  1. I still can t believe the story ended the way it did Just thinking about it makes me laugh.Whether the ending was brilliant or stupid, you be the judge of that.

  4. As I was reading this short story, I kept thinking, Oh, this is going to be so predictable I was SO wrong about that Kristin and her friend, Liz, are on a cruise that was gifted to them from their parents after graduation Time alone on a cruise to nowhere seriously, this ship just cruises around the ocean, no stops , they re on the prowl for cute boys Especially Kristin, who thinks it s time to finally take the next step in her life And her and her friend think that having a one time stand with [...]

  5. I decided to read Cruisin because I loved 10 Things We Did and Probably Shouldn t Have Even though both were written by Sarah Mlynowski, be aware that they are nothing alike Crusin did not have the same comical air as 10 Things We Did Instead, it was paranormal which was not something I was expecting from one of my favorite contemporary authors.At first, it s hard to tell if there is something truly paranormal in the story, or if the girl s are just being silly for believing in Vampires Since th [...]

  6. A cruise ship, and vampires sold I don t know why, but I found this comical and interesting and I had to know what this short story was going to be about I will say this book was not at all what I was excepting It s one of those great short stories that leads you to believe that one thing is going to happen and than throws in this fabulous twist that had me thinking no way and how did I not see that one coming I ll be honest, I almost stopped reading the book It s not that I didn t like it, it s [...]

  7. This was such a fun and entertaining story This is very short, but packs a lot in to those few pages It starts with two friends on a cruise ship, Liz and Kristin couldn t be different Kristin is just your average girl, and a little on the shy side Liz on the other hand is totally hot, totally confident, and very outgoing Kristin is determined to do it on this 3 day cruise, she just needs to find the right guy All the talk of vampires on cruise ships and people disappearing ends up being an unde [...]

  8. I liked it It was a fun, short read between books and it surprised me I would ve liked it if the characters weren t your typical, cookie cutter young adult girls guys I also would ve liked the story to have a bit depth I know I know it s a short fun read but still just saying only because it s a short story and that means EVERY WORD SENTENCE COUNTS but these are just little criticisms.I d recommend this as fun, laid back read to kill an hour or couple of minutes if you re not distracted easily [...]

  9. Cruisin was a nice little surprise I decided to read this in between books and I must say I really enjoyed it Kristin is on this cruise with her best friend Liz, and she has one goal to accomplish on this trip and that is the next step to do it.Well, I thought this story was going to be so predictable.Girl goes on cruise, meets guy, and it progresses from there, but it will surprise you.This is the perfect story to read in between books, or if you re just looking for something short and sweet to [...]

  10. This was a cute story, and an easy read I m a big fan of Ten Things We Did, and this story is very similar in style However, even though the characters mention vampires, I didn t really expect the fantasy element to be real The buildup to the conclusion was great, with excellent character development, but then the story justended I thought it was a bit abrupt Overall, this was a fun story, just not what I was expecting.

  11. It is a short story that is pretty bor in with just hanging out by the pool trying to pickup guys It doesn t have much told about the charcters and had little development in the storyline The only thing that really keeps it interesting is the vampire aspect, but that was very predictable.
