Review of In the Blood (Paperback)

The back of this book says it's a roller coaster ride and they aren't kidding. I never read such a wild story -- very romantic, very funny, but also really sad, really scary, and REALLY erotic!!Also, there's some pretty gory stuff. But somehow this guy pulls it altogether and makes it work. I loved this book. I hated when I got to the end because I was so into these characters and this story. I totally reccommend this book if you don't mind the explicit sexual stuff and the gory stuff. It's a great vampire story but it's also a wonderful romance story.

Product Description
An unlikely romance between a hematologist and a vampire in the early years of the AIDS pandemic is the focus of Scott Miller's genre-defying riff on vampire legends, American pop culture, and horror fiction. Part romance, part gothic horror, part comedy, part steamy eroticism, it crosses all boundaries and ends up an entertaining roller coaster ride you won't soon forget.
