My Roommate Is a Vampire

I really wanted to like this book, but the ending didn’t match the beginning for me. I loved the premise. A surprise vampire as your roommate that you need to teach about the ways of modern life? SOLD! The beginning was a good mixture of fun, magic, and even plausibility (as much as one can have with a vampire book). Unfortunately, the middle lost steam. The world of vampires, how things work, and more importantly how Fredrick became a vampire isn’t really explained. I wanted more answers (even simple ones) than I actually got. The only thing that got explained were highly ridiculous like the mysterious coat closet she is forbidden to go into at the start of the book. By the end, I was still hoping that the characters I got invested in at the beginning would be able to salvage the book, but alas… nope. The end felt very rushed and not very well thought out. Overall, I liked the premise and the characters, but I think more time was spent editing/working on the start and idea of the book that ending got lost. If you like vampires and light-hearted contemporary romance, you’ll probably still like this book. I just wanted a bit more complexity outside of the overdone vampire tropes.
