Sucks to Be Me: The All-True Confessions of Mina Hamilton, Teen Vampire (maybe)
myhotstylist avatar reviewed on


O.M.G! This book was BEYOND adorable, and has been added to my favorite book reads of 2010.

Mina Hamilton is a senior and finds out that her vampire parents may be in trouble for having Mina living them since she is a non-vampire. Now she is required to attend vampire classes over 4 weeks to learn the ways, and make the decision to become a vamp or not. It totally sucks for Mina because she can never tell her best friend Serena, or even her long time crush Nathan about the classes.

In the classes, she meets Aubry, a total hunk who catches her eye, and George, the all too average guy who becomes her best guy friend. Mina is conflicted about turning because she doesnt want to lose her friends or her family. Will she find a way to have both? Will she turn? read it to find out!

Mina is an awesome teen character. This is complete bubblegum coated reading, with nothing too complex. Mina makes little lists throughout the chapters on why it sucks to be her. I love the way she thinks. She also makes little lists consisting of A. B. C. etc etc. I also enjoyed how she and her friend IM each other too. Adds a whole new demetion to the plot being completely modern.

If you enjoy vampires without all the bloodshed, a pinch of romance and tons of laugh out loud moments, you simply MUST read this book!!!
