About this eBook

Sixteen-year-old Lucy Szabo is Undead -- at least according to her own theories about vampirism. Lucy believes that the first vampires -- with their pale skin, long teeth, and uncontrollable thirst -- were dying diabetics. And she should know. She's a diabetic herself.
When Lucy becomes involved with Draco -- a self-proclaimed "real" vampire she meets in the Transylvania Internet chat room -- her world begins crashing down around her. Caught up in late-night parties and Goth culture, she begins to lose control of her grades, relationships, and health. Lucy realizes she needs to make some important choices, and fast. But it may already be too late.

Ratings and reviews

This book is amazing! It shows how dangerous it can be if you 1)Have Diabetes and dont watch out and 2)Trust too much in the people you meet online! I deffinatly suggest this book to all teen-age readers.

I fell in love with this book and read it six seven times before I sadly had to get rid of the only copy I've found until now

I loved it then because I was into vampires, and I am a type 1 diabetic. Would definitely recommend this to teenage diabetics.
