I enjoyed this book thoroughly ( )

Risika, a teenage vampire, wanders back in time to the year 1684 when, as a human, she died and was transformed against her will. ( )

I need to re-read if I want to get to new book but going to pass vs keeping up with a YA series. ( )

I read this book when I was in middle school.

17 year old Rachel Weatere, born 1684, lives with her twin brother, half sister and father. Her twin brother, Alexander, thinks he is the devil. He can read people's thoughts, make things happen without touching anything, and manipulate fire. Accidentally burning their half sister, Lynette. Rachel is Alexanders only comfort.
A stranger brings Rachel a black rose, it pricks her finger making her bleed. Later that night Rachel hears Alexander sneaking out and follows him. Alexander was speaking to two vampires, Ather and Aubrey. They were going to turn Rachel as vengeance against Alexander for interfering when Ather previously tried to feed on Lynette. Rachel tries to protect Alexander but he is dragged off by Aubrey wielding a knife. As Rachel tries to go after them she is grabbed by Ather and turned into a vampire.
300 years later, Rachel now calls herself Risika, while trying to feed she accidentally trespasses on Aubrey's territory. He leaves her another black rose and a note reminding her to stay in her place. She burns the note.
Aubrey finds out that Risika has been accompanied by a Bengal tiger named Tora and kills it. Absolutely heartbroken, Risika transforms into a hawk and searches for Aubrey. They start to fight, Risika then transforms into a tiger and tackles Aubrey down. Aubrey offers Risika his blood, opening a mental connection. Risika accepts and takes his knife which contains magic and gives him a scar like he had given her telling him to remember the events of the day, reminding him there is still room for revenge of the deaths of Tora and Alexander.
If you want to know how it ends I guess you'll just have to read the book :)

For it only being about 140 pages and written by a 13 year old, I enjoyed it. ( )
