Rain, Scott Nicholson Narrated by: Eric Stuart This is such a funny audible book, I laughed and giggled, snorted throughout this goofy book. It is so clever with the silly things it has in it that I almost missed some of the things if I wasn't paying attention. The book is sprinkled with the quick wit, and cunning way they eased the witticism in. I loved it and the characters were wonderful, the plot's a hoot! The narrator couldn't have been better for this book. He fit this book perfect and made this book even funnier! He made the voices perfect for each person, even the women. It is not easy to do comedy and he did it so easy! Awesome job!!! I am embarrassed to say that this had been sitting on my TBR list for a very long time. I finally read it, mainly because the two authors are two of my favorite, and also great guys. The book was a good book but not the greatest from these authors. It was cute, quirky, a little goofy, and maybe a little scary (maybe). I do love the way these guys dialogue and the storyline was a good idea. It was just a little too silly for my taste. The plot was a good idea- a Vampire Club/Class or major at a college, a small group of kids obsessed with Vampires- finding them, proving their existence, proving they aren't necessarily the bad creatures of the night the media has turned them into. This group is led by an old professor who pulls strings to fund their trip to find out if a man killed 150 years ago may be a vampire, lying in his coffin, just waiting to be brought back to his vampiric life. But when they get there, they end up dealing with an ages-old secret organization intent on the extinction of vampires. Again, it was a good book and the ending was left open-ended, supposedly for sequels, but it looks like this will be the only book in the series. I would have read more because it intrigued me enough to want to know what happened to the characters and what direction they were headed at the end of the book. These are great authors but this was not their greatest work. Not bad, not great, but okay. Opening this novel, I was preparing myself for the vampire version of the Babysitter's club, as the title promised. In that regard, I wasn't disappointed. The book opens on a group of college students majoring in Vampire Studies, with the only interest of finding the existence of vampires. I thought that this premise was an interesting one, and I hadn't read before any books about a club finding the existence of vampires before, so I kept reading. The book continued in a pleasant way, the storyline was engaging and the characters amusing, but for me there were definitely a few issues. The author uses the word "for" a lot--"for this reason," "for that was why"...that drives me nuts. There is a time and a place for the word for, and it's not in every other sentence. Also, when the ending occured, I don't like the way the main character approached it. It was the culmination of his goal--and yet he felt condemned? I know that a drastic change like that can alter a person's perspective, but that seemed a little extreme. If you want a good read, though, with an amusing plotline and a twist on your traditional vampire novel, this one's for you! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Over 150 years ago, a man was killed with a silver bullet in a rural, Pennsylvanian town. A man who just might be a vampire. The Vampire Club, a group of misfits who meet regularly in the basement of Western Virginia University@s library, think that they might have found their first documented case of a real vampire. Better yet, the Club thinks that the vampire might still be alive to this day, lying comatose in a hidden grave. And this is good news indeed for a group of vampire lovers. The hunt begins, and as they close in on their immortal prize, they soon realize that they aren't the only ones interested in the vampire; indeed, a powerful group of killers will use whatever means possible to keep the vampire permanently in its grave. The first in a series that features The Vampire Club, a group of lovable, laughable, larcenous college students turned vampire hunters. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

A very strange take on the vampire genre involving unlovable characters and a plot with holes you could drive a truck through. I’m sure silver bullets are a werewolf thing but not being a member of the vampire club I could be wrong. I won’t be keeping an eye out for a sequel ( )
