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 |

Luv Always AVL.

And yes, D'ablo very creepy.
Jess
So... it's only on Myspace?
If you don't have MySpace, fear not! I'm happy to talk about the books here as well. :)
So...who are your favorite characters?
my fav. character (of course) is Vlad. Henrey is cool tho too.
today was my first day of high school! mine was better then vlads. :P
I love to talk TO Vlad, I'd love to see what kind of thing would happen if he met someone like me.
BUT talking about Vlad is almost just as cool.
I have to say that if I had to pick who I like more, as of now, between Vlad and Edward...it'd be Vlad.
Why?
Well Twilight has become a bit too crazy with the fans and such and I'm happy with the minion horde. So far it seems that not everyone is losing their heads and such and it just makes it a lot easier to enjoy the books.
I don't know, guess I'm weird like that...
Oh! Plus since Vlad is always waring sunblock I imagine him smelling like that nice Banana Boat sunblock...
(Now that must be included in that story I'm writing...)
Alright... I better take a break before I end up writing an essay about Vlad instead of that poem I need to write about for English!
PS. Tell Vladimir I said thanks for getting me into English Honors.
yeah I agree with you on the twilight thing. My favorite character is Vlad, but Henry is right up there too :)=
My favorite is Vlad, of course. I've only read the first book, and my schoo AND city libraries don't carry Vlad's story! I have to buy them with my parents and my own money! It really SUCKS! And Breaking Dawn sucked alot too.
Vlad is so awesomeness. :3 (I'm too lazy to actually go on my Myspace) I know sooo many vampires. Dimitri, Edward, Jasper, Damon, Stefan. I'm a little vampire freak. But I just love Vladimir. He is just so awesome and it's nice to have someone go through life in high school, without really progressing so much in a story. I hope Vlad doesn't have anymore people trying to kill him after this....
it would be cool if Vlad had met another vampire, like someone that would actually be there for him. Buuuutttt...it's your book. I can't tell you what to do.
Sooooo my favorat charactor is (i just cant help it) Vlad :)= but henry is close, Vlads probertly my fav for a loto reasons and one of them has to be cuz ima in love wit him :)
so there r like never any kid/teen Vampires in Elysia? like i didnt get if any drugdes were kid/teens either :( like i didnt get if our Russain friend's drugde was an adult or not.
Vlad is just so Dangerous
:)=
Luv AVL.
I like Vlad and Henry pretty nicely.
And RJ does not have nor want a Myspace. That is why she asked.
One vampire no one seems to have been crazy about for a couple years; Count Dracula.
My favorite vampire(naturally) is an original character of my own.
I Think she ment from the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod :)=
Omg i forgot to ask (when ever u get the chance can u answer even if u just right it on here or say it when ur wrighting a new blog) if people can send fang mail and minion mail (fang like letters and minion like material stuff or u deside which ones which) to the address to get minion bling? cuz i didnt knw if u could send like stuff to that adress or its only for minion bling -_-
Thanx a million!
Luv Always and Always Will Be A Minion AVL.
most of my crushes a vampires: Vlad, Edward, and Alexander(from the Vampire Kisses series)
the others are: (this is so sad,but) Sasuke Uchiha, and L Lawliet. yes all my crushes a fictional.
i love vlad soooo much. he's like...one of my main obsessions, along with sasuke and itachi uchiha, and gaara...there all sooo cool!!! =3
Oh. BTW: I could draw one of the covers of The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod OR what I perseve Vlad to look like. However, I have no real way of showing it to you. ): I could send it on myspace, but I'm a dense idiot on myspace...so I don't really know how it works....I could take a picture of it, put it in photobucket, and message the link to you on Myspace...but I don't know if you'd get the link. Oh well.
Yeah, Vlad's my fave too. My second fave is Otis. He's just a lot of fun to spend time with. :)=
You can always mail me anything you'd like to the address in the sidebar!
So...show of hands: how many believe Vlad is the Pravus? How many believe he's not?
Well i believe he's not :! cuz even tho all those things that happend to him i still think he isnt cuz i just couldnt imagan him inslaving people ;0 but there ur books and i have noooooo clue what ur up 2 Auntie Heather!!!!!
Thanx! i just wanted to know if i could :) i didnt want to send like letters or stuff to an address ima not supposed 2 ;)
Luv Always and Always Be A Minion AVL.
P.S i guess i have good timing when to go on ur website :)
I'm not sure what I think...if Vlad is really the Pravus then I think he'll be changing the prophesy. I could never see Vlad enslaving mankind...
I'm not sure. He could be, but he would never enslave mankind. He would change it, or something.
OMG that's a toughie, but I would have to agree with the other people who are saying that if Vlad is the Pravus he would NOT enslave mankind, he would change the prophecy. Still it is your book Auntie Heather so I'll still love it all the same! <3
vlad? a pravus?! no one as cool and as hot as vlad could ever be a pravus...or could he??? these are the questions that haunt me @ night...if he was a pravus, i'll be his drudge!!! =3
hehe. So cute.
The pravus question: It seems to be that he is the Pravus. There is evidence that he IS one. :3
UNLESS, another character comes out and is half human as well.
Well, IF Vlad is the Pravus, who's to say that he won't follow the prophecy? Does he have a choice but to enslave humankind and rule over all of Elysia?
All I will say is that there are only a few tests to see whether or not he really is the Pravus, and that he will face the biggest of those in TENTH GRADE BLEEDS. ;)
oh auntie Heather i have a little question for you!
ok so im moving to Greece and i wan wondering if the chronicles got sold over their or not?!?!
but its cool if they dont!
and...uhh
OH yes i think that valdy should meat a nice vamp girl to be a friend...or dear i say...more?! i guess i do LOL
but its your series not mine ;)=
Love lots of bunches Raven
Is Bathory a made up town?
Oh my gosh :0 this is CRULTY! and Agany waiting soooo long :0 i meen and now i have 2 wait and now with Vlad -might-mightnot- be the Pravis? Oh my gosh, Ima gonna faint!
I think that act-u-ly i dont knw what i think now that u -Auntie Heather- said that about the Pravis thing:)=
Luv AVL.
"Well, IF Vlad is the Pravus, who's to say that he won't follow the prophecy? Does he have a choice but to enslave humankind and rule over all of Elysia?"
I do believe Vlad would have the choice to do what he wants. I mean no one can make him do anything...especially if he is the Pravus..besides maybe Aunt Nelly XD
Raven - I really doubt it will be available in Greece, HOWEVER...it's always available online, so you can continue to buy from Barnes & Noble, Borders, and Amazon online. Good luck with your move!
Anonymous - sadly, the town of Bathory exists only in my imagination.
AVL - Hnag in there, minion. ;)
K8 - you almost made me shoot Pepsi out of my nose!!! Yeah, Pravus or not, Aunt Nelly will always have the final say, I think. ;)
Okay I has a question for you Auntie Heather!!! I know that this is a random question, but I'm totally obsessed with music, and your books of course, so I was wondering what kind of music does Vlad listen to??? Thanks again Auntie Heather
P.S. Just to let you know, 'cause I feel like it, my favorite band is My Chemical Romance!!! ^^
Hey, I just wanted to say that the picture of you glomping Sweeney Todd on your MySpace is soooo cute!!! <3 I wish I could glomp Sweeney Todd... >_<
Mikaela - Vlad has very similar tastes to mine...and I LOVE MCR! ;)
Glad you like Buddypoke!
YAY FOR MCR-NESS!!!! Lol! ^^
Hey Auntie Heather!
I love MCR!!!!! They're so cool.... I like their song "I'm Not Okay". What other songs and bands/singers do you listen to?
Also, is Vlad going to write more in his notebook on your website?
Avery
