Goodreads Summary for  
Nice Girls Don’t Have Fangs (Book 1)

Maybe it was the Shenanigans gift certificate that put her over the edge. When children’s librarian and self-professed nice girl Jane Jameson is fired by her beastly boss and handed twenty-five dollars in potato skins instead of a severance check, she goes on a bender that’s sure to become Half Moon Hollow legend. On her way home, she’s mistaken for a deer, shot, and left for dead. And thanks to the mysterious stranger she met while chugging neon-colored cocktails, she wakes up with a decidedly unladylike thirst for blood.

Jane is now the latest recipient of a gift basket from the Newly Undead Welcoming Committee, and her life-after-lifestyle is taking some getting used to. Her recently deceased favorite aunt is now her ghostly roommate. She has to fake breathing and endure daytime hours to avoid coming out of the coffin to her family. She’s forced to forgo her favorite down-home southern cooking for bags of O negative. Her relationship with her sexy, mercurial vampire sire keeps running hot and cold. And if all that wasn’t enough, it looks like someone in Half Moon Hollow is trying to frame her for a series of vampire murders. What’s a nice undead girl to do?

My Thoughts (spoiler free):

Jane is kind of awesome, she has mastered the art of snark and quick wit and she made me laugh, chortle, snort, chuckle, and giggle throughout both books. Plus she is a librarian and really what book lover doesn’t love a good book about a book lover! She also has a knack for random trivia which no doubt amazes and annoys all around her :-P I’d recommend these books if you’re looking for a lighter, entertaining read….or listen.

I listened to these as audio books and had no complaints about the narrator. I’m not familiar with southern accents to be able to judge how well the narrator pulled them off but I do know that she easily differentiated between the various characters and I was never confused with who was speaking.

I will definitely be listening to more of this series and the spinoff series, Half Moon Hollow.

Overall Rating for Book 1: 4.5 out of 5
Overall Rating for Book 2: 4 out of 5
