Fans were disappointed when Stephenie Meyer put an indefinite hold on her plans to release her fifth book, Midnight Sun, in a book format. The book, if you managed to read the online draft, told the story of Twilight from Edward’s perspective.

But never fear. You don’t need to rely on Stephenie Meyer to combat your vampire withdrawal. There are tons (and I mean TONS!) of vampire books hitting the teen bookshelf every month. Of course, who has the time to sift through the masses at book stores, reading the back cover of every eerie-looking book? No one, that’s who! With school reaching its stress climax of the year, free time is few and far between. But that’s no problem because I’ve prepared a list of the latest and greatest vampire books for teens and tweens. Check it out!
