Book Review - Fat Vampire by Johnny B Truant

Fat Vampire (Fat Vampire, #1)

Fat Vampire by Johnny B. Truant
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Synopsis: When overweight treadmill salesman Reginald Baskin finally meets a co-worker who doesn't make fun of him, it's just his own bad luck that tech guy Maurice turns out to be a thousand-year-old vampire.

And when Maurice turns Reginald to save his life, it's just Reginald's own further bad luck that he wakes up to discover he's become the slowest, weakest, most out-of-shape vampire ever born, doomed to "heal" to his corpulent self for all of eternity.

As Reginald struggles with the downsides of being a fat vampire -- too slow to catch people to feed on, mocked by those he tries to glamour, assaulted by his intended prey and left for undead -- he discovers in himself rare powers that few vampires have… and just in time too, because the Vampire Council might just want his head for being an inferior representative of their race.

My Thoughts: A quick read about an overweight guy who is teased by his office workers and comforts himself with food. This was really easy to relate to and I feel like that's why I was able to sympathize with the MC so much. He finally finds a friend in Maurice but he practically has to die first. And then the fun begins!
