* I just read the delightful, Team Human. It has an intelligent, snarky, relatable main character who happens to be a young woman of colour. It's a mystery that rather deconstructs novels like Twilight while presenting a believable alternate universe in which vampires are part of society. I really liked this, even though I guessed the mystery quite early along with the other plot twists. Seriously, the narrative voice was charming and it was a pleasant read.
