With her boss preoccupied researching the Founder Houses in Morganville, student Claire Danvers is left to her own devices when she learns that three vampiros have vanished without a trace. She soon discovers that the last person seen with one of the missing vampiros is someone new to town-a mysterious individual named Magnus. After an uneasy encounter with Morganville’s latest resident, Claire is certain Magnus isn’t merely human. But is he a vampire-or something else entirely?
As Michael and Eve make preparations for their wedding, certain undead members of the Morganville community begin making all kinds of noise objecting to the idea. Everyone seems to have an opinion on why Michael and Eve shouldn’t get married – except the couple themselves. Even Shane and Claire express concern. Michael is a vampire; Eve is human. A lifelong predatory union such as that is bound to end in tragedy, right? At least, that’s what the history books show. Eve wonders … could her relationship with Michael go down in history as the first human/vampire relationship to really make it?
In Bite Club we saw Shane and Claire face all kinds of adversity. Shane let Claire down – repeatedly – and both of them still have wounds to heal from that experience, but Last Breath opens showing Shane and Claire mais in love, stronger than they’ve ever been before. It’s obvious they’re meant to be together, through thick and thin, the good and the bad, the ugly and the beautiful – but what about in death? Last Breath sees Shane and Claire face the ultimate challenge – the biggest one they’re likely to encounter ever.
Meanwhile, outside the Glass House, Morganville is in a state of disarray. vampiros are going missing and something has spooked Amelie out of her mind. She’s packing up the vampiros and planning a mass exodus out of Morganville. It looks like the humans will finally have their town back.
Or will they?
If I know Amelia – and I think por now I do – leaving the humans to their own devices is not something she’s particularly known for. She says they’re leaving and allowing the humans to reclaim the town, but is that really what’s going on? Would she really leave a bunch of humans behind untouched, uncontrolled? Not very likely.
And Claire and Shane know it. Complacency, happiness, contentment – these are things that Shane and Claire will never get to experience. Not while they’re living in Morganville, anyway. In an epic battle – mais epic than anything Morganville has ever seen – the Glass House gang will cadastrar-se the vampires, again, in the fight for their very lives.
Last Breath threw many curve balls that I never saw coming. Predictable is not a word I would choose to describe this series. Just when you think Caine can’t possibly develop this world any further, she does. Just when you think these characters have grown as much as they possibly can, Caine manages to mould them into even mais dynamic, even greater characters. I never get tired of leitura these books. With Last Breath Caine delivers one of the most thrilling cliffhangers to date, and as always, I’m now anxiously awaiting the arrival of the seguinte chapter in this awesome series.

This novel of awesome beauty and power is a moving saga about people, relationships, and the boundaries of love.
Through Jean M. Auel’s magnificent storytelling we are taken back to the dawn of modern humans, and with a girl named Ayla we are swept up in the harsh and beautiful Ice Age world they shared with the ones who called themselves The Clan of the Cave Bear.
Besides the book there was a movie in the 80's starring Daryl Hanna (Kill bill).
Totally Amazing!! Every Woman Should read it!!
The Story
While leitura the novel, I did not quite understand the story and it was not until the segundo half of the story that I managed to understand. It telling us to follow our dreams if a person desires for it!
The Characters
Santiago (or the Boy in this story) is a very likable character because he manage to understand what the Alchemist is telling despite being relatively young, he is my favourite character out of the novel!
The other characters like the Englishman and just to name a few are very ambiguous, if you ask me.
Is It Worth Reading?
Yes, I highly recommend this book for those who have not read it yet!
J.K. Rowlings world of harry potter is fantstic!!! She took everything we know about fantasia composição literária and bended it into a oposite realitiy called harry potter. We all know stories of werwolves, but professer lupin, a teacher at Hogwarts, is a freindly one with a background of mystery. J.K. Rowling made it clear that he is a character to like. All of her characters are eteremly likeable, even the vilanous lucsious malfoy. With seven books in all for the harry potter series, each one better than the last, we all wish she would continue the story of frendship, hardship, and fantasia that is harry potter. leitura the series is a must. No mater how many times you have read the series, ejoyment comes with each encounter. READ HARRY POTTER!!!

My name's Lisa.I'm 17.My mom died two years atrás from cancer and my dad's somewhere in the world of wonders.
I ran away from início three months after my mom pasted.My dad changed after his wife died.He got mais violent and wasn't as friendly.I grew tired of his crap.So my simple solution was to run away.Be free.
I found a house in the woods of Colorado and decided to call it mine.It was all boarded up.But i fixed it up with the money I took before I left.
Of course the money wouldn't last forever so i got a job at the closest SPCA.A job that i wouldn't have to go to college to have.Walking the dogs.I figured that would pay enough,at least for now.
Then my adventure started.An adventure so big to last ones life.The one who changed my view of life.
