Twelfth Grade KIlls by Heather Brewer

One problem with having a giant stack of books to read, most of them library books, is that it took me a shamefully long time to get here. I actually don't know how long it's been since I read the previous book in this series which made getting back into it a challenge. Eleventh Grade Burns apparently was a cliff hanger. I was a bit discombobulated when I started this one but I caught back on soon enough.

If you haven't read the previous books, stop reading now.

The start of this book is marked by the return of Vlad's long "dead" father, Tomas. Vlad thinks he is going crazy. His father died in a fire years before. Why would he see him now? He spends some time searching for his father and thinking he is crazy before he finds him. Now, things seem like they should be right.

But they aren't.

Vampires keep dying and Vlad keeps finding evidence that it may be Otis's doing. His trial is coming up and, if that weren't bad enough, if Joss doesn't slay him the Slayer Society will cleanse the town. Snow is now attending Bathory High, filling Vlad with guilt and confusion, and Eddie Poe is determined to become a vampire.

Needless to say, with so much going on every chapter is action packed. I read this one quickly, sometimes accidentally getting sucked into chapters at a time when I only meant to read one or two. I think that this was a fitting end to the series.
