Narration To Books Darkness Before Dawn (Darkness Before Dawn Trilogy #1)
At seventeen, Dawn Montgomery knows that monsters really do come out at night—after all, they are her job. It’s just after the thirty-years war between vampires and humans, and as an ambassador between the two sides (a role she inherited when her parents were killed), Dawn quickly learns that balancing schoolwork, teen life, and the requests of Lord Valentine, the most frightening vampire in the region, isn’t easy. And it only gets more complicated when she forms a tentative friendship with Victor, the mysterious stranger who rescued her from a hoard of vampires…only to discover that not only is Victor a vampire, but that he is Lord Valentine’s son. Soon Dawn is struggling to remember that with everything on the line, she can’t afford to fall for the enemy…

As far as YA vampire books go, Darkness Before Dawn was fairly decent. I don't really feel as though it was amazing, but it was an enjoyable read. It mentions several vampire related series in the synopsis, all of which I haven't read yet, so I don't really know if it pulls many elements from them or not. But of the Vampire books I have read, I easily spotted quite a few similarities. I feel like the mother son duo did a good job making the story their own though, even though I didn't reallyToday started out as a really good day.I didn't have any morning classes so I could sleep in late. I got some good news on the writing front and found out that a contest I entered had very few entrants, so more chances to win. Yay!So I was feeling pretty pumped by the time I got to class and relayed my good news to a guy friend of mine. Somehow, we got on the topic of his opinion on my writing, which I had let him read a while back. He frankly advised me to stop writing because of "spiritual
EDIT: Hmmm... It was kind of too standard for me -- standard romance, lack of chemistry, no surprises, okay main character -- but I felt no connection and it took me longer than expected to finish. Still, it was by no means a bad book! Just... not the greatest! Review to come :) I just found out that part of J.A. London is part Rachel Hawthorne, who wrote the Dark Guardian series! Cool, right?? :)
I had high hopes for this book. Being a reader whos over vampires, I needed this book to wow me, dazzle me and not irritate me. Darkness Before Dawn did not disappoint! I was actually surprised at how good it was!I really liked the writing style in this one. It wove simplistic descriptions with beautiful imagery and I thought the whole book read like a movie. Or at least it did for me! I saw everything play out perfectly in my head. As for the main character, Dawn, I was actually quite fond of
Not quite a five star book but pretty dang close! Short story but it was epic nonetheless. The plot, characterization, writing, love interests and the amazing feels I got from this book were unreal.Really glad I listened to my bro and actually picked up this book, (although it took a few months) because it was read in no time. Loved all the characters in this story, hero, heroine, evil villain vampire lords (who still think the Victorian era is the way to go), best friends, evil vampire
I've got myself a new favorite read everybody! I couldn't turn the pages fast enough in this one. I can't say that I found this to be a surprise, but I was really excited to learn that despite all the hype that I was experiencing before getting my hands on a copy of this to read, I discovered that it wasn't in vain. This new title lived up to the jazz and then some.J.A. London makes up the mother-son writing team of Jan and Alex Nowasky. Jan also writes under the name of Rachel Hawthorne and is
