This is the first of the Queen Betsy series and it’s one very memorable week for Betsy Taylor. It starts off as the worst day in history but then only seems to get worse.
At least Betsy makes light of the situation. It seems all fun and games despite her misery. It doesn’t take long for her to realize she is now a vampire. Though none of the stereotypes and vampire clichés seem to hold true. It’s nothing like the movies at all!
She doesn’t need to sleep in coffins or underground, she doesn’t need to drink blood all the time nor does she really find the urge to. She can’t seem to kill herself despite numerous attempts. She can’t eat food anymore, but she also doesn’t need the bathroom so I suppose there are plusses. There are good vamps and bad vamps and all of them want to show Betsy the ropes of being a vampire, or just kill her for non-compliance.
She has her friends and her mom for full support and she meets some other vampires that take her under their wing, even though she really doesn’t want to be there. Her dad is still spineless and his wife is just as arrogant. So not everything changes after death.
It’s not long before Betsy is haled Queen of the Vampires, and like it or not she has to deal with that too.
I absolutely loved this book! It was so funny and sarcastic that I just couldn’t put it down. It’s a very light read, and although it’s yet another vampire book on my very long list, it was quite refreshing. I will read the rest of the series for sure, but I urge you to read this one. If you dislike it, than you can take a pass on the series, but if you like a reckless female heroine, this is the story for you.
