Good book.
No doubt. Great pacing, great characters, great balance of everything. Interestingly enough, the whole time I've read through it, I've always felt this...lack of presence...in the story. Despite the fact that there's nothing particularly different, it feels like the world they know is a bit emptier and more barren of people than what we know, which is highly appropriate since it's a vampire's world at night -- the theme park isn't too busy, the swimming pool is empty, their penthouse has only two people, etc.

Plus, the "princess" is like, unstoppably cute. I know I'd give away my whole life to care for her for eternity and more like that guy does.
