It's been awhile since I've read a book with vampires, but I see you didn't LOVE this one. Hmm. I can totally see how/why you'd want a little more depth on those issues, because then they would have felt more realistic. It would have added more conflict and Lindsi https://www.blogger.com/profile/13480991226741687503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2381281230448720689.post-53986480798998398772018-03-21T21:03:11.021+01:002018-03-21T21:03:11.021+01:00I think this could be your thing...😉 Plus, the se...I think this could be your thing...😉 Plus, the second installment will be out next month, and I heard there's some juicy stuff coming!Roberta R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18228840429799100354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2381281230448720689.post-53175735658944973702018-03-21T20:57:49.665+01:002018-03-21T20:57:49.665+01:00The author says he was going for humour as the ove...The author says he was going for humour as the overall tone, and in that respect, he succeeded!Roberta R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18228840429799100354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2381281230448720689.post-29538297077439362872018-03-21T20:56:26.905+01:002018-03-21T20:56:26.905+01:00Yep!

Since this is the first of a series, I daresay the vampire aspects would be explored further down the line, so this sounds good enough- and yay for the family values incorporated!
