Baby Teeth: A Novel

Product Information

Upon first glance, this book seems angsty, dramatic, and queer-friendly. As I read on, I became more and more disappointed. For those not looking for spoilers, do not read on. Before reading this book, I was intrigued by the idea of a lesbian vampire romance written by a queer author. I am from Washington State in the United States, so I am all for vampire-centered romance because of Stephanie Meyer's books that came out during my teenage years. In addition to this, Meg Grehan may have taken inspiration from the Irish writer, Sheridan Le Fanu who wrote Carmilla, in the early 1800s, which created the first written representation of lesbian vampire romance in Ireland.

Review: Baby Teeth by Zoje Stage | The Nerd Daily Review: Baby Teeth by Zoje Stage | The Nerd Daily

Forget about solving all these crimes; the signal triumph here is (spoiler) the heroine’s survival. Grehan’s main difference from these well known vampire literature is that the vampires reincarnate, rather than live in the same body for eternity. This main difference makes the book stand out from it’s influences, however if the book wasn’t written in prose, the readers may be able to get more out of it. When reading about the reincarnation she left plot holes such as how the main character finds the two other vampires she lives with. She simply leaves it as they eventually find each other, which doesn’t make much sense. Does this mean all of them go into the adoption system and can only find each other once they’re grown? She mentions that the two other vampires are older than her, so does this mean they are always old enough to adopt her by the time she’s born?She falls for Claudia who works at a local florist and this love story is messy, beautiful, comforting, confusing… there are so many emotions but the writing puts them across in the best way. There’s nothing scarier than loving a child and not understanding what they’re trying to tell you—” She wants Hanna to go to school like other children. She wants her to learn how to play nice and interact with others.
