My Roommate Is A Vampire by Jenna Levine
True love is at stake in this charming, debut romantic comedy.
Cassie Greenberg loves being an artist, but it’s a tough way to make a living. On the brink of eviction, she’s desperate when she finds a too-good-to-be-true apartment in a beautiful Chicago neighborhood. Cassie knows there has to be a catch—only someone with a secret to hide would rent out a room for that price.
Of course, her new roommate Frederick J. Fitzwilliam is far from normal. He sleeps all day, is out at night on business, and talks like he walked out of a regency romance novel. He also leaves Cassie heart-melting notes around the apartment, cares about her art, and asks about her day. And he doesn’t look half bad shirtless, on the rare occasions they’re both home and awake. But when Cassie finds bags of blood in the fridge that definitely weren’t there earlier, Frederick has to come clean…
Cassie’s sexy new roommate is a vampire. And he has a proposition for her.
This was cute.
I liked both Cassie and Frederick. I also liked that it took place in Chicago and the suburbs. I could picture things even though some details were not correct. I’m guessing they were changed for the purpose of the book. Like the size of Nordstrom and number of floors. Nothing major. I enjoy reading in settings that I know. It just makes a book easier to picture for me. The note writing between Cassie and Frederick was something that stood out to me. I think I would have liked a little more vampire stuff. Maybe that will be in the second book. I did like the art focus. Cassie was such a normal person struggling to make it in an expensive city. It was easy to relate to her. Frederick was just so awkward. I laughed out loud a few times because of the things he said or did. The book was just a fun read.
I gave this 4 stars.
