Cathy, Mel and Anna all have different experience (or lack of) and opinions about vampires and everything changes when a male vampire (who was turned at 17 and happens to be a lot older than that) conveniently turns up to attend their high school, ensuring someone (or the whole school) must fall desperately in love with him. Team Human is a hilarious, beautiful book that both celebrates and pokes fun at vampire romance stories. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys YA, romance, vampires, literature, laughing….ĭoesn’t matter if you hate or love vampire stories, this book is for you. Team Human is book that makes you laugh nearly every scene, though I also shed a few tears. However, the characters are people who you care about and relate to, and the plot develops to a satisfactory, if a little surprising, resolution. Team Human parodies the conventions of the paranormal romance genre, of romance in general and specific stories we all know well ( cough Twilight cough). I’ve seen this book called satirical however satire is generally more destructive in my experience (I took a class on Evelyn Waugh, so I feel like this experience is reasonably well founded). Team Human by Justine Larbalestier and Sarah Rees Brennan is a YA paranormal romance novel with a humorous take on just what falling in love with a way old english vampire means for an American teenage girl, and what it means for her friends.
