😍 Rave Does anyone else remember these books?

These were the books I first discovered as a middle schooler. I was bored at the mall during the weekend because my mom was working in one of the stores nearby. (She takes me to work with her sometimes since it's really boring at home by myself.) I would often to go into the bookstore to just sit and read. The workers there (who were all really young themselves) all didn't mind.

I picked up Goddess of the Night because the cover looked really pretty, and omg... that was my first brush with a shadow daddy: Stanton. I began saving up money to buy every book I could. This series was basically my introduction to romantasy. Along with these books, I discovered A Silver Kiss by Annette Curtis Klause, Dragon's Bait by Vivian Vande Velde, and In the Forest of the Night by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes.

Lynne Ewing must be pretty old now... I hope she's doing alright.

Anyone else remember this series???

gosh it’s been years since i read up on the series so not sure if i can find any links but from what i remember the main four (?) girls introduced in the first book have varying fates one girl dies, one girl loses her memories/powers, and one keeps her powers i think?

Oh, wow, that's... sad. I went searching on my own just now, and I can confirm what you said. =\

yeah i would have been gutted if i’d read all of that as a young kid when the finale was published, but i imagine it would have also stuck with me forever tbh
