The Story
Suck it Up and Die—Book Review

It's been two years since Morning McCobb became the first poster child for the International Vampire League, reluctantly leading the way to American Out Day, when Leaguer vampires went public as the last minority with special needs. Morning couldn't be more ready to give up the spotlight, even though the love of his life and budding filmmaker Portia would love to keep him there. All Morning wants is to fulfill his human dream by completing his training at the New York City Fire Academy. But an ancient vampire with a vendetta against Morning and Portia has other plans. Will he be able to turn the tide against Leaguer vampires and destroy Morning in the process?
The Scoop
Suck it Up and Die—Book Review
{spoiler alert}

The sequel to Suck It Up, Suck It Up And Die provides a bit of comic relief in the wildly popular vampire genre. Filled with snarky humor, this story features a lovable protagonist and subtle themes of tolerance. As the new minority with "special needs," vampires must battle against prejudice and bigotry. There is even a "vampire czar" appointed by the President who is charged with deporting the unwanted citizens and plans a mass genocide instead. But the context for this evil behavior is pure campy comedy. Morning's girlfriend Portia is a smart and independent character, and the romance between the two progresses. The action is limited to making out, but there is some discussion about the best time to lose their virginity. Language is relatively mild and infrequent (d-mn, a-s, bullsh-t, cr-p, h-ll). Readers will best enjoy these books in order.
