What on earth did I just read? It’s chock full of horrific things; missing children, death, suicide, gore, and rats, lots and lots of rats! Oh, and I loved every minute of it! I don’t know where to start with this review or how to categorize this book. It was satire and humor mixed with horror and carnage. Darkly disturbing yet laugh out loud funny. This is a book that truly suits this girl’s eccentric personality.
It centers around a Charleston housewife, Patricia Campbell, in the 1990’s. Her doctor husband is obnoxious and condescending and has saddled her with his elderly mother. Her children take her for granted. Her only reprieve is the monthly book club she shares with her friends where they talk books, drink wine and share gripes.

A stranger, James Harris, moves into the neighborhood and things start to get weird. At first Patricia is friendly and helpful but is soon suspicious that he is behind all the strange occurrences. She begins to suspect he is a vampire. Do not mess with this Southern momma as she decides he must be stopped! I won’t divulge any more, you really must read it for yourself, but hang on to your seat!

I have never heard of Grady Hendrix before this book, but now my curiosity is piqued. I must read more of this author! I give this book five bloody stars!
