When Night Falls

by R'Lee R. Coffey

A secret is a glimpse into the past.
A glimpse of something hidden...

My family’s secrets are like dead corpses shoved into cupboards, abandoned to rot and stew. To be forgotten.
All it took was a freak accident, the death of my best friend, to loosen the lock and let all those secrets waft out, ripe with the smell of betrayal.
In order to tell a story, you have to go back to the beginning; before things get out of control, before the cupboard door breaks open.

And I, Lucien Kinkaid, am going to do just that.

I freaking loved this book. I loved how each character was written and their different personalities. Its hard to choose which character I liked the most because I liked them all the same. The author paints an amazing picture and makes it feel like you are in their head. This book is a lot different from what's already out there and I like that. You can tell she spent a great amount of time on this book. Once you get further into this book its harder to put down. I gave this book five stars because the author did an amazing job with her writing style and her characters. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in this series. Keep up the great work.

I loved that everyone took turns telling the story. I also enjoyed the way you are drawn into the story through well developed characters. The villans and hero's both telling the story was a new but helpful idea.

I didn't make it very far into When Night Falls...this was because of information-overload. There were way too many people constantly being introduced and, for me, that's an automatic book turn-off. I couldn't let myself enjoy the book because I was constantly having to flip back to see who was who. Now, I know this is kinda my job, but I'm not required to read books I don't enjoy, so I started my next one.

I did like that Coffey let you know who was what as soon as it switched to their point of view, that was new for me. R'lee R. Coffey's writing was good, I just couldn't get past the introduction of so many people. I wished I could skip over it, but then I'd have been even more confused!

If you can keep up with a ton of characters and places, and you like vampires, give this book a spin.
