Sydney's Vampire Diary - Freshman Year

by Lory Alison

Overview

Imagine finding a diary from 1984 and realizing that the fourteen-year-old author was the object of desire for "real" vampires... In SYDNEY'S VAMPIRE DIARY Freshman Year, Sydney, goes from geek to chic when she makes cheerleader for the first time. As she falls in love with a super sweet, hot new guy, Lane, she must try to forget the horror of Ethan, the "vampire" who almost destroyed her the year before. We're not talking about those immortal, blood-sucking, TWILIGHT vampires - no, not those...but every bit as gorgeous, sexy and evil. They lurk in every high school disguised as handsome students...preying on innocent girls. They are soul-sucking predators...they are the REAL vampires, they have the power and they know it. Just when it looks like Sydney's dreams are coming true, the most powerful "vampire" in her school, Knox Duke, becomes interested in her. That's when the danger and thrills begin! www.sydneysvampirediary.com (4 Books in the Series)

Editorial Reviews

...a delightfully humorous book with very serious and thought provoking subject matter. Lory Alison has created a work for the young adult in all of us. Her realistic style immediately engages the reader in the wonderful world of fiction yet touches on a little bit of truth in all of us. Alison takes the hot topic of vampires and makes it personal to her readers. Highly enjoyable!

Lory Alison takes an ambitious young girl without much real guidance and thrusts her into the middle of a world that at once is exciting, expected, murky, and dangerous: high school dating. Sydney's Vampire Diaries weaves the warning signs of teen dating violence into a believable and infectious story familiar to many girls today even if they are not yet aware of the real vampires among them. I will recommend this to the students I work with on a collegiate level.

I am a teenage girl who has encountered high school vampires. I found this book so relevant as well as entertaining! I loved that I was reading about the life of such a relatable character in a time I am so unfamiliar with. This book is fun, dangerous, exciting and inspiring (and so much cooler than all the lame vampire books out there!) Sydney's story is an important one and teaches girls to stand up for themselves. I will read every book in this series and probably everything Mrs. Alison write
