All Just Glass


Just when I think I can't possible take another vampire novel, along comes All Just Glass. Amelia Atwater-Rhodes has brilliantly constructed a world full of vampires and the witches that hunt them. All Just Glass, is part of the Den of Shadows series. Sarah, a witch, has been turned into a vampire by her boyfriend. Now Sarah's sister, Adia, has to kill her. Under the Rights of Kin, one of the oldest witch laws, Adia has to kill the vampire that looks like her sister. This fast-paced novel, which takes place over twenty-fours, is a treat for fantasy fans!
