YA
Witches from the Vida family hunt vampires--they have laws against befriending them. But Sarah Vida can't turn away from Christopher, a vampire she meets at school, and that friendship makes her first a victim of Christopher's vampire twin brother, then a vampire convert herself. Even rampant melodrama and a conveniently malleable sense of honor don't sap this energetic novel of its fun.
