Goodreads Blurb:
For Tommy, there is only one thing he needs to do: survive.
Only surviving isn't that easy. The hunt for blood can be tricky when humans know to fear the night. Desire sits on the edge of his mind, urging him to become the monster humans think he is. Vampire Forces, a special branch of police, is determined to turn every vampire to ash. Tommy included.
The only human Tommy can trust is his twin brother. A bond connects them, and with Danny's help, Tommy starts to understand the human world he struggles to survive in. He'll learn what friendships means and feel the sting of betrayal, find that sometimes the worst monsters are very human, and come to understand that family means more than blood.

Review:
There are a lot of vampire books out there, mine included, but I believe that Patricia has created another new, but worthwhile take on 'vampires living amongst
humans'. I thoroughly enjoyed 'Being Human', a story following the
life of a pair of twins, as one of them is turned and one remains human and
struggles to stay connected to his twin.
I liked the way the book began by showing you the violent, unemotional side of the vampires. Depicting them as the blood sucking monsters they have always been, and yet by the end of the novel, you are made to question whether the vampires are as monstorous as the humans who hate them.
A well thought out, engaging read.

Glad you enjoyed it. I admit, I have been HORRIBLE about reading lately. Especially friends books that I want to read. I think the laptop needs to be taken away and the kindle glued to my fingers.
