Eternal by Cynthia Leitich Smith


Summary from the book: At last, Miranda is the life of the party: all she had to do was die. Elevated and adopted by none other than the reigning King of the Mantle of Dracul, Miranda goes from high-school theater wannabe to glamorous royal fiend overnight. Meanwhile, her reckless and adoring guardian angel, Zachary, demoted to human guise as the princess’s personal assistant, has his work cut out for him trying to save his girl’s soul and plan the Master’s fast-approaching Death Day gala. In alternating points of view, Miranda and Zachary navigate a cut-throat eternal aristocracy as they play out a dangerous and darkly hilarious love story for the ages.


REVIEW: At first, I thought this book was stupid, because it made no sense to me, but as I kept reading it actually was pretty interesting! I liked the alternating  points of view, between Miranda ( the vampire) and Zachary ( Guardian Angel). It's kind of sad, because Zachary loves Miranda and yet he can't tell her that because he is forbidden to reveal his identity to Miranda.

One night Miranda goes to the grave yard with her best friend, and she became "undead"  Zachary made his biggest mistake, he  reveals himself to her to save her. I found it touching because Zachary sacrificed his position as Miranda's Guardian Angel...just to save her!   I give this 8/10 because I wish it was longer!

  1. I liked this book too, because it included vampires that actually kill people - what a concept! Sadly, it isn't very popular
