Peeps by Scott Westerfeld
5.0
I read this book way back when I was in high school. It was the only Scott Westerfeld book in the school library I hadn't read yet, but I didn't know if I really wanted to read a book about vampires. After a few weeks, the urge to read another Scott Westerfeld novel beat out my dislike of the vampire genre, and I am so happy it did!
Peeps is not your traditional vampire story. The vampires are turned by a parasite and referred to as "parasite - positive" or peeps for short. Each chapter begins with the description of a parasite (and I found each fascinating). I'm also a huge fan of Scott Westerfeld's writing style. The way he writes combined with the stories he writes keep me addicted and hanging on to every word. Peeps was just like the others - his excellent style combined with a great story make this one one of my favorites.
Peeps is the reason I have since read several vampire books and I have to say, Peeps is still my favorite. I did like Dead Until Dark (The first of the Southern Vampire Mystery series), but absolutely, positively hated Twilight.
