Life isn't easy for Johnny Shapiro, despite his mother's success as the author of a book about his Lakota grandfather. He finds it hard to "fit in" in his new school--until he meets Rebecca, a new student as well, and the half-human daughter of a vampire.
Great Book for young adults; its not about vampires

I enjoyed this book. I enjoyed the relationship between the grandfather and Johnny. This book is not about vampires but about the alienation that is experienced because of ones race. Johnny is Native American who finds it difficult to understand what that means; and Rebecca is half human and half vampire who finds it tempted to blend into the human world despite the pressures from her vampire world. This book explores the challenges they experience and the solutions they try to come up with. Great book.
Uniquely Gothic

The Vampire's Beautiful Daughter is about a teenage boy named Johnny who realizes that his identity crisis is miniscule compared to Rebecca, the exotically beautiful half-vampire who has only a few days to choose whether she should be a vampire or remain mortal. Together, the two diverse teens each find their own painfully right paths. This book has humorous twists on the serious realities of being different.
A Great love Story with a modern gothic twist

I thought The Vampire's Beautiful Daughter was an excellent book. I picked it up and read it all the way through without stopping. It's about a boy who moves to a new town and has to go to a different school. He meets. well, a half-vampire. He falls in love with her and screws up her choice to stay half human or become a full vampire. You'll have to read it to find out the details, but I truly reccommend it.
