I really liked the other three books in the series, but this one was effing EPIC. There's no way that I can express the awesomeness without spoilers, so just take my word for it--if you read it, it won't be a waste of your time.

This series is a feast. It is an absolute delight to devour each book in the Moganville Saga. If you haven't started at the beginning, waste no time in doing so. The title is "Glass Houses" and each volume gets progressively more intense and more frightening.
In "Feast of Fools", the fourth installment, Claire is terrified to see that her parents have moved to her college town at the same time the World's head honcho vampire has returned there. Claire has pledged her loyalty to Amelie, the head vampire in the town. This ensures herself, and her friends protection to some extent. But even Amalie is frightened of this vampire...he is her father. Suddenly enemies are putting their differences aside, danger is around every corner. Sometimes its hard to tell who to trust.
Adding to the drama, Claire's roomate Michael is struggling to come to terms with his own new vampirism. Eve's brother, a maybe murderer, is coming around way too often. And Claire is spending a lot of time with an unbalanced vampire, while trying to solve the mystery of the disease that is shortening the vamp's lifespans and robbing them of their ability to make other vampires. Life is never dull in Morganville.
The absolute only reason for a four star rating is the cliffhangers that close out each volume.
This series seriously outfangs that 'other' YA vampire series you may have heard about.
Fun Vampire Read September 22, 2008

After finishing the Twilight Saga, I needed something quick and easy to read. I picked up the first one to try and really enjoyed it. If you have read the other three in the series, then this is a must. Fun to read, not too deep for young adults, and interesting enough to get you hooked. I am looking forward to the 5th one coming out the end of the year.

It would seem that Claire Danvers's life couldn't get any worse, what with living in a college town that is also inhabited by vampires who wouldn't think twice about killing her, and having her parents pressuring her to move back in with them when she already lives with her three best friends.
But when Mr. Bishop arrives, things turn positively deadly.
No one's really sure what Mr. Bishop wants -- all they know is that he's more powerful than anyone, possibly even Amelie, and he lacks any good intentions. Everyone is on their guard.
Soon, everyone is buzzing about the upcoming formal ball, and all the humans are clamoring for invites, even Claire and Eve. But this is one party that the breathing might want to pass up.
FEAST OF FOOLS is an exciting, fast-paced, and chilling thriller. Ms. Caine has a real knack for combining a headstrong heroine, nicely creepy happenings, and a dash of romance and intrigue to bring about a knockout novel that'll stun, spellbind, and utterly captivate readers. There's a twist around every corner, and a cliffhanger that will leave readers
desperate for more in this wonderful series that's reminiscent of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
A word of caution: Once you start into THE MORGANVILLE VAMPIRES series, it's impossible to let go.
