I know, i looked it up, insatiable is an adult novel. But, could you blame me for picking it up, and indulging in my out right outlandish fetish of vampires? Especially when Meg Cabot decides to follow suit and write her own? I think not! I won't spend all my time gushing over how much i love Meg Cabot, instead of reviewing. So here I go:

Insatiable cannot be described as anything but an breathtaking novel that truly captures, love, adventure, and smoking hot male characters. The story has chapters that switch between the characters in the book and their thoughts or whatever they are doing.

Lucien is introduced when he saves Meena from a colony of bats (little does she know that the bats weren't after her, but Lucien). And who would have thought that Lucien has a dark secret? I sure didn't. can someone say cliche? Anyway then she introduces another character, that one being my favorite. What can i say I always pick favorites. Alaric completely stole my breathe away, especially when he first met Meena (the main character). Alaric goes out of his way to save Meena, leading the reader on to believe that he has a thing her for. That honestly made me giggle like a little girl.

Aren't love triangles just so delicious?

Meena convinces herself that she is in love with Lucien and that Alaric is out of his mind. Alaric breaks news to her that Lucien is the prince of darkness (his secret). Better yet he is the son of Dracula and rules all the vampires. He also has an evil brother, Dimitri, who has always been jealous of hi. The Dracul is what the vamps who Lucien rules are called.

Hiding in the wood work is a rebellion that threatens to make Manhattan its battle ground, and thrust Meena into it all. She is the chosen one (hah, cliche) of Lucien the one he "loves". Because of this Dimitri plots to kidnap her, he fails. He fails because Alaric is there and intercepts it. That is the last straw, the gauntlet is thrown. Lucien is furious. In this that's when the action envelopes you, stopping you from putting the book down.

An epic battle of love and control, threatening to leave you sleep deprived for days thinking about it. My last words. I recommend this book to vamp freaks, romance lovers, adventure seekers, and cliff hanger admirers. ...more

A breezy take on vampires done in Meg Cabot style. Sort of combines Sex in the City and the paranormal. Interesting.

Meg Cabot has to be one of my top ten favorite authors and I love every thing she writes. Insatiable is of course no exception. Insatiable is a new take on an old classic that seems to captivate just about everyone. I find it almost as intriguing as the original story by Mr. Stoker. I think that Meg Cabot has captured the very essence that made Dracula such a great book in her own very amazing book.

In this book you have Meena the writer who also can see when people are going to die. This seems ...more

What a book I don't even know where to start. First I have to say a lot of writers have been trying to attempt to write Paranormal Romance (as the genre is very popular) some authors have succeeded in versatile writing and others have failed. Meg Cabot succeeded, and you can tell she did her research on the subject. Most historical references where are real which was an added bonus to making this storyline seem believable.
