A fun, sweet romance. The ending was a bit rushed, and I wish the characters had to work for their happy ending a little more, but overall, a nice time.

What happens when your roommate is a hot vampire? You get a cute story much like this one. The female lead finds out her roommate is a vampire and tries to help him adjust to the new world he wakes up in, only to find that she's falling head over heels for him.

Delightfully cheesy, “My Roommate is a Vampire” is a quick paranormal rom com that was genuinely humorous and quirky. It follows Cassie, a down on her luck artist that needs a place to live and Frederick, an adorably clueless accidental kumquat conjuror... I mean vampire, who is trying to navigate the modern world. The two characters have great chemistry and banter through their interactions and written notes which kept the book at a quick pace and made me not want to put it down.

I look forward to future books from Levine and would recommend this one to anyone who likes a goofy vampire and a classic rom com.

I absolutely loved and adored this book! This had everything I love to read in a rom-com and even gave the magical element of vampires. This one didn't get very deep but it did have some lessons to learn in the book. I really loved how they grew as individuals as well as a couple. I also liked how the female main character had to be the one to save the male main character instead of the other way around because that's how it is in most books!

Was this book silly? Maybe. Was it entertaining? Absolutely. Would I read it again? Yes.

A great, quick read that was very much entertaining. Loved it!

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book! The title and this beautiful cover drew me in and i was excited to read this book! I will be recommending this book to others for readers advisory.

I loved this short, quick read! Blew through it in one sitting. I can't wait to read what's next from Jenna Levine!

Its a DNF for me unfortunately, I wasn't expecting anything too amazing but the writing style just wasn't it for me.

I ended up not finishing this book, as it was not for me. I won't be featuring it on my blog. Thank you for the opportunity to read and review.

This book is a fun concept and it was fun to read during Halloween, but it wasn't my favorite romance ever. I think I had trouble getting used to the concept of the vampire in the modern world, so some parts were confusing to me. I recommend if you want a fun, different holiday read during Halloween and if you list books with vampires.

I was soooo amped for this book, and while I wasn't disappointed, I did end up feeling a little meh?

I will say, if you are coming to this book for a silly campy time, you will not be disappointed. It is 1000% goofy, but not to a degree that is offputting, which I really liked!

However, I did have some issues that made me dnf. It's a 1st person POV from only one MC (with text messages from the other MC), and 1st person POV is something I struggle with in romance -- so that was a me issue, not an issue with the book. But I do think that POV made it a little hard to connect with the male MC. I also felt very little chemistry between the MC's -- there's a few awkward scenes between them bc at that point they're literally strangers, but by the time I dnf'ed, I still wasn't buying the build towards a relationship.

Also, in the vein of the campiness, while I think it mainly worked, I felt kinda weird about the male MC's social ineptitude after he reveals that he's been asleep for 100 years. It doesn't so much feel like Unaware Of Modernity, and more like This Guy Is Autistic. Which would be delightful, if it didn't feel like his ineptitude was supposed to be part of the punch line?? Idk. It didn't feel horrible, but it did feel weird.

Overall, if you're into paranormal romance with 1st person POV, this might be up your alley. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't love it either. But I do think there are readers who it would delight!

I love paranormal romances, but I haven't read a romcom one until now. It was a fun romp to read! I enjoyed the characters and dialogue.

A super cute paranormal rom-com that answers the question “How do you get a love interest who acts like Mr. Darcy into a 21st century romance?” (The answer: make your MMC a vampire who’s been asleep for the last 100+ years.) There is much historical romance- and Kdrama-esque pining (and our MMC even says at one point that he got his wardrobe inspiration from watching Crash Landing on You). This makes for a pretty G-rated romance aside from one scene around the 80% mark. Overall, an enjoyable piece of fluff.

This is more of a 3.5. I feel like the side plot with his family got a little off the rails. Also the idea of such a cheap apartment not giving her red flags just threw me off the story right away. I know its about vampires so not realistic but it was just such a weird occurrence that I couldn't take it serious.

The entire concept of this book was hilarious. Cassie is looking for a new place to live and comes across an ad in the newspapers offering a suspiciously low-priced rental apartment. When she moves in her new roommate acts weird -- he only comes out at night, keeps blood in the fridge and leaves her notes written in Darcy-esque English. That's because he's a VAMPIRE. I am so glad to see vampires are back in the romance genre, this book was so fun. I hope we get to read a book about Reggie too!

A fun and quick read for those looking for a unique romance book. The vampire roommate adds a new twist to the forced proximity trope and the anachronisms of Frederick compared to the modern sensibilities of Cassie gave a silly and charming air to the book's dialogue. Recommended for those who enjoy lighthearted, romantic reads with enjoyable characters.

This book was so much FUN! I really enjoyed the array of quirky characters with just an air of mystery.

I enjoyed that this book didn’t take itself too seriously and was able to make me believe in the friendship and growth between Cassie and Fredrick.

I did keep wondering at the end whatever happened to resolve those headlines of blood bank robberies though.

Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley for the E-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I ate this book up. It was a perfect early fall read. The authors writing style makes the story so enjoyable. I loved the characters and their interactions with each other. Lots of laugh out loud moments for sure. This author will be an instant read for me. Can’t wait to see what they come out with next!

Thanks to NetGalley and the author for an ARC of this title

I need it to be very clear that although I enjoyed this book thoroughly I hated the male lead.
I know that he is meant to be written as someone born in a different time/from a different time but I just did not like him at all. However this story was cute and I enjoyed the mix of romance and suspense and horror tropes that it brought in and I can see this being extremely popular with the younger audience that I see at my library.
