Youngblood

“Prepare to fall in love with a whole new kind of vampire. Equal parts swoony and mysterious, Youngblood is so, so, so much fun.” —Jessica Goodman, New York Times bestselling author of They’ll Never Catch Us and The Counselors

“This book bites – in the best possible way! Seeped in vampire lore but existing in its own fresh, new world, Youngblood delivers a slow-burn boarding school romance while its central mystery has the pages almost turning themselves.” —Kelly deVos, author of Eat Your Heart Out and Go Hunt Me

“A fresh new take on vampires, with a compelling mystery and a romance that will keep you turning pages long into the night. I was immediately hooked by Kat and Taylor’s story—ex-best friends forced together as roommates, fighting their feelings at a school full of secrets, drama, and the undead. Youngblood is everything you could ever want in a boarding school book—plus vampires!” —Cameron Lund, author of The Best Laid Plans and Heartbreakers and Fakers

“Youngblood is an achingly sweet queer romance, a creepy as hell mystery, and a thoughtful, chilling portrayal of how vampirism might exist in the modern age of capitalism. This is the lesbian vampire boarding school story I’ve always needed, but it’s smarter, nastier, and more fun than I ever could have dreamed.” —Kylie Schachte, author of You’re Next

“A boarding school mystery with family drama, deep secrets, and an unyielding social conscience—Youngblood is the new generation of vampires you’ve always needed!” —Andrea Contos, author of Tell Me No Lies

“What a book! Youngblood is mesmerizing and original, with tightly-drawn characters, a mystery that had me obsessively turning the pages and a romance that had me screaming: now kiss! This is the queer vampire boarding school book of your dreams. —Cale Dietrich, bestselling author of The Love Interest and If This Gets Out.

“The mystery elements in this fun spin on boarding school stories and vampire lore are exciting, but the messy relationship drama creates the most intrigue…Frothy, angst-y fun.” – Kirkus Reviews

★ “[A] vibrant, voice-driven paranormal romance….Laurens elevates this fresh look at vampire society, which is briming with classic boarding school tropes, by astutely tackling timely issues, including homophobia and classism.” – Publishers Weekly (starred review)
