Customer Reviews
I fully enjoyed this classic Gothic novel
I fully enjoyed this classic Gothic novel, combining horror, death, and romance. The added benefit of Venice as a character in this book further enticed me to read it. It didn’t take long before I discovered the meaning of the title, “Forever Young.”
My favorite part of the book is the relationship between Violetta and Sebastian.
Spolier Alert: The back story of how Violetta turns Sebastian into a vampire, and patiently teaches him to live as such could be its own book. The depth of vampire training and explanation by Barbara Stanzl is the most comprehensive and descriptive I’ve read.
I enjoyed Jasmine’s friendship with Violetta, and their adventures together.
“Forever Young” proved to be an enjoyable escape, and worthy of my recommendation.
