I enjoy reading about the Glass House gang's adventures. Claire gets into so much vampire trouble it's amazing. But Michael and Shane are always there to rescue her. I love it. I really like Michael and Shane they're kinda old school protectors of the weak. It's rather sweet behavior. The plot twists and turns are entertaining and interesting.

This series keeps the focus on four friends who live together in Morganville at the Glass House, but the youngest one - Claire Danvers is the main protagonist. Claire is a college student who, because of her intelligence started college early, and she soon discovers that Morganville is a unique place - it's run by vampires. In this third book in the series - more secrets are revealed and Claire gets more and more involved with the mysterious vampires. A lot of what drew me into the book was the constant danger that Claire is in. I found her to be an intelligent person who was also pretty naive. She often is really emphatic and nice - to people who maybe she shouldn't be nice to. There were a few instances in this book where I think she begins to realize that while she sees something like humanity and flashes of sympathy from the vampires, in reality her life and the lives of many humans is meaningless and expendable to them. I'm curious to see how the author is going to resolve this problem - whether these creatures deserve a "happy" ending for the series. I am not sure what will happen - if Claire and her friends survive, I doubt the it will be without cost. Claire's reactions to things sometimes seemed inconsistent with her character, but I've been able to ignore this for the story. For those of you familiar with Caine's books, you may realize that this author enjoys cliffhanger endings. I noticed this trend in not only the Morganville books, but also in the Weather Warden series. Once I got used to it I haven't been bothered by this, and I found that book 1 (Glass Houses) had the most edge of your seat ending, though book 2 and 3 do make you want to get the next book. Some readers may find the cliffhangers aggravating.

I'm so glad to be done with this book. I really liked the series at first, but I've grown to dislike Claire. The characters seem one-dimensional. I won't be continuing the series.

Love it. Claire is signed to work with Myrnin who is a nut case vampire/scientist. This book I could not put down.

Fast read. Enjoyed it. A little mystery in each book. Looks like Claire may be extra special. Look forward to finding out what makes her so special.
