After Helena's last review a few weeks back, and Welcome to the Universe the following week, I was pleasantly surprised that The Not So Secret Life of Helena Callahan earned itself another review by a dedicated fan.

First up, Australian reader Kyle Seymour reviews “The Not So Secret Life of Helena Callahan” by Emma Lowe.
Looking for a story that you can really sink your teeth into? Well, get sucked into this! ‘The Not So Secret Life of Helena Callahan’ allows you to enter the twisted world that is Helena Callahan’s life, and is unlike any other vampire related story that I have ever read before! This is mainly because in this alluring vampiric tale (which strategically mixes both witches and werewolves into the plot) the vampires are actually blood thirsty creatures of the night—but in a way that’s both captivating and believable.
This unique story puts a modern twist into the old styled blood lusting vampires that take us back to the good old days of Dracula, only this teenage drama is based around a growing war between two worlds, one of which Helena unwillingly gets sucked into, as she is forced to choose between being good and evil.
Even though newly found author Emma Lowe, only just recently joined the Wattpad community, and started posting her books onto Wattpad, they are spreading like a wildfire! With each coming day, this author is growing with reads, votes, and hounded with comments asking for more.
What I love most about this story, is that the main character is never intended to be good. Sure, she can be good, and does have her moments. But, most of the time she is just as evil and twisted as the story and vampiric characters that she is surrounded by. The Not So Secret Life of Helena Callahan, though it isn’t really a love story, it does have the weirdest love triange (or possibly love square) that I have ever read about. It’s definitely most intriguing, as are Emmiie’s creative characters that really bring the story to life.
