*Warning* here there be spoilers.(note: I read about 85% according to my kindle and just couldn't go any further, so this review wont spoil the end because I didn't get to it).This book is horrible. I bought it because one of the very first five star reviews said something about the main character not being Bella Swan, but being a strong 17 year old. That...is absolute rubbish. Sofia is just as boring, bland and two-dimensional as Bella Swan, and Derek is a Cullen clone.Firstly... Sofia gets kidnapped on her birthday from her family. She is naturally upset about it, but a few days in Derek's company and the fact that she is a prisoner is all but forgotten except a few off-hand mentions of being a captive. She tries to escape once, and then barely thinks about escaping again except once or twice in a "oh there is no way to escape so lets stop focusing on it" way.Secondly...when coming into The Shade she passes through tunnels literally lined with holding cells filled with emaciated people. She is barely shocked at this, and they aren't mentioned again. A few girls are taken with Sofia to be part of Derek's harem, and Sofia shows some concern for them, but they are just there to make Sofia look caring in Derek's eyes and serve no other purpose to the story. When one of them dies Sofia is shaken up but is more concerned about how it will effect Derek then her friend and doesn't tell her captor who killed the girl.Derek is exactly like Edward Cullen. He's a vampire who hates himself and loves a human woman for no real, concrete, deep emotional reason but that she is a fragile human and she showed sympathy/empathy for one of the other girls.
