Hello Team

Juicy: yes the books are about vampires but no not the stereotypical vampire - for me these books are a wonderful love story and no not just for teenagers and young adults, I'm 42 and have read them 5 times now - I just love them.

the vampires are very attractive (in all senses of the word).

it is a book for young adults, so not that complex.

but if you want a page turning romantic read, this is it.

hmmm is it very stereotypical vampire-ish,typical vampire blood sucking etc?
or quite adult, subtle?

a teenage girl from a broken home moves to her dad's having spent most of her life with her loving but childlike mother (flits around, has new boyfriend has moved half way across the country to be with him).

she is shy and awkward and has some self esteem issues.

the town she has moved to is quiet and not very exciting so there is a huge buzz about the new girl starting which she hates.

she is instantly drawn to a mysterious fellow pupil at her highschool. he and his family turn out to be vampires. they fall in love.

the books are about the difficulty of vampire/human love. coming of age. awakening sexuality. and our obsession with sex, death and the lure of the supernatural!
