Bite Me, by Melissa Francis

This is one of those books where the main character's entire life falls apart in a week. AJ's week starts off with her mom marrying her boyfriend's dad, effectively breaking up her and her boyfriend (who are very much still in love. What kind of parents would do that?). Her best friends hate each other and AJ, who is a vampire, thinks she might have turned a guy from her school who is thought dead into one. And then, this same undead guy decides to stalk and terrorize her. Lovely week, huh?

I actually enjoyed the book even though after reading one chapter I though I wouldn't. AJ's complaints weren't annoying--they actually seemed genuine and she actually wanted to solve her problems. She wasn't insecure but she wasn't arrogant. Her family was a little generic but adorable nonetheless. But her mom was too good and too nice. Way too nice.

4 stars--too teenagerish for 5 stars, wouldn't appeal to anyone over the age of 17
