I don't want to see me get screwed up by the vampireness.
Read this when I was about twelve and remember absolutely loving it. Without reading it again I can't say for sure if it's stood the test of time, it was back in the early nineties after all.

I did not love this book. Things were simply too perfect all the time. From the beginning Sita has no weaknesses and she gains more as the story goes along. She is an interesting character and I will probably continue to read the series but I was bored till the end of the book.
