What a great title, and exactly what you would expect of vampires with their superior strength, looks, and abilities. However, it isn't just us humans they feel superior too, oh no, if you're a female vamp, and one of the Sventé vamps as well, you're on the bottom of the totem pole. Unless your gift is a Feeder. A Feeder "can feed on the energy around them; absorb it and control it. Very rare.”

Samantha (Sam) Parker has been a vamp for 3 yrs, her sire Victor, a cruel and disgusting maggot. Victor ...more

How could you be attracted to someone who made you so pissed off that you’d considered burning their balls with a lighter?

The synopsis sounds so effin't amazing, as well as the reviews and I just had to give it a go. HERE BE SEXIST VAMPIRES was quite the book and I did like it, but me being me I did have my issues with it.

The synopsis sounds so effin't amazing, as well as the reviews and I just had to give it a go. HERE BE SEXIST VAMPIRES was quite the book and I did like it, but me being me I did have my issues with it. But, basically we have Sam Parker who get recruited to be in the Grand High Master Vampire’s private army. And we have this sexist Commander Vampire, Jared Micheals, who has a big problem with women.

I would've liked this book more if they characters grew up way before almost the end of the book. First, let's talk about Sam. She has been through a lot. Her sire is pig. He turned her because he wanted her and used her basically as a sex slave and since she has these special gifts that are so rare he wanted her because of that. Her three years of a vampire and being in hell has made her a tough cookie. But she's a tortured soul.

Same and Jared have this connection when they first meet. You know the hate/love relationship. At a point Sam accuses Jared of being just like her sire. So wrong. I feel like she didn't do any character growth through this book. I know she was tortured and still afraid to really be with someone, but she is letting that rule her life and in books, I just want my character to grow up and change a little bit.

She had kicked my ass, embarrassed me in front of God knows how many people, and even called me a pretty girl...and all I’d wanted to do was grab her, kiss her and bite her.

Don't get me started on Jared. I expected so much more out of him. He was way too childish for way too long for me. He did change for Sam to pursue her and all. But he gave her such a hard time at the beginning of the book and still in the middle it seemed, til almost the mid-end. I liked him when he finally grew up, but it took too long. And in my opinion he is still sexist.

I did enjoy watching the relationship between these two and the sexual tension. It was hot. And I loved all the side characters. My problem was character immaturity and the growth. As well as everything just too long to process. And everything gets totally resolved and processed right at the end. I liked the concept of HERE BE SEXIST VAMPIRES, but it wasn't great. I will give the second a try since I still liked the characters in some extent and the plot of this series.

Reminded me of Cat and Bones from Jeaniene Frost's Night Huntress series, though nothing can be that great.
Anyways, it's similar in the vampire female fighting and the vamp guy and all, but it kind of dragged for me because there were lots of parts describing how she's teaching the new recruits, their lessons, training and etc... I really couldn't differ between them except Max.
It wasn't something that you'll remember for a long time, but you'll enjoy it. ...more
