Girls That Growl by Mari Mancusi



Genre: Young Adult
Sub Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampires, Werewolves, Vampire Slayers
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: I’m a vampire.  I’m also a vampire slayer. (It’s a long story – don’t ask.)  And now I, Rayne McDonald, Goth girl, have to try out for the cheerleading squad? You’d think that after I saved my coven last semester, I’d get a break or something.  I’ve got enough on my plate:  My twin keeps whining about whether or not to go all the way; Mom’s boyfriend is moving in; and my man, Jareth, who’s now allowed out in the sun, has turned from a dark, brooding hottie vamp into a surfer dude. But I’m still on the clock and have a new assignment.  A member of the football team has disappeared – and my bosses at Slayer Inc. think the cheerleaders had something to do with it, because they’re actually werewolves!  I always knew they were a pack of bitc… Now they want me to infiltrate the squad and get the dirt.  But first, I’ll need an extreme prep makeover.  If only they’d let me wear fishnets under this revolting uniform…

This is the third book Mari’s Vampire series. Rayne who is now a vampire who is also a vampire slayer must go and now she has to join the cheerleading squad. Rayne isn’t quite sure how things could get worse. But there are a few more encounters that Rayne has to go through. I love how Rayne finally starts to look outside of herself and actually works to helping others. I found the whole story to be entertaining. I love that we got to deal with some real life issues as well. If you hadn’t guessed I really liked this book and can’t wait to read the next one in the series, Bad Blood.

Stake That! By Mari Mancusi


Genre: Young Adult
Sub Genre: Paranormal Romance; Vampires
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: All I want is to be a vampire. But nooo – I have to be Rayne McDonald, vampire slayer… Sisters. They’ll swipe your clothes, your boyfriends, your destiny. But it wasn’t exactly my twin Sunny’s fault. Magnus, a vamp hot-tie and coven leader, mistook her for me last month and bit her instead. Now they’re doing the interspecies dating thing. But back to me. Turns out that for every generation (yes, just like on Buffy), there’s a vampire slayer – and this time around, it just happens to be yours truly. My first mission: infiltrate a seedy vamp bar downtown and expose its vampire owner for purposely spreading a blood disease he created himself. A task almost harder than passing trig. After going it alone once, I realized I needed help. So Magnus sent his sexy Goth buddy Jareth to go undercover with me. And let me just say I wouldn’t mind going under the covers with him. Maybe boys don’t bite after all…

This is the second book in Mari Mancusi’s Vampire series. The main character of this book is Rayne, whom we follow as she learns that she is the next vampire slayer. Which she is so not happy about. On her first assignment she meets the very hot Jareth. Who mistakes her for Sunny. The story is very funny and takes up right where Boys that Bite left off. I really enjoyed this story and am looking forward to reading the next book in the series, Girls that Growl.

Let me know what your thoughts are.
