Teaser Tuesday: Teenage Vampire: Year One

Teaser Tuesday is a meme hosted by MizB over at Should Be Reading.  Here's how it works:

Grab your current read

Open to a random page

Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page

BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)

Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Here are my teasers:

"The rest of the school day was boring, but Derrick met me out by my car, just like he promised.  His appearance was darker and different from the Derrick that I remember, but that was just on the outside."

~page 256 Teenage Vampire by Florence Wilson

Musing Monday

MizB over at Should Be Reading hosts Musing Mondays.  Here are this weeks questions.

What are you currently reading? Would you recommend it to others? Is it part of a series (if so, which one)? What are you thinking about it? What book(s) would you compare it to, if any?

I am currently reading "Teenage Vampire" by Florence Wilson.  At this point (I am halfway through the book) I would not recommend this book to others.  There has been way too much that is a rip off of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga.  While the plot is not the same there are way too many details that feel like they come directly from Twilight and some from New Moon.  I say "at this point" I would not recommend it because I am finally seeing some fresh original plot show through.  At the same time the grammar and inconsistencies make for a difficult read.  I will continue to read the book because I want to see what happens and I hate leaving a book in the middle.  However, if it doesn't improve I will not read any of the books that are supposed to follow.
