Good Enough to Eat

Vampire Diet Series, Book 1

By: Jae, Alison Grey

Narrated by: Lori Prince

Robin's New Year's resolution to change her eating habits is as unusual as she is. Unlike millions of other women, she isn't tempted by chocolate or junk food. She's a vampire, determined to fight her craving for a pint of O negative.

When she goes to an AA meeting, hoping for advice on fighting her addiction, she meets Alana, a woman who battles her own demons.

Despite their determination not to get involved, the attraction is undeniable.

Is it just bloodlust that makes Robin think Alana looks good enough to eat, or is it something more? Will it even matter once Alana finds out who Robin really is?

odd ball, romantic fun read

it was great story, i love the character development, de humor and the performance on the audiobook. must have in your collection of paranormal reads

Cute.

Sweet love story, I really enjoyed the protagonists. But the other parts of the story was not super convincing.

Turns 12 step tropes on their heads

First scene is a very stereotypical first time 12 step meeting...with every experience having a completely different meaning than usual. That first scene by itself make me laugh enough for the credit to be worth it.
Otherwise, it's a fun story, interesting enough to keep you going and with a positive ending. Usual wlw romance fare with above average writing.

So Sweet

At first I wasn’t sure if I’d like a story about a vampire not wanting to drink blood from people anymore, but this was such a sweet little adventure that I just couldn’t stop. It ruined my sleep schedule, and I’m not even mad.

Romance and allegory

A cute and romantic story, with some more serious themes like addiction and the pressure of familial expectations.
The struggle that the vampire character goes through with her family is a clear allegory for the struggle that many gay people endure when coming out to family or church, especially conservative and insular church groups that enforce cutting ties with ex-members, only with 100% more vampires.
