Ninth Grade Slays Review

Do you want a funny and action-packed story? I personally love when the author themselves have children the age of the protagonist because it provides a real unique quality to the story. In the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod by Heather Brewer, she has a couple of boys around the same age as the main character and sidekick. That another interesting fact about novels is most young adult novels have the best minor characters because in most case I always love the minor character and the main character is a 50-50 chance of me hating the character.

Here is an another book part of a series for review, The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod: Ninth Grade Slays by Heather Brewer. For the people who can't determine what this is about from the cover or character name this novel is about vampires. What I like about this vampire series is that Vlad is true blue teenager and not 300 something year old playing a teen. Vlad has to go through puberty just like any normal boy, but he has the added pressure of controlling his blood lust. The story seems original, but some plot elements seem a little cliche. However the characters of Vlad and Henry make up for it with their charm and general naivety. Overall, I gave this book five stars because its funny, catchy and a fast-pace read. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. This has been your surrogate crazy signing off, live in let live.
