House Of Night

Author: Cast, P. C.
This 12-part series took the teenage vampire sub-genre to new levels with its relatively original and relatable plot line. The authors of this series took a tired and overused genre and turned it into an entirely unique tale involving a vampire night school, a young female heroine and an endless series of dramas, involving love, deceit and life or death scenarios. Because of that, it's a worthy series to add to the list of best vampire books.Although this series has enough love triangles to put ‘The Days of Our Lives’ to shame, the far more steamy and heated love affairs of protagonist Zoe and her group of fledgling vampire friends, make for a more mature and juicy read than some of the more juvenile works of vampire fiction pumped out these days.Understand that this is more of a low-brow fantasy and certainly nothing as deep or thoughtful as the more serious treatments of vampires by other authors, the series is regardless, pretty damn fun to read.Although the Cast family has received some very (VERY) mixed reviews for this series due to more than a few misguided statements involving a gay best friend and female sexuality, the overarching story of the book was complex and well-paced, building up to a gripping fight against a greater threat to the House of Night Vampire family in the final novels of the series. The Cast family may have demonstrated just how well they can write like a group of ill-informed and completely judgmental teenagers with this incredibly unusual series, but it is possible to look past the flaws and enjoy this series as a fun, guilty dive into the world of vampirism.Goofy, yes. A Guilty pleasure read, maybe. Something you should read if you want Days of Our Lives, 'The Vampire Edition'? Absolutely.
