The Radleys by Matt Haig

“This came out in 2010, and with a film adaptation out this month (starring Damien Lewis, Kelly Macdonald and more), worth another look at this vampire novel with a twist. The Radleys have secret longing for their previous life as hell-raising, wild vampires, but are now a respectable couple in Bishopsworth thank you very much, living life by the guidelines in "The Abstainers Handbook”. Life changes for the Radleys whilst their children are going through puberty: Rowan is the school ‘freak’ who can’t understand why he has to wear SPF60, can’t sleep at night but falls asleep in the day, is constantly hungry and has too much ease translating Faust in class. Clara can’t understand why her vegan diet is making her so sick - then everything takes a darker turn when she is attacked after leaving a party. Plus, the dangers of Thai salads.” — Natasha, Content Sales Lead, ANZ & UK
