Diary of a Wimpy Vampire is a tale of a 15-year-old vampire named Nigel who’s nearing his 100th year on Earth. He still hasn’t tasted what it’s like to have a girlfriend and to be treated with respect. Unlike the popular vampire Edward Cullen, Nigel doesn’t have the good looks or the mesmerizing beauty associated with vampires. He also doesn’t have the speed, agility and strength normally possessed by vampires like him.

And then he met Chloe. She is his classmate in high school and he is in love with her! He plans on making her his girlfriend and telling her the truth about him. His quest to make her his is where the story revolves around.

Diary of a Wimpy Vampire is funny. I love how it is absolutely NOT what Twilight is all about. Nigel is a sensitive vampire who’s bored with his existence but was awakened by his love for Chloe. He can’t feed on human beings because he doesn’t possess the strength to do so plus he can’t mesmerize humans. And get this. He is grossed out by the thought of feeding on someone he might know!

If you want a quick, simple and funny read, I suggest you check out this book. If you want something that is NOT Twilight, then this book is for you. Of course, this book is intended for teens and young adults so it’s really a very easy read.

I am giving Diary of a Wimpy Vampire 5 out of 5 stars.
