Why read it?

2 authors picked Mina and the Undead as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

With an awesome nineties vibe that took me right back to my own teen years, Mina and the Undead is about a British teen girl battling vampires (obviously) in New Orleans. A great Gothic horror written by a fantastic new British writer, filled with gore and references to 90’s pop culture. A ton of fun!

From Bryony's list on for Buffy lovers.

This book – Mina and the Undead – is a fun and twisty homage to all things Interview with a Vampire. That is, if the horror of Interview with a Vampire and the humor of Clueless had a baby. Honestly, I can’t recommend this book enough. It got me out of a reading slump. I breezed through it in like a day, and I can’t wait for the next book in the series to drop. 

From Lorien's list on non-sparkly vampires.
