Description

Just because Mel lives in a city founded by vampires, doesn't mean she knows any of the blood-drinking undead personally. But when her best friend falls in love with one, it's up to Mel to save her from a mistake she might regret for all eternity Add in a mysterious disappearance, a cranky vampire cop, a number of unlikely romantic entanglements, and the occasional zombie, and soon Mel is hip-deep in an adventure that is equal parts hilarious and poignant.

Praise for Team Human…

Laugh-out-loud funny, heart-wrenchingly sad and fist-pump-in-the-air triumphant, this sparkling gem proves that vampires, zombies and even teenagers … at heart, we’re all on Team Human.
-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

The authors both uphold the conventions of the contemporary vampire romance and comment on it.
-Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) (Starred Review)

Smart and entertaining. Themes of honest friendship and freedom of choice mix with zombies, accidental romance, a diverse and complex cast, and sharply funny dialogue to create a thoroughly enjoyable read with a core of unexpected depth.
-Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Team Human is both fearsome and funny, a fresh entry in the popular genre.
-The Horn Book

A witty, comedic parody that adds a fresh idea to the teen vampirenovel trend.
-Booklist

The perfect blend of humor, heart, brains (braaaaaaaainssss?) and thrills.
-Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

A witty story of friendship that has a poignancy that is rare, coupled with a dry humor that is truly laugh-out-loud funny.
-School Library Journal

Funny, scary, touching, and thoughtful in ways you’d never expect: if you love vampire books, this is the book for you—if you hate vampire books, this is also the book for you.
-Maureen Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of The Name of the Star

No matter what team you’re on, there are characters here you’ll cheer for. Suspense, humor, and romance: Team Human has it all!
-Claudia Gray, New York Times bestselling author of Evernight

Incredibly fresh and original—and absolutely charming.
-Cory Doctorow, New York Times Bestselling author

I could not be more a fan of this book than if I had a TEAM HUMAN cheerleader outfit ... brilliant, funny, sharply emotional!
-Rachel Caine, New York Times bestselling author of the Morganville Vampire
