No, I won’t turn this review into another tirade about sparkling vampires, rather I will compliment the author on creating a vampire breed similar to Bram Stoker, and yet slightly different. I love the elements placed into his own brand of vampire lore, including the origin story. For this reason, I’m now a fan!
Joseph is a college geek who can’t seem to break out of his shy, quiet shell. Cassandra, however, finds the perfect way to do just that and forever alters Joseph’s future. Naturally, there are a few kinks to adjusting to a new lifestyle, and naturally there are foes to kill.
Author Charles O’Keefe takes a geek and turns him into… a vampire geek. Thank you, O’Keefe, for not falling into the cliche by turning Joseph into a suave lady killer. Joseph’s utter geekiness makes him a lovable character, and holds my attention throughout the novel. And thank you, also, for the little surprises that made me laugh out loud.
I do wish the book was longer, I wish he added a little more tension between Cassandra and Joseph, but I give the book 4 stars for being genuine. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading NA or vampire novels. Be prepared to laugh!
