“The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod: Eighth Grade Bites” by Heather Brewer

Yes, my faithful readers, it’s yet another vampire book. This one, however, I really liked, and I know you will too. I rank it on par with the House of Night and Twilight books – there’s humor, school, friends. There’s also bending of the vampire rules, but they make logical sense in this one.

Vladimir Tod is the son of a mortal woman and a vampire man. His parents are dead, mysteriously killed in a house fire 3 years prior to the book, so he lives with Aunt Nelly. His best friend is Henry, and they have been friends all their lives. When Vlad’s teacher disappears and a strange man comes to town to take his place, odd happenings occur, all having to do with Vlad. Will he figure it out before his friends and family are caught up in the dangerousness?

I give this one a 9 out of 10, so if you can find a copy, read it!
