The Return of the Vampire,
By
This review is from: The Return of the Vampire (Point) (Paperback)
With a new turn on the old vampire, Caroline B. Cooney expresses the old motto `beauty is on the inside' skillfully in this thrilling tale following the life of Devnee. A dull, boring girl, Devnee yearns for beauty and all the wonderful things it brings. The vampire can grant her this wish, and many others, but they come with a price. Devnee begins to learn as she sees friend and foe suffer because of her selfishness, that even though she is beautiful on the outside, the vampire is slowly rotting her from within with her own greediness.
"The Return of the Vampire" is a different type of vampire book, because it really isn't about the vampire. A great English teacher of mine once said, "Good authors use extraordinary situations to teach ordinary lessons." Cooney does just this through the vampire, addressing ordinary teenage wishes.

Return of the Vampire written by Caroline B.Cooney,
By Cloudflyer <meta name="robots" co... (Coven, Pacific) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Return of the Vampire (Point) (Paperback)
Ordinary,dull, boring Devnee longs to be the most popular, beautiful girl in school. It's bad enough she had to move into the old house with a tower. Devnee wants the in-crowd to be her friends but they all hate her. One night Devnee was in the tower, (which happens to be her room) out comes the vampire who has been trapped there for a long time.He promises to give her anything she wants, that is for a price. Devnee didn't think much of it at first, but later on she realized that what she did was wrong and that she had to undo what she did and stop him before he hurts anyone else. Will Devnee be strong enough to defeat him? Find out as you turn the pages.

This is a really suspensive book. I've read this series of the vampire stories. I love all of Caroline's books and trust me. this book is worth reading and you'd wish you buy it.
