This is a novella/short story in the Morganville Vampires world. I haven't read any of the other books in the series, as I prefer to read things in chronological order as opposed to publication order. That being said, I think this story did a great job of stoking my interest in the series and making me want more. I can't wait to read more in this world and find out what happens to Eve and what's different about this Michael character, and even how vampires in this world differ from other series with vampires that I've read. Great job by the author getting that much information and creating that much of a desire for more in just 20 short pages. ( )

The First Day of the Rest of Your Life - Rachel Caine - 3.5 Stars - My goodness Michael is sweet. There's nothing like a guy who knows how to cheer you up after a beyond crap day. ( )

Loved this prequel! I've read books 1 & 2 in the series but it was nice to see how Eve and Michael became roommates and to learn more of Eve's story. I can't wait to read more of these books!
