My favorite vampire book that isn't Salem's Lot. Such great writing, and a wonderful story. Unless you turn up your nose just because something has a vampire in it, there is so much to love here.
Angela Lovell has an uncanny knack for characterization and dialogue. I truly hope there will be more books in this series.

I absolutely loved this book. It was gripping and engrossing with interesting characters and totally believable dialogue. I got my copy from a GoodReads giveaway and thought it might be interesting but it turned out to be more than that. The story totally hooked me right away with it's straight to the point plot. The plot involves a young man looking for his sister who happens to be involved with vampires. After Twilight I haven't bothered with much vampire fiction since it's been watered down

Good story!

I read this after reading the author's short collection of essays, Mouseschawitz. These are VERY different books but solid in their genres. Blood Drunk was pretty clever for a YA vampire book. Really enjoyed the vampires in the subway and it's not too romantic - a lot of action. I'll definitely read the others in this series.
