Ever wondered what it's like to be a vampire? 
 
To be super strong, super fast and super naughty? To sleep all day and party all night? Cool, right? 
 
But what if you're only half-vampire? Super awkward, super anxious and super allergic to garlic dip? 
 
I'm Moth and this is the story of how my sucky life got kinda better thanks to a girl called Mina, a plant called Gary and my best friend Biscuit (who is a bat). 
 
Fangs for reading!
