissa, a recent high school graduate around whom events threatening and strange begin to swirl. A young and handsome young man saves her life on a couple of occasions, but turns out to be a vampire. Author Martin C. Sharlow does a decent job of starting the story in common, everyday circumstances, but the protagonist seems very dim and unaware of what’s happening around her, and discovers rather surprisingly late the nature of the new man she has found.In fact, I had a difficult time with the sudden mood swings and unfounded rages and the unpredictable tears of the first-person narrator. Some of it was supposedly warranted by tricks and vampire hypnosis, but they were a little too frequent and always unexplained. The author at least sustained his narrative and was true to his point of view, but the manuscript could clearly use a professional editing. In the basic requirement that a piece of fiction create in our imaginations a “continuous dream,” this one falls short. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Melissa has waited her whole life to move out and start her own. This is her first summer after graduating and now she has her own place and a job. Everything she wanted is starting to happen. Until the accident. After almost drowning, the most gorgeous guy she has ever seen not only saves her life, but forever changes it. What do you do when you find out that life as you have always known it isn't real, and the man you love is a vampire, out to save you from something worse?

I found this book to be extremely slow paced. Melissa came across as a whiny pre-teen rather than the young adult she was supposed to be. Overall I cannot recommend this book to others. ( )
