Review: Vladimir Tod: Eighth Grade Bites by Heather Brewer



Vladimir Tod was a perfectly normal student, if you take away the fact of him being an eighth grade vampire! He wasn’t popular at all, but his best friend was. With the added bonus of having a crush on the most popular girl in school, and a couple of bullies harassing him, this alone would add up to a very busy eighth grade year! But that would be too easy, and nothing’s that easy for Vlad. So instead of having a fun, relaxing eighth grade year, seeing the teachers that he has know for a few years and having to say goodbye to them, his regular teacher is declared missing and a substitute named Mr.Otis Otis takes over. 

Vlad feels that there is something unusual about Mr. Otis, especially when he starts to ask Vlad weird questions and gives him assignments that could reveal who Vlad really is to the entire class (such as: hand out the garlic to the rest of the class or, write a journal entry from the point of view of a vampire). 

With crushing on Meredith, controlling his bloodlust, keeping his secret a secret, getting the weird substitute off his trail, and doing everything with only the help of the 2 people who know his secret (his best friend and his aunt Nelly), Vladimir has his work cut out for him this year. The only question that remains is... has Vlad bitten off more than he can chew?
