"Mayflower?" At least it's a funny mistake.
* AlternateIdentityAmnesia: Werewolves don't remember anything about when they transform. This actually leads to one common criticism of the book: we never actually see a werewolf transformed, since the story is from Toby's POV and he doesn't remember anything.

!!The sequel provides examples of:
* HappilyAdopted: The fact that Toby is adopted is only mentioned briefly, and he's a bit of a MommasBoy.
* MagicalSeventhSon: Werewolves are all seventh sons, born into certain families that were originally from Spain and Portugal. Toby is a bit of an exception: he apparently has six ''biological'' older brothers, but was raised as an only child.
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: All werewolves have this, being {{Magical Seventh Son}}s. Toby's friend Amin as well.
* TropaholicsAnonymous: At the end of the book, Reuben, Toby and Sergio start their own spin-off of the vampire's support group.

[[quoteright:328:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/51o_6nz5wil.jpg]]
A 2009 novel by Catherine Jinks about a group of {{Vegetarian Vampire}}s. In this universe, vampires are not [[VampiresAreSexGods sex gods]], or even particularly powerful. In fact, being a vampire is basically like being chronically ill for all eternity. The vampires in the titular group don't want to harm humans, so they survive on guinea pigs and enzyme supplements. They have support group meetings every Tuesday. Then, one day, Casimir, the vampire who sired most of them, doesn't show up. He's found staked in his apartment. It's up to the Reformed Vampire Support Group to investigate the murder.
As of 2011, there is a sequel, ''The Abused Werewolf Rescue Group''.

* AssholeVictim: Casimir. He turned most of them and was kind of a prick, so nobody's actually ''sad'' that he's dead -- only concerned that the slayer will go after the rest of them.
* BadassNormal: Father Ramon (a priest who looks after the vampires) and Estelle (the protagonist's mother).
* BoomerangBigot: Nina, the main character, often complains about her fellow vampires' (and her own) frailty, apathy, revolting eating habits and constant bickering.
* ColorMeBlack: [[spoiler: Barry and Dermid, who look down on paranormals and make a living exploiting them in gruesome ways, are turned into vampires by the end of the novel.]]
