by Christopher Moore was just what I needed. A comedy. All of the books I have been reading lately have been pretty serious and if you have read one of Moore's books you will know he is all but serious :) The story is about vampires and more excitingly an original twist to the vampire story. While keeping with much of the vampire lore the story is more about the relationship that the main characters Jody and Tommy develop. Similar to a Dracula and Renfield relationship but a much more amusing one. The story has a dark comedy feel to it and at times can get rather gruesome but even the most gruesome parts are broken by a sarcastic comment that leaves the reader laughing at the situation. What amazes me about Bloodsucking Fiends though, as in his other books as well, the story line is up beat, gory and humorous but always ends up with a heart warming ending that makes you smile when you finish the book. Moore is a wonderful writer and is very unique...like the way I want my books to be (if I ever end up actually finishing writing one). I am a huge fan and have not been disappointed yet.For more info or more of my amazing opinions.... comment below...that would be fun, right?
