Faking It

A few days ago, I got an ARC in the mail from Little, Brown. BLOODTHIRSTY by Flynn Meaney. And I love, love, LOVE the cover blurb: "Edward. Stefan. Bill. Finbar. Finbar?"

BLOODTHIRSTY is not your average vampire novel. Rather, it's about a geeky teenage boy who's allergic to the sun, thin, gaunt-looking... In fact, he kind of looks like the vampires on the covers of books. When he realizes that girls his age are hot for those same vampires, the ones that look like him, he develops a plan to make everyone believe he's a vampire too.

I had a lot of fun reading this book. You're really rooting for Finbar and at the same time wondering when it's all going to go wrong. It's a funny, clever story about how far a boy will go to get girls. And maybe how he'll find his real self in the end. I definitely recommend it.
