Can Raven stop Dullsville from becoming Vampireville?

For goth-girl Raven, dating her dream boyfriend is complicated, especially because Alexander's secret means they can only meet at night. And now they must be extra wary, with Alexander's archrival, Jagger, creeping around town. Then Jagger's exquisitely pale sister Luna also surfaces—and seems to have her sights on Raven's own longtime nemesis.

Raven and Alexander must begin a terrifying hunt for Jagger and Luna's secret hideout. Can they drive them away before Dullsville is eternally threatened by these menaces from the Underworld?

From School Library Journal
Grade 7 Up–In this third book in the series, 16-year-old Goth girl Raven and her vampire boyfriend, Alexander, attempt to save Dullsville from an invasion of the undead. Jagger and Luna, evil teen vampire twins new in town, are trying to get their fangs into Trevor, soccer star and Raven's nemesis since kindergarten. Making things even more difficult for Raven is the fact that she and her boyfriend run on different schedules; she can only see him at night, due to his aversion to daylight. The book culminates with a party at the cemetery, during which Jagger and Luna hope to trap Trevor and make him one of their kind. The action begins where the second installment ended and no effort is made to bring readers up to speed, leaving those unfamiliar with the first two titles in the dark. Although the series is a fun, fast read for vampire fans, it pales in comparison to other titles currently available in the genre.–Lynn Evarts, Sauk Prairie High School, Prairie du Sac, WI

From Booklist
Gr. 7-10. In this third installment of the breezy Vampire Kisses series, Raven must protect mortal nemesis Trevor from the designs of newly turned Luna, while the complicated, chaste romance between Raven and gentle vampire Alexander continues to deepen. From Raven's Olivia Outcast clutch to her "Beetlejuice black-and-white striped tights," Schreiber overloads her main character with teen-goth calling cards that will date the series. What will continue to reel in readers are the sitcom-ready characters, setting, and tender outsiders-in-love theme. Jennifer Mattson

Customer Reviews

GREAT!
I love this book! It's so great. I'm 14, and when I read the first book, I was hooked. When I found out that there was a third one, I had to buy it. It was so worth it.

VAMPIREVILLE follows right on the heels of its predecessors, and it is strongly recommended that the previous books in the series, Vampire Kisses and Vampire Kisses 2: Kissing Coffins (Vampire Kisses), be read first, otherwise things will not make sense and you're sure to be confused and unable to fully enjoy the story.

Alexander Sterling is back in "Dullsville," and Raven couldn't be happier about that. However, Jagger and his twin sister, Luna, are also hanging around, which is the reason why Raven has started carrying garlic in her purse. To make matters worse, now that Luna has been turned into a vampire, she's on the search for her true love, and she's convinced she's found him in Trevor.

Trevor may have been Raven's arch nemesis since kindergarten, but that doesn't mean that she wants him to fall victim to Luna's charms. Not to mention her fangs. So Raven takes it upon herself to protect Trevor--after all, the last thing "Dullsville" needs is a vampire-Trevor!

Raven is also trying to deal with having a nocturnal boyfriend. She mourns the loss of Alexander's company during the day, just as she despises the school that prevents her from being able to keep the same hours as he does. The time they do have together is spent searching cemeteries and other spooky deserted areas for Jagger and Luna's hideout, determined to drive them away before they turn "Dullsville" into someplace infinitely less dull--"Vampireville."

VAMPIREVILLE is a fun continuation of the VAMPIRE KISSES series, and will definitely leave readers eagerly awaiting the fourth book, Vampire Kisses 4: Dance with a Vampire (Vampire Kisses). The writing and storyline doesn't quite live up to some of the other young adult books in this genre, but it is nevertheless an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon.

Enough to keep me entertained.
I just finished reading this book about an hour ago. I've read the other two and thoroughly enjoyed the easy to read writing and soft plot of the story.
It's not the Bite thrilled, horror and blood dread book I read about vampires most of the time. Which is why I never bought the books, instead borrowed them from my friend. But I do believe that is what I love most about the books.
I do not mean to underestimate the story line. It pulled me in, like all great books and I found my self tapping my pen in irritation and anticipation for my classes to be over so I could return to the story.

It's a great read and wonderfully written. But it's not a book that one need to plan to read. It's one where you read simply to read out of your love for the dark world and for vampire lovers, no doubt.

So, all in all:
I loved the book(s). I will read them all again, more than once this year, just when I need to pass some time or want to dream about having my own Gothic adventure.
