What People Are Saying About 'Eighth Grade Bites'
"A spooky mystery that's funny, gruesome, heartwarming, spellbinding,
sad, joyous, surprising and topped off with a tasty blend of blood and
chocolate. Yum. What more could you ask for?" ~D.J. MacHale,
New York Times-bestselling author of PENDRAGON: JOURNAL OF AN ADVENTURE
THROUGH TIME AND SPACE
"'Eighth grade Bites' had me on the edge of my seat. It's a
great piece of fiction. It drops you right into the action, grabs
you by the throat (pun intended), and won't let go. Vladimir Tod
is a truly sympathetic character cursed with an existence not of
his own doing, but doing his best to do the right thing. It's part
'Goosebumps' mixed with 'Harry Potter' and a dash – no, a heaping
tablespoon – of Stephen King. If you're in eighth grade, or
a vampire, or an eighth grade vampire, 'Eighth Grade Bites' is a
definite must read!"~Butch Hartman, creator of Nickelodeon's
THE FAIRLY ODD PARENTS and DANNY PHANTOM
"Eighth Grade Bites is a terrific vampire tale told with a
sharp, middle-school grin. It definitely does not bite!" ~Christopher
Moore, author of BLOODSUCKING FIENDS and A DIRTY JOB
"Eighth Grade Bites is a delightful novel filled with dark,
biting humor that will appeal to everyone who ever felt they were
different. A deft hand at depicting the angst of teen years, Heather
Brewer does a wonderful job blending vampire legend with the modern
day horror that strikes fear in the heart of so many: the eighth
grade."~Katie MacAlister, New York Times-bestselling author
of EVEN VAMPIRES GET THE BLUES
"Heather Brewer has invented the most endearing of vampires
in Vlad, an eighth grader juggling the woes of adolescence with the
decidedly unique difficulties of being a vampire. She perfectly captures
the humor and angst of eighth grade, mixed with a nail-biting adventure.
Utterly charming and irresistible!" ~Liza Conrad, author of
HIGH SCHOOL BITES: THE LUCY CHRONICLES
"This book will fool you. Just when you think you've identified
it as a story lit by the cheery glow of a slightly scary jack-o-lantern,
it becomes something else -- a tale told by the flickering light
of a dying campfire late at night. And the shadows are very dark
indeed. A surprising mix of humor and horror." ~Douglas
Rees, author of VAMPIRE HIGH
"Fresh and fast-paced, with just the right brew of chills and
laughs. I’m looking forward to finding out what happens when
Vlad hits Grade Nine." ~Nancy Baker, author of KISS OF THE
VAMPIRE
"A fabulous book from a gifted storyteller! I never wanted
it to end." ~Gena Showalter, author of OH MY GOTH |

You know you have an open invitation to visit... and the beach is only a short drive away :)
You need one of those fleece body sacks that I believe come from Lands End... and heated gloves for writing.
Fingerless gloves
Hot Chocolate with a shot of Godiva Liquer
And, ewoh....:P for you and your beach ;)

The only thing I'm missing is the Godiva liquer...
I feel like a writing hobo.
We've been in a deep freeze for weeks! Yesterday we had a windchill of - 36C...tomorrow its supposed to be a scorching +1C...talk about a mad switch!
Girlfriend, get yourself some toasty slippers, a good cozy shawl to leave at the writing desk and a polar fleece sweater...then you'll be set!
I'm saving my pesos to get a coffee maker for my writing desk...I'm too damn lazy and cold to go down stairs to reheat!
Nic ;-D
Brrr, Nic, that makes me colder just reading it! Today I'm adding fluffy socks and seriously looking into that shawl. The cold makes me ache--always has.
Ooooh, Devon, you're my hero! :-*
Have you seen the warming vest and gloves they featured on HGTV's "I want that!"? I get toasty just thinking about them.
Ha, you think it's cold there? It's just as cold, if not colder, back here at home.
By the way...Your parents are my grandma's neighbors. Just thought you should know that. I'm sure you know my uncles. :) not to creep you out or anything but its true . :)
Hi, me! Okay, that creeps me out a little. :)
Who exactly are you?
haha..sorry. um...you may know my uncles: wade beebe and matt beebe?
That last one was me!! by the way. I forgot my password. lol.
Those names sound vaguely familiar...but honestly, I haven't lived in Michigan for eight years now, and have only briefly been back since I left (like four times total). :)
