This middle grade debut is so much fun and it’s perfect for the entire family. In this society vampires exist and walk among humans. They have families, they get married, they have most of the same rights humans do. This includes the right to adopt. Sophie was adopted at a young age by her Mama and the Duke. She remembers life going from foster care to foster care and she loves her permanent home and her mothers. However, her family gets lots of visits from CPS (child protective services) after all the government needs to make sure that the vampires aren’t snacking on their child. However, there’s something affecting some vampires and it’s making them go: “rogue”. This is an almost a feral state, and unfortunately this happens to Mama. And it’s up to the Duke and Sophie to not only save Mama but find a cure for all the vampires. Adding to the fun of this book, even children are vampires. Unlike other vampire lore, if you’re a 12-year-old vampire you are 12 years old for life; both physically, mentally, and psychologically. That means one has to have parents and Sophie‘s best friend just happens to be a vampire who was adopted to human family. These two get into some of the best trouble together. They both know that they have to save not only Sophie‘s family but her best friends lifeline. They must save their families and their way of life because love is love even if one of you is a vampire. Sophie is the human hero of this story about a world where vampires and humans live together. One of her adopted vampire mothers ends up going rogue and she has to fight to save her mother and stop the world from turning on vampires. There is lots of social commentary and correlation with the marginalized groups of today's America. Delphine is her closest friend and also a vampire who was turned at age 12. In many ways she is still a child but also an old soul. Thanks to NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
