by Mari Mancusi is the second book in the Blood Coven Vamire series. It follows Rayne (sister of Sunny and lover of vampires) as she finds out that she is a Vampire Slayer. While she initially balks at the idea she agrees to help find out what has been going on with a vampire who is trying to take out Magnus (Sunny's boyfriend).This second book in the series continues it's success as a comedic paranormal romance. Told in blog and diary format Rayne's voice is hysterical. Her adventures as a new slayer who finds herself working with a very hot vampire are both hysterical and engrossing leading to a book that makes you both laugh out loud and care about the characters who have emotional depth. This is one of the funniest books I've read in a long time and it's the best in it's genre (YA comedic paranormal romance).
Appropriateness: Rayne is a self proclaimed bad girl, she's a goth who smokes and drinks (although is never drunk) and talks about having sex (but never actually does), sneaks out, uses a fake and wants to be a vampire. All of her bad girl behavior is shown to be a cover for how scared and upset she is on the inside because of being deserted by her father. There is no sex (but there is a very steamy kissing scene) and no drugs. Even with the bad behavior I wouldn't worry about giving this book to a middle schooler. I would rate the interest level at 13+
