Bloodsucking Fiends by Christopher Moore
3.0
Jody’s life is changed forever one night when she is attacked outside of her office building in San Francisco. She wakes up two days later under a dumpster to realize she has become a vampire. She befriends C. Thomas Flood, an aspiring author, who thinks Jody’s vampirism is “awesome” and falls immediately in love with her. Together they attempt to avoid detection even as the vampire who changed Jody leaves dead, bloodless bodies around their building to put the cops on their trail.
I thought Bloodsucking Fiends was an entertaining book, but it did have some problems. Anyone seeking something a little more realistic will be disappointed by the crazy shenanigans in this book. It also struck me as false that everyone in this book from the main characters to a freezer salesman who appears once is very witty. It almost comes off as a sitcom. However, it is a fun read if you find yourself in the mood for something light and comical.
