The Coldest Girl in Coldtown is a creepy-fun vampire story. I really liked that it's a stand alone YA novel--there are definitely not enough of those out there. It was entertaining, and there were some unique twists to the vampires-eat-humans thing that kept it from feeling like something I've alre...

I wish I would have started reading Holly Black's books with something other than The Coldest Girl in Coldtown. I have read some of her short stories before, and I've heard only great things about her, but this book just really didn't do it for me.Trigger warnings:ablest languageableismunhealthy rel...

Once again I find myself in the position of being one of the people who loved a book that seemed to be received by the masses as mediocre. I honestly didn't look at any reviews or ratings for this book before I read it (I just read the Kindle sample and had to know what was going to happen), and I'm...

"This is a vampire book? I mean, that's okay, I just had no idea it was about vampires." ~Me, a few pages into The Coldest Girl in ColdtownIt says a lot about my faith in Holly Black that I would buy a book without knowing anything about the plot.It says a lot about her abilities as a storyteller th...

I picked up this book because I've been hearing a lot about it. I've heard good things and I've heard bad things. It has been staring at me for a long time now and I figured this was the time. I needed an audiobook and this was the one that was going to do it. (I went one day without an audiobook an...

I did not want this book to end. There are plenty of wonderful books out there and I love reading them all but there are only a handful each year that I can honestly say I hated having to put down. The Coldest Girl in Coldtown is now in that top list of books I have read so far this year that just ...

The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black It had been one hell of a party. Hangovers were to be expected. Kids with their last drops of blood drained from their bodies? Not so much,even if perhaps the open window should have foreshadowed the outcome. When Tana awakens in the bathtub, it ix to a ...

Yes I realize this title was named for me. Seriously though I was really looking forward to Holly Black’s take on vampires. She has a lush beauty about her writing that I love and never shies away from the ugliness that inhabits the lives of her characters. Her characters can be jerks, this is som...

Well this was a different take on vampires! I actually enjoyed this. Immensely! Good guys are bad guys and bad guys are good guys. You find yourself rooting for both. Our heroine, Tana, is tough as nails and has more determination and bravery are something to be in awe of. Feel like a vampire tale?...
