Ninth Grade Slays by Heather BrewerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
For introducing Joss McMillan to the world, this one gets five stars from me every time.
No, seriously. This second book of The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod introduces the best character that Z Brewer ever gave us, ever, and don't you forget it!
But aside from Joss being around, this book also introduces a few elements that are more important to the remaining three books, like the crew of goths who hang around at Bathory High (and one of them, Vlad remembers his pre-goth self and we're led to believe he's kind of a poser, not to sound too Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way-ish), as well as Vikas and his habit of nicknaming Vlad "Mahlyenki Dyavol," and Eddie Poe coming to a more prominent role as well - and more prominently needling because he's being pretty obnoxious to poor Vlad.
If you don't enjoy this book and all its follow-ups, then I might just have to tell you, "FRIENDSHIP OVER."
