Bitten by Books
She had not expected anything more than a well-deserved night out with her husband, but when a bizarre accident leaves her a widow in a coma, Jenny Sanders is forced to rethink her life and everyone in it. When she wakens from the coma, nothing is right. She is edgy, has no appetite and is weirdly sensitive to the sun she once loved. But the biggest shock of all is still to come.
Jenny is not happy with the truth of what’s happening to her body. As much as she tries to deny it, she finally has to admit that she was attacked, and turned, by vampires-the vampires that killed her husband, Jeff. To make matters worse, as a teen, she and her then-boyfriend, Jeff, discovered and destroyed a nest of the nasty things. Faced with becoming what she hates the most, Jenny focuses on what matters to her the most: her kids and what is left of her family.
Human No Longer was an interesting and engaging book with a few flaws. I found the plot intriguing and different from your usual vampire fare. The characters were also enjoyable. In particular, I really loved Jenny’s brother, Joey. He was quite a character, loved by everyone who knew him, Jenny and the kids included.
However, at times I found the sentence structure to be awkward and difficult to follow. There were also many errors that could have been easily found and fixed. That said, the story itself was enough to encourage you to finish the novel. Where did these new vampires come from and what did they want? I was definitely interested enough to read until I found out.
Although there were some missteps, Human No Longer was a book worth the read. The strong family dynamic between Jenny, her kids, and her brother’s family gave you reason to root for the good guys, knowing that they were doing it all for each other and the good of the town.
Human No Longer was a quick-paced, fast read that has more to offer than just the ever-present vampires. Sprinkled with family ties, ghosts, and a kitten that seems to be more aware than he should be, you are in for something out of the ordinary.

thank you for reading and liking my Human No Longer. It’s one of my lesser vampire books. I suspect you’d like my The Last Vampire-Revised Author’s Edition better. It was a 2012 Epics EBook Awards Finalist. Warmly, Kathryn Meyer Griffith
