Nigel has been a teen vampire for a hundred years, yet he's remained in an emotional stasis the entire time. When new-girl Chloe arrives at school, Nigel's infatuation, recorded in this diary-format narrative, triggers a transformation that gives him full vampire powers and makes him long for her blood. There's lots of humor to be found amidst the adolescent angst.
