I'll admit that I picked up the first Casa Dracula based on the name alone. I like happy hour. I like vampires. It was like destiny. Marta Acosta writes with such intelligent humor that you can't help but love lead character Milagro's way of viewing everything around her. I fell in love with this series immediately.
Important Characters to Know
Milagro de los Santos - Fiesty aspiring writer who finds herself drawn into the world of "vampires."
Oswald Grant - Milagro's "vampire" boyfriend. Plastic surgeon.
Edna Grant - Oswald's grandmother and the head of their "vampire" family.
