Carpe Corpus was a decent read. It tied up a lot of loose ends from previous books. I look forward to the next addition of this series.

Claire and her friends are divided over the recent events in Morganville. Shane's locked up with his father. Michael's working for the evil Bishop along with Claire - while Eve is furious with both of them.
Claire needs to believe the Myrnin has a plan, but she's not sure she can actually trust him.
Bishop is running the town and pushing it close to ruin. He doesn't care about any of the citizens. Claire realizes that Amelie hasn't gone into the shadows and disappeared. Instead, she's been working to move the townspeople out of danger and away from Morganville.
With the whole town gearing up for a fight, who will be left standing and what alliances will be broken/formed?
THE MORGANVILLE VAMPIRES series is a fast-paced, addicting read that draws readers in and never lets them go, and CARPE CORPUS is a great addition to the line.
From the back of the book:
In the small college town of Morganville, vampires and humans lived in (relative) peace -- until all the rules got rewritten when evil vampire Bishop arrived, looking for the lost book of vampire secrets. He's kept a death grip on the town ever since.
Now an underground resistance is brewing, and in order to contain it, Bishop must go to even greater lengths. He vows to obliterate the town and all its inhabitants--the living and the undead. Claire Danvers and her friends are the only ones who stand in his way. But even if they defeat Bishop, will the vampires be content to go back to the old rules after having had such a taste of power?

I absolutely love this series and this book didn't disappoint! Looking forward to her next book "Fade Out", set to be released November 2009.
