I Am Not a Vampire (Anymore)

Being a teenager bites--literally. When a classmate develops a thirst for blood, one girl must confront her secret supernatural past before things turn deadly. Sink your teeth into this dark and hilarious YA debut from an award-winning author.

Her past is back for blood.

My goals for senior year were simple:

• Find a prom dress I don't hate
• Spend as much time as possible with my amazing boyfriend Max (and my even more amazing best friend Sarita)
• Maybe try not to flunk history class

My plans did NOT include:

• Babysitting a newborn vampire--who also happens to be Max's annoying (and annoyingly cute) buddy Ezra
• Fighting off my ex-boyfriend--who did I mention is immortal?
• And generally worrying about death and blood and mayhem

Turning human was supposed to mean finally getting a second chance at a normal life. But ever since moving to Sunrise Harbor, Florida, nothing has been normal. What's worse is I actually made friends here. And when my dark past threatens to take it all away, well, being mortal totally sucks.

Award-winning author Darcy Miller makes her YA debut in this wise-cracking and witty entry that brings new blood to your favorite vampire tropes.
