The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod: Tenth Grade Bleeds by Heather Brewer

This is the third installment in the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod series. Fans from the previous two books can expect to be just as satisfied with this one. The plot is more personal and readers see more of the developing Pravus side of Vlad. Aside from battling the ever-vengeful Diablo and his vampiric minions, Vlad must also contend with his best friend rebuking his drudge status and Vlad's feelings for Meredith. The story is gripping and the action stays fairly constant. Unexpected plot twists send the story and its characters down paths readers won't see coming.
--------------------------------------------------
REVIEW: The story is thrilling, the characters continue to grow and develop, and the readers are pulled more deeply into the growing world of Vladimir Tod. Between the external struggles Vlad must face as the Pravus, there is also a key aspect of his internal struggle of self-realization. Readers will be delighted and won't be able to put it down. 10/10

The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod: Part 2


The adventures of Vladimir Tod continue in this sequel to Eighth Grade Bites. As Vlad discovers more about his own powers, he begins to realize how much a part of both the human world and the vampire world, and yet how much apart. But his training won't come easy, not with a slayer in Bathory. And he might be closer than Vlad thinks...

REVIEW: A remarkable book. Definitely upholds the story I sought as a sequel. Weaves a charming tale of a boy not quite sure where he belongs in the world, but still pulls through thanks to his friends and family. A good read for those interested in the winged and sharp. 10/10

Vladimir Tod is a vampire hybrid living among the people of Bathory. His best friend Henry and his surrogate mom Nelly are the only ones who know. Since the death of his parents, Vlad has been on his own. But his father's legacy seems only to bring him trouble. It seems Vlad's father took something the vampires want back, and they'll do anything to get it....

REVIEW: I absolutely loved this book. It's a gripping tale of a child struggling to live where he doesn't feel he belongs. A tale of friendship, courage, and most of all, family. A marvelous read. 10/10
