Honestly, what more can you ask of a book that only seeks to entertain? Both slapstick and satire. Making the old new again with several creative twists on hoary old plot points and conventions. The grossout and the titillating. A fine mystery and a page turning thriller. Characters who, while not real, are realistic enough to make you care what happens to them. Inside jokes (and I'm sure I missed a few) that don't stick out like sore thumbs...

OK, so there were a few points when the grammar made me wince...but I can let those slide. In an age of vampire saturation, this made me enjoy a vampire story again. So I can forgive it a lot.

There are plenty of plot synopsis reviews here and elsewhere, so you don't need that from me. My review: 1) this kept me up reading because I wanted to find out what would happen next. 2) I was surprised several times with twists that were earned. 3) at the close, I find myself happy that there is a sequel...

As I said, what more can you ask of a book?

Combines newer Hollywood and Old Hollywood and... VAMPIRES! Really enjoyed this read.

The literary equivalent of a SciFi channel original movie. Entertaining, a quick read, but perhaps unsatisfying and possessed of certain enjoyable cliches.

A different twist in the vampire genre. An enjoyable read and hopefully the start of a new series.

Want a mashup of every Vampyre myth ever, rolled up into a history of Hollywood, old to new, and drenched in blood? Then THIS is the ridiculous and hilariously, gorily enjoyable mystery romp for you!

New take on vampires. Since the vampires wrote the movies, everything we know about them is wrong.

50 page rule applied to this one though I gave it a good 100. I think it may be one of those better listened to then read.

Great vampire book! Loved every minute of it. The book does reference TONS of older actors that I had to look up and I think they must have been sponsored by IMDb.com as much as they referenced it. But great read!

I would have been slightly disappointed if the lovely and talented film actress [a:Adrienne Barbeau|16036|Adrienne Barbeau|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1388171821p2/16036.jpg] hadn't written a fabulously entertaining book with her co-author [a:Michael Scott|27100|Michael Scott|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1243251417p2/27100.jpg] of [b:The Alchemyst|17402605|The Alchemyst (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, #1)|Michael Scott|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1361310229s/17402605.jpg|3354660] fame. Fortunately, this vampyre fantasy/murder mystery set in modern-day Hollywood IS fabulously entertaining. Horror, humor, and suspense are deftly blended into this unusual boy-meets-ghoul story reminiscent of the best of [a:Charlaine Harris|17061|Charlaine Harris|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1399317093p2/17061.jpg]'s Southern Vampire Mysteries series (if by Southern we meant SoCal). 'True Blood' aficionados will appreciate this stand-alone novel.

If Lady Gaga were ever to decide to star in a movie, she would be perfect in the role of vampyre heroine Ovsanna Moore. I also like that Hollywood classics like Rudolph Valentino, Orson Welles, and Mary Pickford make appearances, and the fictional timeline also plays with history. Let's just say that Dan Brown's explanation of the original Friday the 13th in [b:The Da Vinci Code|968|The Da Vinci Code (Robert Langdon, #2)|Dan Brown|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1303252999s/968.jpg|2982101] isn't the full story in Ovsanna's telling.

W tej ksiażce pobobało mi się że skakałes pomiedzy róznymi ludzmi ale było to widoczne, na przykład jak miałes sytuacje z perspektywy meżczyzny od razu było to rozpoznawalne przez font oraz oznaczone na początku rozdziału. Była to historia detektywistyczna, co mnie przyciagneło do niej, chociaż nie wszystkie sekrety byly od razy oczywiste.
