Eighth Grade Bites by Z Brewer

4.0

What starts out as a potentially tongue-in-cheek vampire book morphs into something much more serious and exciting! Eighth grader, Vlad Tod, is the child of a vampire father and human mother who are no longer living. Vlad lives with his aunt Nelly, eats raw meat and drinks 'expired' blood bags Nelly can score from the hospital. He has okay grades, tries to steer clear of bullies, and is working on getting up the courage to ask out the gorgeous Meredith. Pretty standard stuff, that is until a favorite teacher goes missing and the mysterious Otis Otis appears as the substitute teacher. Everything Vladimir thought was true in his life will change dramatically in a few short pages of this first installment of The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod: Eighth Grade Bites.

Lots of bloody fun for middle-school boys who could care less about froo froo, frilly vampires and their soap-opera love stories!
