Within the first pages, you're already pulled in too deep to get out. Tommy, abandoned in a lift, has no idea who he is, where he is, and why he was there. Goodness, he didn't even know how old he was, let alone his last name. Thomas has been swaying around for at least a half hour, and he doesn't know what to do! But once common sense reaches him, he gives out cries for help, and then gets it. Then as he steps out into the rays if the sun, and his new friends, he begins his new journey. To find himself, and to get out. He quickly figures out how things work around the Glade (the place that he was bought upon). They've been surrounded by a maze, and have been trying to figure out how to escape for years. The only people who step outside of the Glade, are Runners. Many have died trying, many have never been seen again. But for some reason, Tommy has just been pulled in. And he feels as if this"”is his destiny.

"IDrakula" by Bekka Black

2013-03-13T14:28:46Z

Rating: Just Okay (3)

"iDrakula" by Bekka Black is a modern take on a classic-Dracula. It's told through texts, emails, images, and web browser screenshots. It's obvious almost immediately what's going on. iDrakula is a very fast read, even for a 150 page book, and is very fast paced. Because of this, I never really got into the story and didn't feel any connection to the characters. It was a good story, but I think it could hae been told better if it included an actual story, not just texts and emails. Overall, iDrakula was an okay book.
