My Familiar Stranger- Romancing the Vampire Chapters 1-4 Summary/ Feedback

Summary:

This story seems to be, at least so far, about a love that can extend beyond dimensions. It begins with the arrival of Elora into a strange new dimension (the human world) after having to make a quick departure from her dimension because of the murder of her family. She arrives inches away from death, as a result from her inter-dimensional travel, and is mended back to health while befriending the man who took her to help and saved her life, Storm. It also just so happens, that the place she arrived in was a top secret military order that specialized in paranormal threats and that Storm works for this facility. Now Storm and Elora seem to have a crush on each other but their positions, his being his line of work, hers being her alien viewpoint might create some barriers in their foreshadowed love. Elora is literally an extraterrestrial being, and her fate is to be decided by the order. As of right now she cannot be sent back... but what will occur if she stays?

Feedback:

The characters are very interesting and the story line is not one I have heard of yet which is very good. And the author mixes a good amount of action and mystery together to create the basis for the novel. But honestly.... it's predictable. Maybe it's just that I read too many books like this or maybe that I just analyze everything and think too way ahead. But I am pretty sure I already know how the book is going to end. It is a common boy meets girl, they fall in love, they face an epic obstacle, but in the end love conquers all and they end up together. Although, I don't think I really mind, I am a sucker for reading about the epic obstacle and following the endless wave of couples who end up together after facing the impediment, and winning of course. Anyways, so far it seems like it will be a good book with some refreshing characters and an interesting take on the common love story.

If you were to create notes to help you remember the most important points from your reading, what style of notes (lists, outlines, thought bubbles or webs, etc.) would you use and why?

Thought bubbles, no doubt about it. They allow me to come up with questions and branch off from that question or it allows me to keep several notes on one event in the story or a character.
