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 |

Hey Auntie! I loved TGB. Read it all of last night until 5:00 am.(Just got it last night.....) Anyway, me and my friends had national goth day on thursday to celebrate the release! It was so much fun since most of my friends aren't goth in the first place.
By the by.... Can you please have another art contest? Cause I finally have a scene that I want to draw.
Anyway..... Have a good one Auntie and all you fellow minions.
i am officially the sadest minion
i live in ct and i just asked my m om to drive me and she said nooooo
plus i only have 2 friends who read the series but one hasent read it yet and the other says the books arent that good(i am planning to punish her for saying this) and when i ask ppl to try the series they say that they like twilight only when they havent even tried to read the books!!!!!!!!!!!! i am beyond sad and feel like someone slapped me =[
enjoy the party auntie heather
hey, i really wish i could make it to the party, but i live too far away. :[ but i just finished tgb, and i absolutely love it! <3 i'm not gonna spill anything, but....yeah...
aww auntie! dont tell me this! i wanna cum sooo bad!!!! i cant wait to read the book!
Hello "Auntie" Heather. I have just finished Eighth Grade Bites and I think that your a great writer. It was a great story but I found one problem with it. I guess its more of an opinion statement but I think that you made a mistake in an article of clothng for vlad. In the book he is looking through his dresser drawer looking fot his box, and he says that everytnihg was in check, socks and boxers. This here is the problem. Vladimir is the kind of goth/gamer-nerd that would wear briefs (AKA tighty whtiies to those of you still immature enough to call them that) not boxers. I am this kind of a kid and see a lot of myself in Vlad. I think that in future books you should have him switch.
i wanted a purple iPod nano with vlad's mark on it!! but i couldnt go because of 2 reasons:
1. my parents didnt want to drive 4 5 hours (its only 5 hours!!! & its 4 a great cause!)
2. i had 2 go 2 my dads company pinic instead (it was outside it was hot i didnt hav tht much fun al though i got an octopus painted on my hand:)=)
anyway so im one very sad minion and im not talking 2 any1 in the family 2day or 2marow(its wht they get)
I bought the book on Thursday and finished it. IT WAS SO GOOD! I wish I could make it to the party.
Hey Auntie!
I loved 8th Grade Bites and 9th Grade Slays! I even got my friends to read them(even the one friend I have that doesn't like to read loved them!) and I'm going out to buy 10th Grade Bleeds today! I just wish that I checked your site sooner. I definately would have come to Fairveiw heights, Illinois...even if I do live in Jersey. xD
I was wondering if there was someplace I could buy a Vlad hoodie from the Eigth Grade Bites cover...? When I first got the book I even remember thinking that having a hoodie like that would be awsome!
Anyway, I loved the first two and can't wait to read the third! My birthday is tomarrow, so me buying it will be like a b-day present to myself!
Keep on writing Auntie! Your amazing and I can't wait to get my hands on Tenth Grade Bleeds!!
<3 Always,
An Avid Reader and Forever a Minion :)=

I made my mark and it looks like this: (:/) sooooooooo cooool!!!! thank you Auntie Heather for these awesome books, it's fun to think of someone like Vlad(hes so coool!!!! :)= ) maybe you could put a purple iPod with Vlads mark on it up as a contest prize!!
