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 |

But I can't have...no yet anyways..
i already bought the hardcover and there's no way my mom's gonna let me get the paperback cuz i already have it in hardcover...oh well...so, is there gonna be a trailer for tenth grade bleeds???
al
I'm definitely planning on a trailer, al :)=
Do YOU make the trailers?
Oh no, RJ. I hired a brilliant artist by the name of Marie Lu to create the trailers for me: http://mree.deviantart.com/
yeah i went to deviantart and saw her profile. she's awesome! when do you think the trailer will come out??? by the way, how do you spell henry's last name???
al
is the hospital nelly works at in stokerton or bathory or some other town that i dont know of???
al
I see I see I see.
Henry (and Joss's) last name is McMillan. And Nelly works at a hospital outside of Bathory, but not the one in Stokerton.
Wow, i have the hardcover as well and my mom probably doesn't want me buying the same book twice, unforunatley, but i can always admre it on the shelf
Jess

>:)
im thinking of selling my hardcover for a profit, then buying the paperback. yay me *and* my devious mind

thanks, heather!!! i needed to know for my book report. your so kind!!! my little brother says hi!!! i love your devious mind, claudia!!!
eeeeee!!! bring me the horizon people are totally hot with emo flippy hair!!! i love emo flippy hair people!!! i love all emo stuff!!! gjnbasd;rbgasjl;fvbg
Me too! That also got me int trouble...yeah, lesson is never speak to loudly in the hallways.
Jess
oh i can't wait for the paperback to come out! oooh i agree, the bring me the horizon guys are totally hot! haha i love their flippy hair too :)=
Julz
who doesn't love their emo flippy hair??? its so emo-licious!!! emo-licious...i could use that sometime...
haha that's awesome!!
i know. omg i just realized i could've used emo-licious when i emailed my friend just now. that sucks. oh well. so, uh, anybody eat any tasty...cereal lately???
haha. I asked my dad to look for it at the store the next time he went, because I've been craving it ever since Auntie Heather brought it up ^_^ and THEY DIDN'T HAVE IT!! I was so upset!! :(= Oh well I shall continue to look!!!! :)=
that's right. you look for...what was it, count chocula? i love count chocula!!!! it's so choco-licious!!! i hate how it's only out around halloween. maybe i want to eat it during the spring time? or christmas morning? what about my needs, huh? does anybody agree???
I don't like the cover for "Ninth Grade Slays" as much as Bleeds and Bites. Those ones are cooler. I wish it showed more of Vlad's face on Slays.
i like all the covers!!! but this one boy in my class keeps asking me "what's with the emo book?" he's so annoying!!! like he knows anything.
Vlad's not emo! Just . . . a vampire . . .
oh my god...so many people think that all vampire books are emolicious...lol not sure i used that right, but oh well :)= I TOTALLY AGREE!! I am ALWAYS ready for a bowl of Count Chocula!!
i know! i mean, i love all things emo and goth (if that's possible), but still, vlad is not emo! even if he does have emo flippy hair. he's not emo! emo people are always depressed and cut their wrists. vlad can't cut his wrist, he's got an awesome tatoo. i love vampires. i'm always telling the boy in my class, "HE'S NOT EMO!!!" no one listens to me...not even my family...but i don't care...=3
thank you blackleaper12!!! someone who agrees!!! finally!!!
yo, this is chili dog man, remember me? alexis's brother. yeah, so, i just wanted to say that i'm going to the goth side. so, i'll see vlad there. or not. maybe i'll see my good friend, Bobby Smith, aka jelly donuts. so, vlad's a vampire and all. guess what? raisins taste good with vampires. That makes a balanced breakfast. guess what? i don't like bologna!!! i just want to say, even though i'm not crazy about vlad, i still think flippy hair is scrumptiliumpious fergilious! george lopez has a giant head, but not as big as mine!!! (why dont i have friend named bobby smith???)
Oh, I know! If Vlad cuts his wrists he would totally mess up his awesome tattoo! I love vampire too, and goth and emo stuff..so yeah. Me and my friends are all vamp crazy :)= oh well nothing I can do about it.
dude, out of all my friends, i'm the only one that's crazy about goth and emo and vampire stuff. i'm the only one in my class! i don't get that! shouldn't everyone be crazy about that stuff??? seriously?!?! at least you agree, blackleaper12. i feel like i've known you my whole life. someone i can relate to, finally. a window has been opened up to me, and your on the other side, fellow minions!!!!
If you think about it, Vlad wouldn't mess up his tattoo, as a cut would heal perfectly. However, I don't think he'd ever resort to cutting...
Not all Emo kids cut, but some do. If any of you Minions ever have that urge, please seek help right away - Auntie's orders!
ha ha heather your funny :)
hmm that's true...:)= hehe i agree with seth auntie.
I do too I was just saying that it was funny :)
Im a christian, soooo i might be into vamps and goth stuff but i wouldnt do that. sooooo no cutting 4me:)=
Luv AVL.
i'm christian too. but cutting yourself is too painful for me. i wouldn't be able to watch myself break my own skin.
I've been called emo a lot (and i'm not), but i just want to say that not all emo's cut themselves.
Although i do agree with Auntie, cutting yourself is wrong in many way :)=
Jess
Yeah not all emos cut themselves, that's just kind of a stereotype assumption...I mean, I've found that lots of people think that all emo people cut. Yeah, i've been called emo a lot too, but i'm not
a lot of people call my little brother emo, like this one boy in my class, when he's the complete opposite of emo. what's wrong with people?!
So many things lol. :P
Jess
there's nothing wrong with us, though!!! you know why??? cuz we all love the vlad books!!! oh yeah!!!
Right!
Well, i am a little random and weird, but i'm okay with that ;P
Jess
it's ok. it's good to be weird and random. i'm not very random, but i am definitely weird. my friend is way more random than me. ^_^
don't we all have weird friends like that? lol
Jess
yes. yes we do. there's always the normal friend, the weird friend, and the random friend. ...and the awesome friend. i'm usually all four. but that's only cuz i'm awesome!!!
lol! I can agree...sorta. U must be a very entertaining person at lunch ;P
Jess
i am. trust me. i am. that's when i go crazy. beginning of the day, no. end of the day, no. during lunch, i'm at the highest level of crazyness that humans can reach. ^_^
ha ha ha alexis we need to get together and go crazy in some halloween store
----Denise
we should. we totally should. that would be great. run in screaming. punching people in the face. the whole time we are dressed up as...cereal boxes! yes. cereal boxes...i couldn't think of anything...
HAHA! oh man that would be a blast! sounds exactly like what me and my friends would do :)=
my friends wouldn't dare go running through a store screaming and punching people in the face. sometimes, i feel like i should be hangin out with the guys in my class.
Dressed as cereal boxes and screaming = good
Punching people in the face = not cool, unless they punch you first
And HI CHILI DOG!!!
ok well maybe not punching them in the face. maybe just...trying to make conversation with them. i can see their faces._ -
o o
-
that would be so funny. a cereal box trying to talk to you. lol
aww. the face came out all weird. anyway, look at the bunny!!! if it doesn't come out all weird like the last face...
(\_/)
(-_-)
(> <)o
AW!!!!! That's so cool!
I've been trying to hang out with more guys since some of my other friends have too much drama, and the girls r kind of mean...or at least in my grade.
Jess
_ -
o o
-
this is the face i was trying to make. please come out right this time!!!
oh, whoops. I didn't mean the punching in the face! that's mean! i meant running around as cereal boxes :)=
well, still. have you heard of dane cook? it's so funny when he's talking about the dmv. he's like, "When you walk in the door, someone should punch you in the face." he's so funny...^_^
OMG! i love you're books heather! You are awesome!!!! You're my favorite author of all time!!! Is there an eleventh grade book?
