Sonia Hartl's The Lost Girls
Are vampire books coming back? If so, I hope they’re in this vein (pun very much intended). It’s centered on Holly, whose boyfriend turned her into a vampire when she was sixteen, and thirty years later, dumped her. And it turns out she’s not the first he did that to, as his previous two exes, also teen vampires, come to enlist her in a plot to kill him so they can be free. And maybe to stop him from doing it to the super cute new girl in town, too? The characters and relationships are kind of underbaked here, and I had a lot of questions about like why the people in town didn’t seem to notice the dead bodies these girls leave everywhere??? The villains are over the top, but I liked the girls' friendship stuff, and it ended up going some places I didn’t expect. Solid ending for sure. B+.
