Mallory is accidently turned into a vampire and then discovers that she cannot eat blood, as most vampires do. So she must find a subsitute. first she must find out what she can eat. No dairy or milk. They make her puke. Eventually, she ends up preparing and drinking lots of fruit and vege smoothies. And tries to solve murder crimes at the same time. These are cozy mysteries, not to be taken seriously. But short and fun to read. Adventures of a Vegan Vamp: A Paranormal Cozy Mystery (Vegan Vamp Mysteries Book 1) by Cate Lawley The story moves at a fast pace, with an original plot and very likable character (Mallory). This is not an ordinary vampire story. Told through Mallory's voice, one day she wakes up and finds she is not the same. On a mission to find the vampire who killed and turned her, turns out to be a delightful read. I highly recommend to those who love a good vampire story. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Undead and vegan? Not the afterlife this girl had planned. Waking up thin is one thing. But waking up gaunt, hangry, and undead makes for a very bad day. Mallory's killer better hide, because she's just discovered blood, meat, and dairy don't agree with her, and a future with no cheese is grim indeed. She's out to find her killer . . . and maybe a vegan cheese that doesn't melt her nose hairs. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Worse, she has a really hard time forming friendships with her neighbors and coworkers even though not all of them are bad people. And so she does things she doesn't really like to do with the hope that people will start to like her.
Everything goes to hell when she blacks out after having two drinks and wakes up in her condo with a sickly thin body and no memories of what happened that night. And so she begins a self-journey to find people that can help her and solve the mystery.
Now, I like Mallory and feel guilty of identifying with her at times. She isn't evil, but she overthinks about her own personal problems and has a real hard time acting amicable towards other people. And so people that don't know her think she is rude and cause an endless cycle of rejection that makes her feel even worse. Mallory is definitely not a Mary Sue, but as she befriends a guy named Alex that seems to know a lot about what happened to her, she starts to open up more, create healthy boundaries and people for once start to like her for the first time ever. Heck, she is also quite brave!
Typos are not abundant in the book, but I do feel like the prose would have been better if an editor had helped "clean up" some of the more confusing paragraphs that are too wordy. The beginning of the book makes you falsely assume Mallory is poor and yet she drives a fancy sports car. Huh? It isn't even a used one, it's a brand new car! The scenes of the final battle gets a bit confusing too.
I also felt the book didn't really up the stakes towards the finale. You feel like you are in the middle of the novel and then BAM! final battle erupts with no warning. This book suffers from the syndrome of "don't tell the MC about lots of important general knowledge everyone is supposed to know." Yup, just like the Harry Potter books, Mallory isn't fed very reliable information about what happened to her from the people that are supposed to know and then act all surprised she freaks out when something completely preventable happens to her. I think that is the only thing I didn't like about the book.
However, I enjoyed the book and would enjoy reading the sequels sometime. Very cute read. ( )
