BLESSED By: Cynthia Leitich Smith Young Adult Literature

BLESSED By: Cynthia Leitich Smith
Quincie P. Morris has just been turned into a blood thirsty vampire. And if that's not enough to worry about then there's always the fact that the vampire that "blessed" her is running loose and attempting to become a modern day Dracula, complete with his own army of fledglings. Or maybe she could worry about clearing the name of her best friend (and true love) of murder charges. The angel waiting in her parents' restaurant would be cause for some alarm if he wasn't trying to save Quincie's soul from destruction. With all this on her plate, Quincie and a few unusual friends set out to save the human race from a vampire apocalypse and maybe, just maybe save a few souls in the process. Ages 14 and up. Candlewick $17.99 Reviewed by Maggie age 16
