Booklist - 11/01/2021 Being a vampire isn’t always easy. Especially when you live with a family as strange and terrifying as Leo’s. Although being undead has its advantages, Leo (white) is under a lot of pressure to be a perfect vampire to please her mother, the terrifying and ruthless Lady Sieglinde. On her birth night, marking 100 years of being a vampire, Leo is supposed to hunt her first human. But when her plan to snack on an orphan from St. Frieda’s Home for Unwanted Children goes awry, she accidentally creates some new ghosts: Minna, an orphan, and an evil specter who used to be the orphanmaster. Although Minna (white) is less than happy about the circumstances, she and Leo have to work together to try to dispatch the orphanmaster before he hunts down the other orphans and destroys the town. This is a delightful and spooky debut from author Foulkes, which weaves together a fast-paced, action-packed plot with hilarious high jinks to create a narrative that will give readers laughs and chills galore. - Copyright 2021 Booklist.
