Search - Bite Me

The 3rd book of the Bloodsucking Fiends series. I really enjoyed reading this one ALOT, my only issue was having to read in "Abby lingo" ('Kayso!) Once I got over that, it was the laugh out loud, funny story line that reels me into Moore's writing! So glad I came across this author and his books!

The 3rd installment in the adventures of Jody and Tommy, your favorite bloodsucking fiends, is a marked fall-off from the first two. That's not to say it isn't worth reading. Fans of Christopher Moore's characters and imaginative storytelling will find "Bite Me" to be familiarly unfamiliar territory. But I think that the stakes of the novel are somewhat lost over the many, many intertwining plot lines.

Christopher Moore does it again! This book is laugh out loud hilarious! Most of the book is told from the point of view of "Abby Normal," a goth Valley Girl, who wants nothing more than to be "Nosferatu" and spend her life being Mistress of the Greater Bay Area Night and going "Raaarrr" to those around her.

When we last left Abby and her manga-haired love monkey, Foo Dog, they had trapped "The Countess and Lord Flood" in bronze statues and were living in the love lair deciding what their next move should be. They quickly learn they have gotten in way over their heads when they discover that Chet is a vampire cat and is quickly turning other cats to the dark side and eating several people along the way. Plus, Jody and Tommy are gonna be REALLY pissed when they get out of the bronze statues. And then there are those ass-hat cops Rivera and Cavuto who are snooping around...seriously, could life get any more sucky?

Sadly, I think this is the last story in the series as this book ties up many loose ends and pretty much cleans house. One can only hope there will be more, but it doesn't feel like it. Do yourself a favor and read this series, starting with BLOODSUCKING FIENDS, followed by YOU SUCK and then BITE ME.
