Slayed
Author: Amanda Marrone
Publisher: Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing
Release Date: October 5, 2010
Summary (Goodreads):
The Van Helsing family has been hunting vampires for over one hundred years, but sixteen-year-old Daphne wishes her parents would take up an occupation that doesn’t involve decapitating vamps for cash. All Daphne wants is to settle down in one place, attend an actual school, and finally find a BFF to go to the mall with. Instead, Daphne has resigned herself to a life of fast food, cheap motels and buying garlic in bulk.But when the Van Helsings are called to a coastal town in Maine, Daphne’s world is turned upside down. Not only do the Van Helsings find themselves hunting a terrifying new kind of vampire (one without fangs but with a taste for kindergarten cuisine), Daphne meets her first potential BF! The hitch? Her new crush is none other than Tyler Harker, AKA, the son of the rival slayer family.What's a teen vampire slayer to do?

And the teaser:
"She puts the stake down on the bed, folds her hands in her lap, and looks at me like I'm a small child who doesn't know the first thing about hunting. "Daphne, just because the cheap prototype stake works doesn't mean you should ignore the kick-ass, hand-turned, spindle-style, aged-cedar stake with leather covered handle for a 'sure grip.'""- page 88Do you all have a book teaser you'd like to share?
