The Avid Reader

Gertie is a sixteen year old American girl who is being sent to spend a year with a family in Athens and go to school there. Her parents try to tell her that this will be good for her but Gertie knows they just want to get rid of her for a while. Gertie doesn’t have any friends at her school in New York well not true friends. So there really isn’t anyone or anything that she will miss. But Gertie loves spending time alone so that she can read. Gertie loves reading about vampires and Greek mythology. So you would think she would love visiting Athens but it is not Athens particularly that she doesn’t want to see. She is just afraid of the unknown and of being around people or someone she doesn’t know.

But once she arrives in Athens and meets the family that she will be staying with and gets to know them as well as a friend of theirs Gertie falls in love with all of them and doesn’t ever want to leave. Gertie actually meets two guys, Jeno and Hector while in Athens that she really likes a lot and they both like her very much as well. The family that Gertie is staying with warns her away from Jeno though.

Athens has some secrets that they try to keep hidden from most humans. In the ancient city don’t be surprise if you run into a vampire or two or maybe even a Greek god or two as well. Jeno is a part of this secret world he is a vampire. And the family that she is staying with warns her away from Jeno for this reason. They think that vampires are nothing but tramps and if you hang with them then you must be just like them.

But Gertie likes Jeno very much and doesn’t want to lose her new friend but she doesn’t want to lose her new family either so what is a girl to do? Jeno is very addicting but she loves her new family very much. Can she have both? Her new family and Jeno? Will she have to choose between the two?

Yes Vampire Addiction is very addicting. Once I started reading it I couldn’t put it down. I think I read it in one setting. Vampire Addiction will grab you right on the first page and keep you enthralled the whole way through until the last page and beyond. I love me some vampires but throwing in Greek mythology was out of this world as I do love both. If you love vampires and Greek mythology then you are going to love this mixture of the two. Pick up your copy today and get started on this new series. I can’t wait to read the next book Vampire Affliction in The Vampires of Athens.
