Teenage vampire AJ Ashe is having the worst year ever. Her boyfriend is now her stepbrother. She may have accidentally turned her rebound hookup into a vampire. Someone’s framing her for everything from cheating on tests to getting a little too close to a teacher, and her two best friends are feuding with one another. Oh, and her long-out-of-the-picture father was apparently one of the Bad Sort of vampires. Can AJ unravel this mess and figure out what her role in all of this is, or is she a pawn in something large and sinister? Though convoluted and resembling a soap opera (or sitcom), there’s an undeniable sense of quirky attitude and fun present all the same. Unfortunately, a lot of the questions raised here will have to wait for the inevitable sequel for their answers.
