Eighth Grade Bites

Eighth Grade Bites is by Heather Brewer. The first book in The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod series. Vlad is half human, half vampire; his parents were killed in a fire and he is living with his mother's best friend who does her best to help him integrate with regular human life. Vlad has typical 13-year-old problems: a pack of bullies at school, a principal who dislikes him, a girl he wants to ask out. When a substitute teacher's questions hit a little too close to home, Vlad begins to wonder if his parents' deaths were really an accident. A great new series for those who really enjoyed Cirque Du Freak.

Ratings: 8th grade - 9 out of 10 - MP (mild profanity) - V (violence).
