Author: Christopher Moore
Genre: Fantasy
Julia Rating: 9 (for humor)My Comments:
This book had me laughing my socks off. I read it while on vacation in Italy (on the plane, then in Rome between tours). I probably should have read Roman history or something instead, but this book was so darn funny! It’s about a girl named Jody who becomes a vampire because this really old vampire assults her and makes her one – a game he plays every once in a while. She has to find a way to survive – though the bad guy (the old vampire) doesn’t want her to. In the process she meets C. Thomas Flood (Tommy to his friends) and they hook up.
Christopher Moore has some wonderful and wacky characters in this book that are so much fun. Also, he describes San Fransisco like a pro – and since I’m from there, I love it.
The only negative thing I could say about this book as that the composition isn’t great and sometimes it’s hard to follow along. But, because it was so funny, I give it a nine.
