Poison Apple

review 1: I bought this book at a thrift shop solely based on the fact that it's about vampires. I'm a sucker for vampire stuff, no pun intended. Thankfully, this was a good book. It's from a series for "middle grade" readers, but it can be read by older readers without seeming too "young."The book's main character is Emma-Rose Paley, a 7th grader from New York who likes dark, gloomy things. When her great aunt Margo visits from Romania/Transylvania to help her mother with a "Creatures of the Night" museum exhibit, she notices how much they look alike and how much they have in common (wearing black, disliking garlic and daylight, etc). One night, she sneaks into the guest bedroom and catches Margo morphing from a bat to a human. This prompts her to research her family, which is how ... moreshe becomes convinced that Margo is a vampire and so is she.The book realistically handles the ups and downs of middle school life. From having an argument with her best friend to having her first crush and figuring out more about herself, the author handles it well. I think this book is perfect for younger readers who like spooky stuff that isn't terrifying.
review 2: This book was good because the girl Emma- Rose thought that she was going to be a vampire. She started overreacting about the whole matter. She hated sunny days, her dog hated her, and she had pale skin. She thought her aunt was going to invite her to a vampire newing. She finds out that her aunt is the vampire emperess and her arch enimie is a vampire. What a shocker I recommend this book to read. less
