Product Description:
When rejection comes back to bite you...
Jordan's life sucks. Her boyfriend, Michael, dumped her, slept his way through half the student body, and then killed himself. But now, somehow, he appears at her window every night, begging her to let him in.
Jordan can't understand why he wants her, but she feels her resistance wearing down. After all, her life -- once a broken record of boring parties, meaningless hookups, and friends she couldn't relate to -- now consists of her drinking alone in her room as she waits for the sun to go down.
Michael needs to be invited in before he can enter. All Jordan has to do is say the words....

Peeps who like vampire romances, dont expect one here. I personally, have never understood vampire romance things, so when I was told to read this, at very first I was a little annoyed, THEN, when I actually read it, IT WAS FABULOUS! It reminded me of some of my friends.

I've been reading a ton of young adult paranormal fiction and this is one of my favorites. This was one of the few that kept me reading with very few stops.

Uninvited is a much darker story than the typical YA vampire fare. Jordan, a troubled teen, is being visited by her ex-boyfriend Michael, now a vampire, who waits outside her window every night begging her to invite him in. This isn't a love story, though. Michael plays the role of a deadly stalker, not a romantic interest. It's pretty clear that even before Michael's undead appearance, Jordan's life was in disarray, and her friends don't seem to be much more stable. Marrone paints a compelling picture of Jordan's further spiral into darkness and depression. As dark as it is, Uninvited has a surprising ending. Recommended for those looking for a slightly different take on the young adult vampire book.

The book looked promising with it's intriguing cover, a title that references an Alanis Morissette song and of course it's the young adult genre, my absolute favorite.
But it was terrible. It dragged on and on for over one hundred pages. The main character claims to have social anxiety, yet she parties hard every night with her friends, makes out and has sex with a different guy each night and is very forward with Danny, a guy she likes at school.
As someone who suffered anxiety disorder in high school, I can tell you that's VERY unrealistic.
Long story short, by day the character goes to school, complains of being anxious and hating her friends. At 5 p.m. every night for three months she sits in her room waiting for her ex boyfriend.
The plot was so boring and fluffy. Also, I didn't understand why the ex-boyfriends motives and attitude change so suddenly. It was just a piece of crap.
I hope the author reads this and makes her follow up novel better. UGH

If you like vampire novels, read Uninvited. If you are tired of vampire novels, read Uninvited. If you never thought you'd like a vampire novel, read Uninvited.
This book tears into the common cliches of the other vampire books on the shelves these days. It's realistic, gritty, heart-wrenching, and very exciting. I couldn't put it down!
Jordan, the heroine, is in a state of deep depression after the death of her ex-boyfriend, Michael. Of course, it doesn't help that Michael visits her windowsill every night, moaning about how much they loved one another and begging her to let him in.
This is not a book about vampires, but rather, a book with vampires in it. It has more in common with a book like SPEAK, by Laurie Halse Anderson, in that it focuses intently on the inner life of a troubled adolescent. Highly recommended!
