It's a small college town filled with quirky characters. But when the sun goes down, the bad comes out. Because in Morganville, there is an evil that lurks in the darkest shadows - one that will spill out into the bright light of day.

When Claire heads off campus, the imposing old house where she finds a room may not be much better. Hew new roommates don't show many signs of life. But they'll have Claire's back when the town's deepest secrets come crawling out, hungry for fresh blood...
Review:
This series is one of my favourites.... Its all so one of the first series i started reading.Its a story where 4 people band together to become there own little family who band together to fight the vampires of the town..
CLAIRE Is a 16 year old girl.. who moves to a college a head of her years... But when she gets there she finds out its not a normal town.. she finds out the town is run by vamps....When she moves into her dorm room she ends up getting picked on by some of the local girls, so she has to find somewhere else to live. she then moves in with eve/micheal/shane...Which ends up being one of the best things she could do, because not only does she find 3 really great friends but a totally hot befriend.. It ends up that claire has to use her brains to get the guys out of trouble with the vamps....
SHANE Total bad boy, had to move from morganville because of his sisters death, when he moved away his mother ended up found dead in a bath, which made shane move back to morganville to get revenge....He moved in with best friend micheal and goth girl eve...There he meets claire and finds he cant keep away from her...He does everything in his power to keep her safe....
EVE-Goth girl of the group with a very funny sense of humor...I love her to bits and I would love for her to be a friend of mine....She is very willing to kick some butt for the sake of her friends.. She takes claire in and then she soon becomes good friends with her, feeling the need to look after her...
MICHEAL-Sexy and charming, micheal has a very big secret he keeps from his friends ...Turns out he is a half ghost who is trapped in his house....He comes to the rescue of his friends when ever he can but finds it hard because he cant leave the house....It kills him when claire is in trouble and he cant get there to help her.....
over all I love this book, iv read it over and over again and no doubt ill read it again...Id def tell you guys to give these books a try. They do start off a bit slow so you must fight through it till you get to the good part.But i promise you once you get into it you will love them..As the series goes on the just keep getting better.
