Varney the Vampire; or, The Feast of Blood by James Malcolm Rymer
3.0
Varney the Vampire is extremely entertaining. I read this over two years ago and I can still picture the beginning scenes. I loved how after Flora screams, the household just stands outside her bedroom, having a panicked conversation, while Varney is inside "slurping" up her lifeblood. In a sparkly vampire obsessed world, this type of quirky vampire story is refreshing.
I don't recommend any extended reading of this book. The sentences/lines go straight across the page, which can get frustrating after a while. Mostly because it's hard to keep track of which line you're on and you can go a bit cross-eyed.
