It's about a family of vampires who seek social acceptance. It's laugh out loud funny, but it also pokes fun at the tendency of modern authors to 'romanticize' vampires. It's not in the least bit scary, except for it's brutal exposition of human hypocrisy, but it's well worth a read even if it doesnt meet your Halloween criteria:-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592307094236206281.post-25137278292527643602011-10-08T23:37:51.773+01:002011-10-08T23:37:51.773+01:00Sounds interesting, despite my fear of vampires. ...Sounds interesting, despite my fear of vampires.
