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 |

Woot! Summer! Two more half-days left for me! I can't wait to finally be able to stay up late again! I'm always so tired in the morning and awake at night all my life, Auntie. Do you think I could be nocturnal? Creature of the night?
I get out in three weeks and this weekend is a long weekend! Now if only I can survive my classes for that long maybe I can start drawing again!
Does Heather have any plans for her summer? =D
Absolutely, cd!
k8, Auntie Heather is going to Disney World in July for eight days. That mouse will neveer be the same... :)=
Today is the first day os summer vacation, and it's been raining all day!!!! Some summer.
I'm turning 16 in about a month, so that's exciting.
I'm hoping i didn't fail any of my classes. my parents would kill me.

......the sun it burns nooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooo stupid sun i hate it!!!!!!
Sweet! I've never been to Disney World...D: what things was I deprived of?
I am going to SoulFest, which is a huge Christian concert. They have some awesome bands that come, and it gives you a chance to get stuff signed and find new bands. It ROCKS! (but not as much as Vladimir <3)
Happy early birthday, Rachael!!!
Rachel, I find carrying a parasol and bathing in SPF 50 works wonders ;) Also, shade, shade, shade!
Froze: Have fun, hon! I've never been to Disney World either. But there's a Haunted Mansion and a Tower of Terror...how bad could it be? Besides, the kids want to go (y'know, my son Jacob (14), my daughter Alex (7), and Vlad (eternal...unless D'Ablo gets his wish)...). :)=
I will! I believe Flyleaf is going to be there so that will be just awesome. Disney World sounds fun, I mean don't they have rides? That's all I need! (I know Jacob, tell him I said hi! I haven't heard very much about Alex though.) Haha Valdie wanted to go to Disney World. I should so remember that for the story I was working on. ^^
Thanks Heather! :D

I wear SPF 70. 50 doesn't work for me. I have really sensitive skin. I've been to Disney World before. The sun wasn't out, which was awesome. The bad thing was it was raining really hard (but that's ok, I like rain :D). I only have one day left of school (IF I exempt all of my exams), and I will definitly be spreading the vlad love all throughout South Carolina, New York, Virginia, and North Carolina (my grandmother is a very travelly person).
Have a Fangtastic summer!
-Rainbow
Froze: Disney World has Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, which is reported to be like Cedar Point's Demon Drop to the Nth power (plus, I LURVES me some Twilight Zone).
Rainbow: I used to wear 70! But now I can't find any bigger than 50, so there she be. I love Rain too! In fact, my daughter Alex has "Rain" as her middle name. :)=
That sounds awesome! For me just give me any old roller coaster and I'll just keep going on that XD. You know that'd make a good thing for a story too...
Hey, i am going to disney world in august. i cant wait for school to end.
I get out on Thursday. All of my senior friends graduated. It's depressing. Haha, I'll take that sunblock advice to heart! My boyfriend wants me to get a TAN. o_0 It's not right. The sun and I don't like eachother. It just burns me and laughs at my pain. >.< I'm proud of how pale I am. :D Oh, don't worry Auntie, I'll duct tape my friends to chairs and read them Vlad myself! Books to them are like the sun to me. *smirks*
May you stay pale this summer! Lots of love and huggles. Hope to see you in Fairview Heights!
Heather,
I hope you and Vlad have a great summer as well! :*)
Mine will be full of writing and reading. Wish me luck! ;*)
Hi Heather.
Nice bloody blog, here. I like it.
Thanks for dropping by mine when I was complaining about finding your books. Sorry if I sounded negative; it was nothing against you-- since I'd never heard of you or your series until 10 minutes before I wrote the post. And I obviously like the basic premise of your novels. :)
(Hey, if mine ever do get published, at least you'll have the satisfaction of knowing I didn't copy you!)
I'll get copies of your book and read them this summer -- promise! (Just not until next week when school's out.)
Good luck in Texas.
I'll drop by your blog again when I have more time to read everything.
Hey PW - I totally understand your vent. It happens to all of us. (You wouldn't believe how many of my writer friends have run into the exact same problem--but it's worked out each and every time) We're all writers, so we're all in this crazy rat race together.
Looking forward to seeing your stuff on the shelf some day!
Wonderful. :)
We can do a vampire tour together.
Except you'll be famous and I'll be an unknown. Oh well, I'll be your "Opening act" and you can be the "real concert."
this is a good blog..
i hope you all have very good summer this year.. the summer is almost gone by this time...
