Lady & the Vamp


“Barkley, did you think Lady & the Vamp was funny?”


“Woof!”


“Barkley, was the part where Quinn was asking you if you located Janie’s sister, funny as hell?’


“Woof!”


Yes, this is how the conversation goes between Quinn and Barkley, who happens to be in werewolf form, when Quinn questions him about Janie’s sister. I thought this was the funniest part of the book and laughed through the whole conversation. Michelle Rowen is so clever. I really enjoyed Lady & the Vamp.


It was an interesting read and finding out Quinn’s story after reading about him in the Immortality Bites series was an enjoyable adventure. Rowen has more funny lines in the book. Another part that cracked me up was when the demon Boss has Janie and Quinn comes to save her. Quinn throws the red stone at the demon Boss expecting him to catch it, but it hits the Boss in the face. Hilarious!


The whole love thing between Barkley and Janie’s sister, Angela, and Lenny amused me. You’ll have to read the book to see how that love triangle worked out. Lenny’s poetry is hysterical. I don’t know what is funnier “Why Vampires are Bad” or his poem about Janie or how Janie reacts to Lenny reading the poetry to her. I’m laughing as I recall all of it.



I read on Rowen’s website that if the Immortality Bites series went to the big screen she has Hugh Jackman in mind to play Thierry. I had to think about that. Hugh is S-E-X-Y and after much thought I could see him as Thierry. As I read Lady & the Vamp, I kept picturing Ryan Phillippe as Quinn. Besides being extremely, blond cuteness, like Quinn is described (by the way, Why is there a dark haired guy on the cover of Lady & the Vamp when Quinn is blond?) and Phillippe would portray the whole depression about being a vampire well.


Who would play Barkley? I need to give more thought about who would play him. But Barkley’s leg humping issues, you guessed it, FUNNY!
