Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Val

Like many of Ms.Rhodes's other novels Shattered Mirror is the story of vampires, love, self discovery, humanity and of course a kick-butt female heroine. In Shattered mirror readers learn that Sarah the narator is one merciless vampire hunter/witch who is out to destroy the vampire who took the life of her ancestor Elisabeth Vida. While posing as a human in school she meets Christopher and Nissa two mormal school kids, who seem harmless enough ad try to be her friends. Harmless though I think not, for Sarah knows that they are both vampires though not bloodthirsty and cruel like many of their kin. She struggles internally on deciding whether she wants to befriend them and risk being disowned and stripped of her powers or for the first time feel really good about herself which comes with having friends. That, mixed with the action of finding Nikolas and being determined to kill him which she finds out isn't so easy is what makes this novel like Ms.Rhodes's other novels priceless. The real question readers dare to ask themselves is... is everything black or white?
