The Vampire of Maple Town, about Charlie the vampire, was very slow. Very, very slow. The parts of the world and the premise was interesting - a vampire who lives alone and is the town doctor suddenly adopts/makes a vampire boy- and parts, such as the lovely bird. 

But, for me, the story was overall very slow moving. I found myself constantly distracted. The writing was fine, it just wasn't compelling.

Marvelous. I loved it. I loved the characters; I loved the setting; I loved the character relationships. But one this I loved the most was the writing. It was such a smooth and whimsical contemporary style, it fitted in so well with the basis of the plot and setting.

The characters, although not all were likeable, were shown in such depth. I absolutely loved the conversations and interactions between the characters and unfolding another aspect of their personality everytime. 

I would recommend this book to people who like contemporary writing with strong characters and interesting plot.
